there isn't a such thing as a JDM B16A2 and what do you mean hydraulic? The only JDM B16A's are the first gen B16A which is a cable transmission, 160 hp and OBD-0, the second gen B16A which is a hydraulic transmission, 170 hp and OBD-1 and the B16B which is found in the Civic Type-R and is hard to find and EXPENSIVE and 185 hp. The B16A2 has a hydraulic transmission and so does your car if that's what you were saying about "hydraulic". When you buy a swap, typically you will get all the needed parts like motor, ECU, transmission, axles, wiring harness and exhaust manifold. Be sure to find out if all these parts come with the motor!! Also FYI, the B-series (ANY B series) motors are very easy to swap into a 5th gen Civic!! You don't have to buy any aftermarket mounts or anything like you have to do with various other swaps and the axles work perfect.
