It's illegal because you can't swap an older engine into a newer car. And you can use the Civic mounts

You can use either the Civic or Integra mounts. Either will work.

Really? So a tranny mount from a civic D15B7 will bolt to both the body and the tranny of a B18C1?

This is exactly right. I don't know why people keep saying that there is no need to change any mounts when you're doing a swap. In fact, I went out to my garage and took off my tranny mount to prove the point:




As you can see, the brackets are different. It's obvious.

The mounts, on the other hand, are interchangeable. In fact, I would use the civic mount insted of the GSR mount because there is a plate on the frame that the civic mount straddles. You would have to cut this off in order to use the GSR mount.

How 'bout that.
