the B18B1 (RS, LS, SE) motors are very peppy. They have enough low-end power to get the car rolling and moving, and the enough power upstairs to scream down the road when needed.

Things to watch out for:

-they are a Honda, so there is potential for rust around the rear wheel wells
-if you see oil residue on the block, it most likely is the cam seal plug (black circle on left side of valve cover)...it can be easily replaced.
-it'll be old so there will be squeaks and rattles coming from the hatch and the different panels. the hatch rattle/squeak can be remedied.

that's basically it. My 94LS had 164K miles until I put in my GSR motor and I never had a problem with that motor. It started right up, never broke down, was still peppy and quick..makes me wonder why I took it out.

But good luck, you can't find much wrong with these cars (if well maintained).
