Default Matt's Project DC4

Hello everyone,

I just picked up this 1994 Integra LS Hatchback from my cousin-in-law on Saturday. To make things short, she was stolen a month ago, then was recovered two weeks ago. Not wanting to see her crushed or parted out, he gave me a offer I couldn't refuse and decided to pick her up. So far, she runs okay, but needs a bit of TLC. I know she's not much of a looker now, but just wait and see the progress of transformation. You guys won't be disappointed.

The Plan: To build the DC4 for time attack. I plan to compete in the various time attack events, but my main focus is Super Lap Battle and the Super Street FF Battle. Game on.

Phase II: On-track testing

Updates:

1. I picked up a Circuit Hero Type-II shift lever extender from Mr. Circuit Hero himself (Gil Salazar) at the Raceline Track Day at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway two weeks ago. He even hooked it up with a free Circuit Hero t-shirt. Great guy that sells quality products. I sent out the shift lever extender to get anodized black to match my OEM ITR shift lever.

2. Last week, I ordered a Spoon Duracon 5-Speed shift **** to go with my shifter setup. You guys know how much I love Spoon.

3. Since the B18B1 runs like s***, I've decided to ditch it and ordered a JDM B20B (High compression w/ knock sensor). I'll be using the B20B until I finish building my B18C1 or when it blows. Which ever comes first. The B20B should be arriving sometime next month or early November.

4. I ordered a Hondata S100 so I can tune the B20B after I swap it in.

That's pretty much it for now. More parts and pictures are on the way!
