So my gf blew a head gasket so I bought her another engine (d15b2) from Attarco in San Fransisco. They ended up sending me a jdm d15b bottom with a b2 head. Had to do a little wire modification. I also ended up using the energy engine mount inserts on this swap and they make the world of a difference.

Her car puts more power down to the ground than it di before and it actually increased mpg since the engine/transmission is not bouncing around in the engine bay anymore.

I have been in japan for the last three week and as soon as I head back to the states, I'm going to start my swap! wish me luck, I have everything that I need now.
