BUILT NOT BOUGHT!
del sol freak, you could get some dr20, those are 15x7 +10 which is pretty easy to fit on most applications without alot of work, if you want something really easy to fit with an ok sized lip you could track down some 15x7+20 Enkei 92's, those are the last wheels i had on my da before i sold it and my favorite set that was on that car
work is pretty chill but i come home pretty tired.. Been only getting one day off a week since we are short handed but my check is going to be fat. which is a plus.
which car you planning to run them on? it would be easier for us to help you if we knew the car.
fail. two reason. First this isnt the honda-tech market, and two this is a built not bought thread not the bought not built thread. Not hating on the car but just the wrong place to be posting.
how is everyone doing today? My daughter birthday tomorrow. cant believe she is turning 1. Saturday and Sunday is going to be here party though so imma be dam busy.
anyone wanna buy a 1992 integra gsr ls vtec turbo fully built?

took a few pictures in my garage and of some stuff on the dash, got it out there to finish it up, yea I know it's dusty .
center console

this is off a vintage military aircraft and the G force sensor in it still works, or you can pull the handle and it comes on, it didn't have the retaining bracket, so I had to reverse engineer it.

This is what I'm building not buying right now, I don't think I could buy this stuff if I wanted to,
I had found a Datsun original air cleaner base and THOUGHT it would match my carbs, wrong!! I wanted the factory velocity stacks and mounting bases off of it, it turns out after all this work the holes didn't line up, I fixed that, but more on that in a few minutes, I have no idea what they made this air cleaner out of, but it's just sheet metal right? again wrong, I don't know if they hardened it, or it's still radioactive from WW2, but I'm having a horrible time cutting the stuff, it cuts strange, machines strange, and welds strange, It might be 409 stainless, it looks like regular steel. whatever it is, it's some tough stuff,
this is what I started with,

and then removed the parts I wanted

after a lot of cutting, and grinding, sanding, cussing, etc, I ended up with two of these, since the holes don't line up, I'll turn then 90 degrees on the base plates, before welding them on, then they will get the mounting holes, and piston air passage holes drilled.

and I end up with one of these, there are a lot more then a single weld, I just had to add one after it was blasted




these were the original velocity stacks I had made

this is how I formed the screen

I'll be going into this in much more detail, I still have one more of these bastards to make.

Haven't posted in here in ages =( But the car is gone. Had a big engine failure on the Autobahn. Took all the goodies off and left it there in Germany. Now looking for a new ride, it's gonna be a hatchback now and for track purpose! Going to update when I got me a new ride..
i was thinking the same, but its his choice and money.
i personally would of went with a Gsr and then boosted it xD
Looking fresh. You going to get new molding? or just trim pain the old ones?
ouch. keep us updated!
Party 1 of 2 today. Weather is looking pretty good for tomorrow! hope everything goes good!
