Looking for 95-01 Geru

I've been out of SCC for about 6 years now working on my SUV. I have now graduated college and commute to work 80mi round trip everyday. I AM going to buy a civic soon, but I have no idea of which to procure. I am very mechanically inclined, and have been working on engines for 11 years. I am looking for an engine/car that can be modified with outstanding Low/HIgh End yeilds. Can you help. Money isn't a problem, keeping the objective as a civic 2 dr is.

When your right, your right!
