I really wanna swap my engine for a B16a2 engine from an old EG. IV got a 1.5VEi eg atm ukspec but wanna know how much work it will require? will it just drop in or will i need to change the ECU, hubs, driveshafts that sort of thing?

if you hatch came with a d-series in it the d15 will swap right over everything is reusable. it you go with the b16 you will need new axles ,motor mounts, shift linkage, wire in vtec and ecu

Yea i think my engine is the D15z1.
So to put a b16a2 engine in i would need to change alot of stuff??

not really a lot of stuff but you will spend a fair amount more swapping in a b16a.
