Good luck finding your anr header..i want one too, perfect ground clearance, good power.
Haha for sure man. I like keepin the full interior since I daily. I plan on buildin a track beast when I'm a a little older and more experienced driver. This is my first real build and its with my dd so keepin it street/showish ready

And ya I have had no luck findin an ANR. Shoulda bought one when I had the chance.. Might have one similar made by a guy who does custom fab. His price was 700-1k but idk if i wanna spend that much haha

what suspension are you on? that rear bar is sick and looks clean with the trim, better than the mooogen. only thing that sucks about extended tophats, they prevent me from putting the covers on the towers

oh and i continue to stalk your build since i picked up a set of regas haha

Right now I'm on Tokico Illumina whites with Ground Control sleeves. I plan I getting Progress street coils and rear sway bar kit. Smaller company that makes legit parts IMO

Preciate the words man. Unfortunately I no longer have my Regas. I sold them to a local buddy to fund the beginning of this rebuild. It sucked but it will be worth it in the long run. Really wish I woulda kept my tires though

Your a bargain hunter, and everything you buy is top notch. This is by far my favorite thread.

lol I'm curious to see how it is. I went with the street so hopefully it wont be super uncomfortable. I drove it slammed all the way down for a while so I don't think it'll be that bad.

I've got the Innovative Mounts in my B20 Integra mostly street driven, track days every now and then. They aren't that bad after they break in, but what sucked was when I had my motor out a while back I noticed the bushing was kinda wollowed on the driver side mount. I'm still using it, with no huge problems, just kinda weird that it did that.

Also, are you in need of a another set of rods for your build?

Are you running torque mounts? If you aren't that might be the reasoning for that. I'm not planning on running them either so I wonder if I should go with a stiffer bushing like the 75a over the 65. We'll see what happens.

And I ended up buying a new complete set of rods w/pistons. How come?

No, no torque mounts... but that makes sense.
