    Default Bought one of my dream cars for 2500 bucks!

    First off, I live in Japan so thats one of the reasons I got this car so cheap. Its a 1996 Honda Integra Type R. As soon as I got it I took the lip kit off. It was damaged and in my opinion, really really ugly. I hate the wheels, but they came with it so im stuck with them for a little bit. Mods are Intake filter, Mugen Header, Dragger Exhaust....and thats all the engine mods of I know so far. Well on to the Pics!

    When i bought it today.....





    After a little work and a good wash....









    Better pics

    Holy crap, that's awesome.

    I hope I can get stationed in Japan sometime so that I can buy an ITR sedan.

    Im not sure where the wheels came from but they are repulsive. I plan on bringing the swap, interior, and front end back to the states with me next year.

    I'll be honest. I think the wheels look pretty good on there. They are completely different as no Honda "fanboi" has that. Why get wheels that everyone else has and not keep something original? Later, QD.

    I just want to go back to stock with the wheels, and I did end up putting the spoiler back on.

    Have you checked prices to bring it back to the states? isn't it like every duty station they will pay to ship your car from last duty station when you PCS?

    You can but you cant, its a long drawn out process that is a huge headache to bring back through the military.

    I thought the military allowed one vehicle per family, who has a spouse deployed overseas? I may be easier than you think.

    B4s are overrated, and everyone and their brother has one. As far as i have seen there are only a handful of type r's, the only bad thing is they are all white.
