USDM EG Civics came with either a d15 (DX, CX,) or a d16 (SI, VX) both SOHC. JDM EG's came with b16a's

why bother importing one? just buy one that is a pOS, and drop a b series motor into it, like a b18c1 that would be o so much fun indeed

The b series only came in the 99-00 SI's in the US. You don't have to spend all the money to import a JDM to have a b16 in a hatch. Buy the car, and buy a b16 drop it in its easy because the car is designed to have that motor in it, Honda simply changed the motor for the USDM cars. Also look into motors before you do this, you can get an h22 for less and be much faster and have much much more potential. But look into it and find out what is best for you.
