dont orget you need customized ($120 or so if you make your own) axles if this is going into a civic. and as far as the radiator fan i bought mine at autozone, just asked for an electric fan for my radiator and looked at a few then chose one. Also throw in $20-50 for an injector resistor pack if you dont have one already.
If you dont have suspension upgrades your front end is gonna bounce quite a bit too.
usually when doing a swap with au sed engine its a good idea to put in a new clutch new timing belt, new water pump new thermostat and a few other things that are easier to replace with then engine out, every swap i have bought has had a worn clutch...

i was debating on the worn clutch issue. i figured my clutch didnt go out til 110k. and these engines only have 20-40k so i thought i'd be ok. i have front upgrades already. tokico blues with maxspeed coilovers. im gonna need to look up injector resister pack cuz i dont know wat tat is. can i get custom axles made online? i was gonna go with the accord intermediate shaft and teg axles, but i read tat fits with the place racing kit. not sure bout hcp but i assume its the same. if someone knows the price of a new timing belt. plz let me know so i can upgrade my price list. so far its at 3450 including the new clutch.

the timing belt kits are usually not that much, maybe a lil over 20? its just all the labor, time, and work to get to it when its in the car that racks it up to 500.

Best bet save up 1,000 more then your final cost. If you don't like surprises don't do a swap =) there is always surprises. Its always better to have a little more money then your going to need opposed to not having enough. Good luck

raxles can custom make axles for you they are brand new and will run like $170 a side i think.
problem with the integra inner joints is the passenger side one pops out cause it is shorter than the lude inner splines.

i did my swap all my self, and my total cost of parts (not including the car) was about $4000, which also included a NEW radiator cause the single core DX one wont cut it...i bought an ex auto one i think since it was dual core and fit perfect.

for what i spent i could have done a b16a swap boosting 10psi.
