Not much of a B16 fan personally, but if you are insistant on swapping it, you can use basically everything off of your motor.... alternator, axles, mounts, transmission (although it would be better for you to find a b16 transmission), shift linkage, starter, ac will bolt up, ps may not but could probably be modified slightly to work (not sure if there are issues because of the difference in deck height), stock harness would work but you will need to run a couple wires for vtec... you will need an OBD-0 PR3 or PW0 ecu to run vtec(those can be toughish to find).
