Car needs a good buff job and work here and there but overall I'm happy with this car.


I already fixed the idling issue so that's good. But future plans :

Realign the window
Replace fender
Respray the car
Rebuild the motor
Function form type 1
Window visor
Mugen front lip
Fog light
Lca

This is my car when I bought it in 2002:



This was (I think) around 2006.


Early test fit on the body kit. It fits much better now.


The previous paint job was very lackluster on the details (like half assed engine compartment) and I also had been waiting almost 7 years on getting my body kit on. We stripped it down this time


This was a few months ago. Right now the shell is painted and just waiting on the doors, hood, fenders, hatch, bumpers and side skirts. Old body shop was dragging so we got tired of waiting and switched after a year of little progress. They are making more progress


This is my engine, and I feel it is very important to point out the Transformers oil cap. It may not add horsepower, but I can pretend I'm driving an alien robot so who cares.


This was after we got my spacers and good wheels back on. Had steelies on for the paint.


Oh, and the entertainment package


So all the mods I can remember:
17" Konig rims
OBX seats
B16A1 from Toronto JDM
OBX header
Innovative crossmember
aluminum radiator
the cold air intake, which seems to be a requirement to own an import
Viper alarm
Alpine touch screen w/in dash dvd
custom stereo enclosure
did I mention an Autobot oil cap? I'm kind of a tf fan
paint
body kit
new carpet
new quarter glass seals, which made more of a difference than even I thought they would
APC coilovers-with the roads around here had to use them to raise it a little from the weight of the B16.
new step plates and lots of misc trim pieces

After this, I think I may actually be done.

I didn't like the color at first but after the buff job, the color is starting to grow on me.

Definitely needs some more work but I like the car a lot. The hatch and sedan rear is more round than the coupes. That was one thing I wasn't a big fan off. Will keep everyone updated on the progress as i go.

So Need to Know if I qualify for this group.
I have had several Honda's and Acura's that I got Stock and done swaps and mods to
the short list
84' Hatch HF motor swaped to SI motor and Misc Mods
88' Integra DOHC ZC swap
89' Integra DOHC ZC and Rear seat delete for Subs Custom header, intake blah blah blah
92' Civic DOHC ZC and Integra Trans Swap
95' Del Sol 5 Speed Swap and Misc JDM addons
And the current car

91' Integra now this is why I ask
I got the car Slamed, B18C1 swap and Just flat out thrashed. now I did drive it home BUT I have striped it down and redone all the work the Mentaly handycaped owner befor I had it did. the jumper harness had to be compleatly redone the motor is being compleatly rebuilt and I have fixed and repaired the Int to stock considering it was miss 80% of the screews bolts and panels and had to swap the front springs to the rear on one side as thay were installed wrong.
So I did buy it with most of the parts and some work done but I have Redone all the work the was done and done work that should have been done in the first place.
so do I get to claim Built Not Bought?
