Cheaper to buy a CL with a J in it. Nicer car, and you could probs strip some parts from it to make it lighter if you're so inclined

Nothing with a civic is "worth" it

Obviously the OP does have enough money to initially invest in a k swap. Any j-series motor can be had or >1000 counting motor, transmission, ecu, wiring harness, etc.
