Default Re: BUILT NOT BOUGHT!

Hello all, This is my 90 Integra LS
Day 1, purchased as a rolling shell $200.00 No engine.


Rebuilt my old B18A. Nothing crazy, I don't race anymore, just enjoy driving going to shows etc. Mods= ACT 6 puck clutch, AEM CAI, DC Sports Header + Catback, NGK wires, B18B cams, AEM cam gears, CTR Pulley.





Did the body work.


Getting painted.


Debut day.


My Teg sat like this for a year.


Later I made some changes.


And this is how it currently sits. Future plans, 1 piece headlights, LS V-Tec, wire tuck, brake upgrades. Change the side skirts and rear bumper. Possibly get different wheels. Might paint the moldings and get rid of the black center (not sure yet). I enjoy my car, I built it for myself and that's all that matters.

91sedan_kid Nothing much. It started to rain like hell 3 days ago and had yet to stop so all the streets are flooded. I have to drive to Reno today to pic up my 10k HID I'm buying for 20 bucks new never used.lol So i had to reinstall me intake back to stock so i don't suck water up..I have a valve but they don't work at high speeds so i recommend everyone to do the same.

Well the head was dropped off today and I'll have it back back by the end of next week. So then the assembly begins. Here are a few parts I've received recently and my oem thermostat and timing belt tensioner are on the way and I painted some things to match the block. I'll do the head when I get it back and everything will look like new.
