EG shape civic(91-95) is your best choice really, im not sure which is the lightest shell i think it was the 1.3 version but not 100%. very light to begin with, the engine is naturally found in them so no real hacking away at the shell needed, you should be able to find a decent shell for well under a grand, would be an absolute flyer! get onto www.hybrids.jp/articles/tech/info.html it was a site i found useful wen i was considering putting a k20 in my old ek9.
