Default WTT/WTS: '98 EK Coupe Mildwest

I'm looking to trade or sell my '98 EK Coupe. What I'm looking for is an EF, EK, or EG with a clean swap, preferably or a well-done turbo motor.

The specs on my car are:
'98 EK Coupe, EX model
Little less than 90k mi.
RSR ExMag Exhaust
H/R Sport Springs with Toicko Blue Shocks
P/S and A/C were removed in anticipation of a swap
(I still have all the components less the lines needed if interested in swapping those back in)

The good:
The car runs very strong, and gets 34-38 MPG. I've gotten 400 mi. tanks and this is with a 10.7 or so gal. tank.
The car is stock other than mods listed.
The car handles very nicely with the slight drop and upgraded shocks.

The negative:
The bumper has a small crack in it that mildly affects it's alignment with the rear quater panel, pictured. I've already bought the OEM bumper from Honda to replace this, and was qouted $175 by Maaco to have it color matched to the car. I was planning on doing this after winter.
Back rear spring has small squeak in it. It doesn't bother me much because it doesn't always make noise, but just being up front.

PICS are on their way!@!

The car looked very good a few months ago with JDM Idea Wheels. Unforrtunately, I sold these to a buddy of mine.

Just looking to go in a different direction, maybe...if there's not any interest, I'll just throw the LS swap in there.

If I threw the LS swap in there, I'd have to turbo the bitch and keep it.

I think I'm just going to man up and throw the damn motor in there. Parts left to get: only intermediate shaft, shift linkage, and axles.
