if you check out the latest honda-tuning magazine, they point out a couple of ideas for the older civic/crx chassis. there was an idea in there to turbocharge a D16 which you may want to look into if you want to budget-boost.

http://www.redpepperracing.com Everything you need to know. IMHO keep the rear drum brakes and swap in the entire drivetrain/front suspension from a 1g teg.
