i got the car on april 3rd. and since then its come a long way.i've dropped close to $2K or more into it to get it where it is. i've done a full tune-up.cap,rotor,wires,plugs,fuel filter, 4 new tires, 4 struts and Tein s-tech springs, Apexi N1 muffler, Kenwood headunit with Rockford fosgate components, new clutch, new transmission, undercoating the trunk,re-wiring various things, the valve cover looked like crap so i did a little something with it.haha.but that's all i can think of right now. i've put countless hours into cleaning up the car and bringing it back up to par. and its really getting there.but there's still work to do. any comments are welcome.reps for positive feedback.thanks.:goodjob:

i think it looks better slammed
it rode like **** and was eating the tires off.i couldnt even go over a small speed bump sideways and still not scrape. the previous owner cut the hell out of the springs. it was horrible.

05-30-2008, 03:40 PM
Yes i am the one that had the turbo lude and now have the red integra, the motor is not "builtish" , plans have changed and will have it back next week. Never said i wanted to race you, thats your choice, was just asking if you had ever ran the 1/4 or other people, cause my friends are always looking for fun ;) just like your buddy with the black foxbody last weekend that crept by and then threw a rev but didnt want to play with the GTO or the orange teg. Just a friendly gesture is all. You will see my car back out soon.
