all depends on what your plans are either running the a9 on carbs the same as the d14 or converting to injection. if your running carbs its dust a simple engine swop but you will need to find or make a intake manni for the carbs to bolt on, everything else is pretty much state swop. if your thinking of converting to injection you will need a full loom to run threw the car. little more work. personally if i was converting to injection i would spend a little extra and go b series as you will get lots more out of it.
dual carb v-tec yooooooooo! The car's not rusty, its the hair!

soon to be a b series eg coupe. (not permanently though)
