i wouldn't get one. buddy of mine used to have a d15b7 3 stg vtec swap in his 4 door. ive drivin it before it really wasn't all its cracked up to be. yea 130 hp is a decent amount but for me personally i like a little torque to work with as well. sure honda engines barely make any but a d15b7 is like way down there on torque lol
thats my opinion but its really up to you

Good choice for picking a hatch love'em. Like you said you want to put HID's,foglights,rims, ect good way to start and not that expensive too. Keep it clean and you'll get a lot of head turners. Welcome!!!
