Not sure if you still have this or not, but I just ran into the log... Very Nice work...
Versatile... that's my kind of Integra.
Keep it up.

Thank you. Much appreciated. My future grandkids will be appreciating this car when the time comes. Still have it and working on some things for this Spring. As it currently sits:

Re: My "Uncle Ben's" DC2 rebuild
Leaky head-gasket forced me to upgrade the cooling system and change the head-gasket. I've had this Skunk2 black series manifold laying around for at least a year, with various other things I've wanted to do with the engine bay:
Mock-up of the manifold. Considering a Blackseries TB also:
Head back on with a new JEProSeal gasket:
A buddy stopped by with his DB8. I helped with the JDM front-end install on his car:

Remounted the RE30's for this season. New clutch and new tune to come at the end of the month.

Re: My "Uncle Ben's" DC2 rebuild
Great job! So many guys out there that clutter the car and call it modded. You stripped away the useless pieces and did choice mods and let the lines speak for themselves. This should be page 1 chapter 1 of the dericing manual. Taking something dated looking and turning it into a seriously bad *** ride anyone would drive with pride. Kudos to you sir!!!

absolutely beautiful bro, love everything about the car and much respect for saving the car from the ricer stage and eventual junkyard.

Re: My "Uncle Ben's" DC2 rebuild
^ Thanks. I've never seen a video of my car in action, so this was a treat. I agree with you on the audio. I am not a Kanye fan myself. If I made the video I would have used Mob Deep's "Quiet Storm" track.
