Oh I know. Its da Chrome rimz right? or a purple underglow kit?

On a rather serious note... why did you go with the Itr brake pads for the front, if you don't mind me asking. I don't know a lot about them as far as performance/price/longevity.

skipunk4

Thanks man, preciate it

Oh you know it homie, I love me some chrome n' glow lol.

The reason for the ITR pads is cuz I'm running the 96 spec 4x114 ITR brake setup so It has ITR calipers up front and gsr calipers in rear. If I got a complete set of GSR pads I believe they wouldn't have worked with the front caliper. I could be totally wrong, but I replaced the pads with what was on them when I got them so we should be good lol

9KRevLimitDC2

Well I got that, but what I was wondering was why oem pads? Are they cost effective or do they perform better than a set of Hawks would (just an example) for your purpose?

I forgot to ask, what color "RED" is that spray paint and brand? My wife's GSR needs a sand and spray on her rear bumper and spoiler (i hate that word).

[QUOTE=skipunk4;37078392]Thanks for all the support guys

Everything is going smooth so far so I'm not too worried about it. The people I am working with have been very helpful and cooperative so I'm very happy about that.

Plus I'm not the only person that got damage to there vehicle from it so thats on my side as well


But I got somewhat of an UPDATE today


Picked up an NRG short hub to replace my super long Momo one





Much better


Quick Question.. I have an Integra just like yours and its all stock for interior. I plan on getting the Nardi Deep Corn wheel an i see that you have that an it looks Sick! But what im wondering is if i get the nrg short hub adapter is that all i need to install the aftermarket wheel? Or do you also need the quick release? Cause from what i understand the steer wheel can directly connect to the short hub? An i just figured the quick release was just an extra accessory to have? But i could be wrong. Help! Thanks!

skipunk4

I like OEM pads because they don't give off much dust, I know there gonna fit perfect and they are long lasting for my daily driving. Nothin special I'm sure about ITR pads other than fitment. Hawks are nice but are dusty and a little more expensive.

Hopefully get them back soon.

Lol thanks for the words man. More to come soon

Preciate the words man, will do

That pic is before coat, will have pics after for sure!

It is "Milano Red" and I cant honestly remember the brand. I got it at shucks/oreily's auto parts.

If you just run the NRG short hub the steering wheel might be far away, depending on how close you want to be to the wheel. If you want to run a quick release get the short hub but if you don't want to run a quick release I'd recommend getting a momo hub. They are pretty inexpensive and have a little more space on them so the wheel will be out a little farther. That is what I will be running but the thing is you have to get a Nardi to momo ring adapter so the Nardi wheel can bolt up. Good luck



So today I got a package from Airbag Club on here, got here a lot faster than expected

I was gonna wait for the new page but I just couldn't resist lol

Saw this thing a little while ago and wanted it so bad, luckily it was still for sale when I finally came up with all the funds



It's a SixSigmaRacing stainless B series 4-1 street sweeper race header. Just need to have a reducer and flange welded on so I can bolt it up to a hi flow cat

Here it is put together



And mocked up







And here's one of the car, just about ready for some suspension



More to come soon very soon

Thanks! I love this build so much. Btw your build is petty much the reason i picked up my 2000 red gsr... haha

skipunk4

Thanks for the words man, very much appreciated. Wish I coulda started with a gsr model, good luck with your build up man

DicerYuri

what brand jack are you using? i ask because you got that car a good distance off the floor and i cant a find a jack that can lift that high for the life of me, thanks

fernando.

That has to be the SEXIEST header I have ever seen in my life. Hahah.

double wishbone

Awesome updates man! And I second that jack question, you got that up a good distance. I recently did my clutch/flywheel and my Craftsman jack just barely lifted my Prelude high enough to slide the transmission out, and that still wasn't as high as you are there.

dapek

So sick Coop! That header looks so perfect mocked up, can't wait to see it in the bay

SHG_James

SSR ftw!

mattrt09

nice pickup on teh headerr, i was gonna get one like that for my car

skipunk4

I'm just using a $80 jack from Harbor Freight. What I did to get the car that high was get the car on 4 jack stands on their lowest setting. Then put some wood on the jack to act as a spacer and jacked the car up front first then back. It was pretty simple just takes a little time. But remember always use jack stands!

Hahaha thanks man. I couldn't be happier with it

Haha check answer above ^^^

Thanks man, me either. It's gonna be so sick

Can't wait to see how it performs!

Thanks man, DO IT!!

YAGYAGAN_JDM

Headers are sick

DicerYuri

awesome that makes perfect sense thanks for the tip no more rubbing on the car as i wiggle under it lol
i just gotta get the right size wood and rid of my crap jack.. harbor frieght and home depot here i come!

9KRevLimitDC2

Thanks bud that answers my question for sure. Is that a Kobalt engine stand? P.s. stop buying all the parts that I dream about having, that header is BALLER. Not that it surprises me b/c I already hate chu for your MR Masterpiece.
