Default My new and *unexpected* car!

*warning.. lots of 100k pictures.. 56k be prepared to wait!*

Some pictures of my new car.. I guess I need to change my username now, huh?

Yes, everything you see in the engine bay has been imported from the US, and the car is physically located in Thailand. To my knowledge, this is the *only* Integra in Thailand with a turbo. Its 4am, I just got home, I'm sleepy, but wanted to share some pictures I took today with you ppl. I'll add the full specs of the car & engine here once I wake up (and also an explanation as to why it was *unexpected*)

Too much to remember from the top of my head.. but there's a shitload of parts in the car & engine from Quaife, JE, Eagle, Crower, AEM, Link Engine Management, Weapon-R, Tenzo-R, GReddy, Clutchmasters, Skunk2, Enkei, HKS, JDM ITR, Recaro, Energy Suspension, Pivot, Autometer, Turbonetics, Tial, Nology, ACE, RC Engineering, Total Seal, SRP, Ferrera.. etc.. so much stuff in this car, that there really isn't anything left for me to modify, apart from suspension mods

My Civic is currently getting a CRVTEC (B20/B16A) transplant, and i'm gonna be selling the turbokit from the car, and hopefully gather up enough money for some new rims for this Integra

The only thing I hate about this car is the exhaust and the tail lights. Exhaust is no problem, you guys may have remembered me posting up some pictures of a kakimoto exhaust I picked up. The ugly carbon-fibre altezza tails will be replaced with stock tails (thank god) by the seller of the car.

Oh yeah, and since the owner grew up in the US, he decided to take off the Honda emblems and replace them with Acura badges. Of course, i'm not in the US, so i'll be taking off the Acura emblems and replacing them with JDM ITR Honda emblems (no, there will NEVER be any Type-R stickers on this car! anti-rice for life!)

Definately a bargain for the equivalent of US$11,600!

Hey Nathan, R there Integra Type R's in Thailand??
there are only a handful, and they were personally imported from japan. The rest are ITRs with sunroofs (everything converted to ITR except the car's bodyshell itself ) But we can get all the ITR stuff here 2nd hand.. as you can see, i already have JDM ITR black recaro complete with rear seats. A lot of salvaged ITRs and CTRs make their way to Thailand.. people over here love their engines..
