Red Teg in Gwinnett

[ThunderTrukk]

Hello IA!

New member here in Gwinnett, with a Milano Red '94 Integra RS. I have browsed this site for 3 years now, just never joined up. I have frequented the Sonic meets which were close to my house, until they were shut down. I have about 4 years experience with imports, and 18+ years with cars in general.

The Teg has a B20B swap, GSR trans, full coilovers, OZ rims, etc... I have put a ton of wrench time into it. Dan and his guys at Zen have as well. Nice to be here!

Nice car!! Welcome to IA!!

[ThunderTrukk]

Thanks Raymond, I will be stopping by your shop (its right behind my apartment) to get some LED bulbs for my dash and dome light. Do you keep a lot of different bulbs in stock?

[GlennsEK]

Teggy looks good!

[ThunderTrukk]

Thanks. Its about 80% done. Gotta get a lip, clean up the headlights, odds and ends inside, maybe a set of fogs, and wanna get a GSR tranny. Then I think maybe either a CR/VTEC or Turbo b20. We will see.

Looks almost exactly like Davison's old car.

EDIT: And the wheels you traded are the wheels that were on Davison's car. I'm not hating before its confirmed.... But are you sure you put a ton of wrench time into that? Because if that's Davison's old car then he put a lot of wrench time into that.

[ThunderTrukk]

You are correct, it is Davidson's old car. (Blackknightteg) However, I never claimed that I was the only one to work on it. Since purchasing it from him I have done a lot of repair work and parts replacement. You will read, that I never once claimed to be the one that took the car from stock to its current glory. I simply "put a ton of wrench time" into it. As well as Davidson. Him much more than myself. I am simply happy to have such a beautiful machine that is loved as much as it once was.

Leave the Negativity out of here,we got enough of that on IA already.

[Captain-Obvious™]

Lulz. I was just clarifying. I look forward to see how much more you do to make it your own.

My mistake if you took it the wrong way. I just thought you were taking credit for building a car that you didn't. But if your not, then cool.

[Captain-Obvious™]

@Captain-Obvious What were you expecting to get from saying what you did???I seriously wanna know. Leave the Negativity out of here,we got enough of that on IA already.

What are you expecting to get out of butting into a question I asked him. Not you.

Yeah, I am in no way shape or form taking credit for building this car. That was my ole buddy Davidson. He made the car his own, but he was tired of the trouble it was giving him. So once I got it I:

Replaced the dizzy
Replaced the ECU
Pulled the old exhaust and replaced it the ITR (Thanks to Dan at Zen)
Replaced the throw out bearing, clutch, and flywheel (Again thanks to Dan)
Swapped the wheels (I was never much a fan of the Supamesh)
Replaced the CMC, CSC, throttle body, IACV, FIV
Pulled the head for a PNP
Replaced the injectors
Little things (Fuel filter, plugs, wires, brake MC and booster
Had the ITR lip stolen >_>.....twice (I have since garaged it)
Swapped +98' tails
Replaced the whole VSS assembly
Tinted the windows
Replaced the headunit
Added a killswitch
Swapped in a GSR tranny that ended up being a POS, and putting the LS back in
HID kit, new headlight lenses, small cosmetic things

I don't mean to act as though this was my creation from the beginning. My apologies if it appeared that way. I simply wanted to keep his baby on the road. When people at gas stations stop me and want to talk about it, I always tell them that I am keeping a friend's dream alive with it....


Even if that friend moved on to a HHR....:no:

[Captain-Obvious™]

I got you man. More power to you. Like I said, I look forward to seeing what you do visually to make it your style.

welcome to IA clean teggy

[ThunderTrukk]

Yeah, what I really want to do, is a JDM front like your's. However, when I find one, its gone instantly. There is one that I found on CL, but the guys said it is already sold. If not, I will just do a +98 front end swap. Who knows. Maybe a UKDM swap....

[cactusEG]

Welcome to IA

98+ front :goodjob:
