direct fit.

you need:
motor complete with sensors
tranny
prb ecu or current ecu with kpro - if prb ecu to be reprogrammed by your honda dealership
minor dremeling on the gearbox to allow you to get into reverse (not everyone needs to do this, seems inconsistent)

not mandatory: probably a good time to upgrade parts in your bay as well... like mounts and radiator hoses.

i'll be doing the swap soon as well and i'll be getting a new header. rsx header will not work with stock cat/mid-pipe. might as well do those while you're in there.
