RE: eg b18b swap
should all be there if both cars are complete. youll probably need a few new things, like axles. and a new timing belt and water pump are a lot easier to install when the engine is sitting on the floor, vs installed in the engine bay. same with a new clutch.

yeah, you can use the teg stuff, its just that it will fail at some point, and so it is a huge timesaver to just replace them while the engine is out. if you cant afford to buy the parts now, wait till you can. if you can afford a timing belt and water pump, you dont want to tear into your car, because things come up that will need replacing. i made that mistake on my first swap, and once i got it running , i backed it out for the test drive, and coolant was pouring everywhere, so i had to pull it back in and wait a couple of days for a new waterpump and t belt, then take yet another day to install it. then after a couple of months of driving it with the swap, the clutch disc came apart, and i was up until like 2 am replacing it so i could get up at 5 am to go to work. trust me, its well worth the cost to just have those things out of the way.
