Not from what I found on the internet. It has a supper charger, upgrade ignition, upgraded clutch and pressure plate, b & m short throw shifter, custom race header, plus a full exhaust. This engine is out of a 98 integra type r.

good motor to work with.
- i agree go with some si wheels and lose those hx's. though they are good set of wheels
- drop the car about 1.5" i recommend tein s-techs with some kyb shocks. but i'm thinking since your going all out, maybe some adjustable coilovers?
-forget about the si spoilers, go spoiler less.

Um where do you see a hatch? You do realize that's a coupe right? They never made an HX hatch...
To the OP: That's way too much for that engine, even with those mods. Plus you don't know how badly it's been beaten on, for all you know it could be on its last legs. The owner could be lying about what has been done to it and he could have parts installed incorrectly. I would never buy a used engine that's been modified, for that reason. That setup, used, is worth around 4k, 5k MAX and that's with everything in perfect condition. For 6k you could get a used B-Series and boost it yourself (I'd use a turbo instead of a supercharger.) That way you know exactly whats been done to it and you know that everything was put on the right way. Built not bought, FTMFW.
By the way, nice Civic! She's clean as hell. How are you enjoying the awesome gas mileage of the HX? Those wheels look great on there too man; you should paint them white or black and polish the lip.
