i searched for a hatchback for 6 months. At first i searched for an EG style hatchback because of the cheaper price, but i had no luck finding a good deal. i found this one a couple weeks ago in an autotrader. i bought it for 5500 out the door from a dealership. it is in perfect condition.. no dents or dings!! and perfect interior!! it will stay stock till i buy a type r engine.

Dude that's pretty cheap. Especially w/a ITR motor. Spending like about 10g's for a pretty fast car.

I realize you said no exterior mods but I would recommend getting the oem chin spoiler, it finishes off the front end even on a stock civic. Thats my only exterior mod and I love it, the front doesnt look so lifted anymore. For 60 bux or whatever they go for from the dealer cant go wrong. Nice color

Hey bro, nice car!

Your first mod choice (the Type R motor) is a good choice, but trust me on this one:

You will NEED better brakes and certainly some better suspension soon after your swap.

I have a B18C5 in my 1992 CX and I love it - would not trade it for any other set-up. If you have any questions on what you'll need for the swap, or how mine's turned out for me, then just IM me here.

http://www.hondamotorsonline.com

They are selling Type R swaps for $4,800.00 on that site.

I have a 98 Slvr CX. had to get it after wreking my teg on I-4 still saving up cash to do some stuff on it. hit me up at pucho45@earthlink.net if you wana hook up or need some help with work on the car, These F#$^& shops aroud here thing the have gold hands and charge you waaaay to much for there work. stay away from R.A.S and speed and truck world they suck I you want a reputable shop go to Velocity resources in APK.
