it's simple all you really need are engine, tranny, axles, and ecu everything is pretty much plug and play as far as I know. Well you have to run I think two wires, but pretty straightforward.

There was no JDM B16A2, only a B16A.

Why not just get a USDM B16A3? It was stock in that car and I really don't think the price is all that different.

How different are the sol swaps from the EG swaps?
