Default Allow me to reintroduce myself



















WTF this is in the trunk




















finally back on the ground rolling on AP1 rims





looks naked without decals or emblems hmmmmm
400 dollars in decals and emblems from acura





AP1 rims where looking pretty bunk to me so i'll switch it up to 98spec JDM ITR's



while i'm at it may as well grab a uber rare Honda Acess Rear strut tower bar to match my front






this is looking a little better







boo urns to stock ride height and oem dampers
i think i'll lower it a .75 inch with Bilstein HD dampers set on the lower spring perch.

while i'm there may as well throw on some spoon twin blocks






can't really hear da mad third gear vtec's gotta do something about that

comptech icebox should do the trick




while i'm at it may as well throw on spoon spark plug wires, carbon kevlar spark plug cover and oil cap.





time to do some work on the interior
i don't really care much for the 01 spec CDN red seats and stock steering wheel
before


after
Nardi Rally 330mm deep dish with red stitch, Recaro SRD's with black rear seats and a big [freak]ing mag light beside me if anyone wants to [freak] around.....ummmm i mean if its dark out and can't see




two things you can pretty much count on as an itr owner

someone trying to jack your car


oil consumption lol.

I bought it as a salvage off insurance
it was t-boned and ended up going into a ditch and the car was flooded.

when i got it the only things that didn't have a dent on it were the hood roof and trunk lol

Nice comeback for that R, good job. Broken window from thieves. Been there ONCE, never again though, they also got a 12rd clip sprayed at them.

Joe I like a guy that replaces red Recaros with black ones and reinstalls A instead 0' H emblems, brings a disasteR back from the grave without putting a GheyDM front on it.
for Steady R
for Doespike
