also make sure everything is legit. Lots of stolen R parts going around. Just look for the vin plates on the trans and bottom of block. Only US motors have these. However the JDM ITR motor will only say B18C, not B18C5. So if its B18C5, it better have a vin plate.

How much does a Stock 96 Civic Dx cost? take that price and add 5k to it...(this is the average price of a ITR swap) if it is still less than that then you might get a good deal, but unless you have the cash you won't fine a bank to finance a 14k for a used civic. If I were you I'd find a cheap Civic and do an engine swap. For example a used 92 ex Civic will run you about 4-6k used engine will have alot of mile on it but who cares swap it for a nice b18c1 or c5 or even a b16a... at most you'll spend 11k (ITR in a 6k ex) you get the whole power package too. Just to give you an Idea. Don't get ripped off.
