i dont know mych about that, ur right lol, but if he has a rare car, i wouldnnt reccomend him trading it for another car and to keep his rims and a blown up motor... i would just build it up and if they want it, they can pay top dollar for it.

I find it funny how the guy wanted to take the engine out of your current car, and put it in the car you would be receiving. He knew the block was bad, but was willing to fk you over. Sounds like an AWESOME guy.
And since you have a rare car, use it to your advantage. If someone wants to trade, trade UP, not even. Get a much better ride, if possible.
And if you do end up keeping the hatch, I recommend an alarm. If the people REALLY want it, whats to keep them from just taking the damn thing?

Yea, that's really not bad at all. A stock B16A2 has 158bhp, less torque than the built D, and costs more than 2k, yes?

True. Question is if OP would want more power or not. Now, as I'm not sure of the roads on his island, I can't make full comment of the ability to use more power. I know that some of the islands have more twisty roads than straights. Not much chance to get up on it.
IMO - good torque and lots of curves - great fun =)

Update....So I found another Hatch 95, everything bonestock....LIKE A VIRGIN !!! Got my mechanic, took it for a spin and my mechanic said it is excellent, get it and swap all your parts from the other car. So it's going for 2500, managed to talk him down to 2300. Should be getting it sometime this week. Can't wait. Only thing, it dont have sunroof ( to bad to sad. Did I mention, the interior looks as though it just came out of the showroom. No smoky scent or nothing. Only thing that needs to change is the pully and bearing from the a/c compressor, the engine mounts and the tie rods. All these I can pull from my hatch.
