Default *EFcivicJDM's RHD DA6 XSI build thread*

bein on this a while and decided i should of thrown a thread up since i got..but iv a hell of a long way to go so ill start now...
anyway car is 1991 RHD honda integra xsi..B16A

heres when i got it...bought it for 1400euro(2000 dollars)in april 09 of a 53 year old man that imported it from japan in 1998..im the second owner..he drove it for two years and ithad been parked up till april
car came with mugen skirts,hiro lip and hiro spoiler...plus genuine honda wind deflecters and sunroof wind deflector..integra rear light and tanabe g medallion cat back exhaust







didnt like the 17s...so ended up puttin on some steelies



interior




engine





anyway decided i didnt like the look of the hiro spoiler so i removed it and painted the trunk matt black



so car was fine for a while...put a decat in.. new induction kit...lowered it new radio speakers etc...have no pics...then one night will driving.. a robbed honda accord decided to crash into my drivers quarter panel
so as im a panel beater by trade i done all the work myself



time past on and i decided to sell the car and i wanted to get a crx...but i just couldnt let it go as i had another da6 xsi and i sold it and bought an eg9 and regretted it so i kept it..
and then the fun started

pics durin paintin...removed doors bonnet wings mirrors trunk etc also welded and filled trunk spoiler holes and badge holes.trunk lock..fitted spoon carbon mirrors..blended hiro lip into bumper.color coded rub strips and fitted 92-93 tails..and repaired any dents..only have a few pics was too busy gettin it ready




and heres the colour its honda hrv orange



and the final product...






also fitted a beaks under strut brace and a custom axle back




got a set of 5zigens too



engine....

went from this



to this



and then semi wire tuck for now..and tried gold bay but didnt like it



so as it is now...



jdm stickers



painted 5zigens green



interior....

rsm and vafc


nardi s/w



rear...stripped out c pilar bar and rear strut brace



bride low maxseat



headlight intake



got a set of rota slipstreams



then painted them




as it sits now.......




im currently after takin it off the road for a few months and im planning

exedy clutch
new header
gettin bay painted same color as car
carbon bonnet and trunk
matchin bride seat
full cage painted tein green
tein coilovers
drilled and grooved brake discs
spoon n1 muffler
buddyclub stage 3 cams
bride interior mats
...and eventually boost

Excellent progress! Although I loved the way it looked when you first had it.. I think I've mentioned that before. lolll.. . Looks just like the catalouge DA6.




Oh and by the way. Do your doors scrap the sideskirts?

They are, especially when they are in good shape. If they weren't rare people wouldn't be able to sell them for $200 - $300.

Just saying........

I like the color of the car. Not a fan of the hiro lip but it's not that bad the cars mint. Nice work, looking coward to seeing this build finished.
