Re: Engine swap
Illegal in most areas to swap an older engine into a newer car. And you would need a bunch of custom work. Better off to get another 6th gen

It's been done, but it's a TON of custom fab.
As for the emissions, as long as your d16 passes emissions for the engine that's supposed to be in the car (d17), you'll be fine.
It makes more sense just to get an older civic though.
