Is it the motor thats toast or the efi system. The only thing off that lude that'll give you more power is the efi, but you'll still need some LX-i parts (fuel pump, fuel lines, harness is easier to work with if its from an LX-i) to make it all work.

I hear Prelude wipers will give you a good 14.65Hp bump http://forums.off-topic.net/images/smilies/dunno.gif

Ooops forgot about the trans, silly me. Oh the wipers only do that if you only use one, paint it yellow, and have it sticking strait up on your winshield. It'll be bumbed up to 15hp if you get a double blade and a wind deflector for it.

If the transmission and engine are dead, then no parts will swap
you can maybe take the steering wheel and the shift knob out of it.. maybe make the front seats fit but that's all
This car is of no help for your Accord.

I use a lude trans in mine.
This is the trans after a bit of cleanup

And this is the trans bolted to the motor just before I droped it in.

Thats a 1.8 prelude trans, not an Si, but either works. The Si trans will go right on, even useing your existing clutch and flywheel. The cases are identical, just the guts are diferent. You wont even be able to tell them apart when they are sitting next to each other.
