You can use the A/C bracket and Tenison Bracket on the side of the tranny. Also you can reuse there throttle cable. Try to find a OBD1 P30 ECU or run a Chipped P28 or PO6

you can use all your stock mounts will have to use your harness and rewire it for vtec since its a 92 the Car is already wired for Vtec you'll need a P28 (OBD1 92-95 civic EX/SI ECU) etc
