-As far as suspension, keep to your stock or get aftermarket for your Civic not the teg.
-In my experience, the only difference between right hand engine (JDM) and left hand engine (USDM) is the wiring harness. The shift linkage and everything else is the same. If you use the harness given to you, everything will probably line up in the opposite side. (I used my stock harness, just had to wire in the vtec because I didn't have one). But you should be fine, since your car is vtec.
-I got most of the info I needed from
www.hybridgarage.com. I just checked their site and it looks like something is up. If I find any other links, I'll post.
-By the way, did you already try checking for some of your info on the stickies on this forum?
