Colin is right.

It will be cheaper probably to sell the 2002, and buy an rsx, than to swap the 2002.

Swapping would require the
-engine
-transmission
-harness
-ecu
-axles
-brake knuckles
-custom engine mounts
-exhaust system

plus your time or more money to pay someone.

It would be the same for the B series, but you would also have to worry about wiring that is quite old and my brake in places, old rubber vacuum lines, and possible distributor issues.

If you really love your car then do it. but the rsx-s is far nicer and these days very affordable. The doors close nicer, as well as the rear hatch, the interior materials look and feel nicer.
