Not expensive if the auction ends under 10K. Just the Full Race turbo kit alone is worth 3 to 4K USD.

Street terror.

Looking at the auction, did anyone notice the dipstick location on the engine?

If it is a D16A6 block(strongest D-series, yes) then the dipstick location should be between cylinders 2 and 3. It appears to be a D16Y8 Block due to the dipstick tube location right in front of the timing belt cover at the corner of the block.
Been awhile, but does the Y8 oil pump housing have the dipstick tube attached to it?
Correct me if I'm wrong?

The Owner of Full-race himself said it was already going for too much at around $5000 USD due to the fact most of the stuff was done by people in there shop who are welding or whatever for the first time. Its a decent deal though because for a $10 coupler you would have a 10 second D series civic with a nice pink paintjob.

it would be a waste to upgrade the rear brakes, for a few runs on the track

If anything, full drag racing cars should focus less on rear brakes, eh?

Doesn't even have a tach (that I could see). All that power and you have no idea where you're sitting.

most people don't need a tach to tell where they are esspecially with as much noise as I bet that thing would make....
