Sweet find. With the limited number of 97's I would suggest to put it to 100% stock. What are your plans?

Your beginning to sound like a broken record.

Got a buddy in Arkansas selling a HID JDM ITR front end in case your intrested.
Only a few parts are in CW..but most importantly the Rad support is CW and I think the hood.

Good find! Takes me back to 2 years ago when I picked up mine for 8k with blown motor that costed me only 80 bucks to fix. Car had SMSP headers and catback, Toda Spec C's, AEM cam gears and fuel rail, RC 310's, hondata s100, and lots more. I got an absolute steal on it. Put it back together and put down 201 on crappy tune. Good luck and never get rid of it. Hope mine never ends up the way you got that car though.
