Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
Been awhile, still hoping to fix all the pictures on this thread. I've had some progress over the past few weeks as I am getting the car ready to be dropped off for Paint.
Few more pieces in
stainless braided lines
Power steering loop with reservoir
TSR Bolt on Battery relocater
CJ'z Wiring K swap plug and play conversion Harness
I pulled off all the suspension components and sent some off to powder coat
picked up the subframe today
Pulled the Dashboard off to get the interior ready for paint.
And got rid of some sound deadoning
How it currently sits... Made some stands for the car to roll around the shop
Ohh....I finally pulled the trigger on a wing so I'll post it up soon as I get it in!
Oh and In case anyone is interested I have a set of Gab Sports wheels in good shape for sale 15x7 +25 / 15x7.5 +35 5x114

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
Picked up a used FD2 type R OEM car cover hoping it would fit decently and to my surprise It fit the Integra pretty well! Will be needing this after the car is out from paint as my shop gets super dusty

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
I went through Jesse Streeter. It's almost impossible to find any photos of it online other than stock photos from Marga Hills. Fortunately went I went to buy one they had one in stock from a misunderstanding with another customer. They will make them new still, Jesse is who I typically use for all my JDM purchases.

Took a road trip to So cal to pick up a Voltex wing from another fellow R owner. Wing is practically new and came with everything.

Nice build so far. Good choice on the wing too! a nice wing makes a world of difference. I really liked my Feel's wing on my GSR

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
So I've been stripping the car when I have a chance and it's almost there. Soon as that's done I'll be throwing the suspension back on to make it rollable and off to Paint she goes!
Also, I sold off my spoon calipers that I had from my previous build and have a new setup on the way! I'll update when they come in.
Few pics I took the other day

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
Thanks man!
So got a new (to me) set of Calipers for the build. Gonna get these refinished as the anodizing seems to be fairly faded.
ENDLESS 4 POT
Cage is in!
Car will be dropped off Friday with my paint guy

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
Haven't updated in awhile....
So I decided to not keep the car the Cement grey color and instead will be painted VSM (Vogue Silver Metallic, which was an option for the JDM ITR). No progess from the shop yet as they haven't done much to it.
Also picked up a new set of wheels and will be selling off the 16x8 Mugen MF10's if anyone is interested.
16x8 +33 Volk TE37 AKA (TE16)

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
I dunno how to explain it Insidiouseg, but I would say of all the colours it's the one that changes the look of the car and is certainly different. I always liked it and actively sought one out years back, but you may not. Though it's close enough to the cement grey in look. And the red badges and decals really make it jump out as a colour.

PS I love the EDM taillights. I've done similar myself and replaced the JDM with EDM. The clear(er) indicator lenses make it feel more modern IMHO. Seem to "widen" the look of the back end too.

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
Ughhh sadly no, and it's killing me! Forgot to update this thread, had just been updating the one over on typerclub.com
Sooooooo.........
It's been awhile since updates, mostly because the car is still at the paint shop and has a bit more time to go since my painter is so busy. If his work wasn't so good, I wouldn't be this patient haha. I did stop by and snap some pics of it's current state
Started to take apart my Endless calipers as I'm gonna have them re anodized in a red color to match my valve cover. Also got ahold of Endless USA and they were able to get me a rebuild kit for the Pistons.
Here's what finish I'm after with the calipers

Re: My Cement grey 01 ITR build
Small updates:
My painter is saying he should have it done by end of October so hoping he keeps his word! It's been too long and after going to type r expo west, it has me itching to start putting this car together.
In other news,
Finally got around to rebuilding/refreshing my Endless Calipers. It took a lot more hours to do the process than I had imagined but I'm happy with the end result. First I unassembled them and got the Pistons out (which was actually a little tricky), then cleaned them up with some degreaser and a brush, cleaned up the hardware with degreaser and a brush, painted hardware with high temp silver paint, had Calipers blasted to get old anodizing off, had em re anodized, and after 3 failed attempts at receiving the wrong seals, on the fourth try Endless USA got it right haha.
Some pics of the process.....
Back from anodizer
Polished up the lettering
Finally, the proper seals!
Assembly time!
Final product
