Default 94 Honda Civic Si HB is it worth it?

I know a guy that has a 94 Honda Civic for sale with 17 " Enkei's ....... projectors and an apexi full exhaust. Oh and an H22a prelude engine in her. Is she worth the 5799 he's asking for it? It has 113,000 miles on it.

a bit pricey IMHO esp. since to me the 17" Enkeis are worthless.

Body...not sure much how much is on the engine.....the guy bought it off of Ebay now he wants something else....so i'm not really sure exactly how many are on the engine but the engine alone is worth 2000 bucks

don't know yet....i've been calling all day trying to find out.......i was referred to him. But the body is beautiful. But i'm wondering if the engine has been abused also i know VTEC's can take alot of pounding but i'm not sure how much it has taken so i don't even know if it's worth the risk. I was figuring on offering 4k tops for it.

sure it is, if you buy it from a reputable shop knowing it was recently leakdown/compression checked with nothing but the average Japanese mileage on it.

the motor you're buying has already been swapped into a car (and who knows how well it was doen), and more miles (which you don't even know the amount of) have been put on it. aside from that, you don't know the manner in which the previous ownerS treated the motor. was it raced daily? every weekend? was it maintained properly?
