Default HELP! What engine should I choose

I'm saving for an engine swap but I don't know what to buy. I have a 2000 Civic hatch and I have alot of options but I thinking about.
1.) GSR complete swap
2.) CTR changeover and complete swap
3.) ITR (JDM) changeover and complete swap or (USDM) swap
4.) B20 Vtec with custom parts

But I want to keep in OBD 2 ecu unless someone can tell me why OBD 1 would be better.
What tranny or gear set should I use ?

Or should I work on my 1990 240sx that just rotting away (A Future Silvia conversion)

Get the R if you have the funds. Not even a question to ask.

whoops, didn't see that.

get the b20vtec. there's no replacement for displacement. if you want a full package, get the jdm itr. 98+ spec.

and the rsx-r is rather difficult to mount, as only people have fabricated it so far.
