Ok so the time has come. Most of you dont know me but i used to hang out with b16b_coupe and people around ky cinci area. Anyways i finally blew the gsr up, so its time to get **** done since i dont have another reliable car to drive everyday.

first things first
car:1999 acura integra gsr
mods; i/h/e, s2 intake manifold, short throw,coilovers,itr lip,seats, other small things nothing serious.

what happend? well i was driving a couple weeks ago when it was cold as hell out and stopped at a stop sign took off again and all a sudden seemed like it was running on 3 cylinders. so i pull over check to see if a plug wire fell off or something stupid. nothing. check the oil past fulllll im not for sure the exact problem but im thinking headgasket and bent valve!!

plans:

complete motor rebuild
after market jdm ITR 12:1 forged pistons and rods
skunk2 s2 cams, couldnt get toda's
super tech valves,retainers,springs,guides
acl bearings
cometic head gasket
arp head bolts
all new seals and gaskets
head race port and polished
crank balanced and blue printed
block honed
skunk2 obd1 p72 with s2 chip (cheaper than having it tuned)
hytech header (its so purty)
exedy stage 2 clutch
wheels? still looking
tokico's with ground controls
new paint )stock black)
oem seibon carbon hood and hatch
itr carbon lip
thats all for now!

also my blades are for sale with tires or for trade, so offer something! there minty fresh, there painted the same gun metal color code as stock ITR wheels. brand new kumho tires

im starting the build next weekend. my mom and step dad are coming up with a trailer and im going down to KY to do the build all in a month!so kevin i'll be down for a while sir!

i'll post pics as soon as i get my hands dirty, here's what she looks like now
