I think you can use crx axels for that. You can ask this site http://www.theintegraforums.com/. These people know a lot about different integra motor swaps. I'm pretty sure it's possible, but I think it's a little harder to find the parts for the first generation integra then the others.

Acura is made by Honda, so you still buying another Honda product. I would do it if you could get a Civic with lower miles and a newer year. Only downside, every other person on the road is driving a Civic, so you'll be blending in with the millions out there, but then, most don't by Civics to stand out.

It all depends on your states laws on motor swaps. In most states you can only put a newer engine oin an older car, not the other way around. Emitions laws get strickter with each new year and to get an older engine to pass laws beyond its time is very costly.

it depends on exactly which engine is in each car...i believe with the standard engines it should be fine, adding a turbo might be the hard part, you might have to move somethings in the engine around. but yes i believe it should be very possible
