Re: What can I swap
Yes pretty much the entire car swaps over. But maybe provide some specifics on what you are planning to swap over.
To be perfectly honest, given the age of the integra line I would rather be putting in new aftermarket parts than swapping in used GS-R parts. My 2000 GS-R shocks and springs got tossed into the junk yard when I took them off this year, at 19 years old I wouldn't even think about selling them, and they were still low mileage for the age but the ride was very floaty with them. The shocks weren't leaking but they were worn out. Suspension parts will all be well past their useful life, most of the rubber bushings on the suspension arms will be deteriorated.
I even hesitate to swap over used ITR parts as they are going to be too old for all of the work and cost involved. As an example, I got new KYB AGX shocks and H&R springs in the exact ITR spec and they will last and perform much better in the long term. When it comes to control arms and such, I would rather have aftermarkets too. hope this helps.
