id go with the JDM b16a1, yes there pricey but well worth it.
If you can do a b18 type R head, with a GRS tranny.
overall yes your gonna pay for it but in a crx that setup
is nearly untouchable!

only reason i know,
is because i have the same setup
minus the GSR tranny but it still rips!

What are your goals for this project? And what will the car be used for?

Drag racing, AutoX, etc...?
