Default Sold the teg and picked up one of these.....

I finally decided to sell the integra. Here's a picture of what it did look like.






And that is what I picked up. Needs a lot of work, but mainly in the bay. Bought it really really cheap because the valve cover threads were completely stripped and it was leaking oil. After my three and a half hour walk home from school, I realized I HAD to make this motor run until the new one got here. So I picked up a tap and die and put in some new nuts. It at least runs now, but just misfires and the valve ticking is enough to make anyone go deaf. Speedometer is digitial, but doesn't work. If I try and accelerate somewhat normal, the spark plug wires pop off the distributor. I know this motor wont last but a week more lol. I knew what I was getting into though. heh. SO the same day I bought the car I just went ahead and bought one of these......it was shipped today. w00t! I'll have to rock out with the side mount until I can afford an intercooler. (poor college kid here). I will put in a stage 3 clutch before the install, so that leaves me with a few Ben's....


I'm bored, and just thought I'd share with everyone.


The 240 had a front license plate cover. I pulled that off and realized that whoever painted it just forgot about that spot. As if its not hard to tell with the silver door jams and silver engine bay lol.

You're gonna need more than a SR20 to make that car cooler than your Integra.

200whp....shoot I bet my teg was more than that . Dont' get me wrong, I loved the integra but I was in need of something new. I've never really had a project car. I guess the poor college kid was a little exaggeration lol. I live on my own and after bills and such I have about 600 to play with. Just wait until the 240 is done

haha funds are a big thing since I live on my own. (I'm 18). The car only took 6 minutes to start this morning for school. Im going to work straight through next thursday so that I can afford an intercooler. I'm also hoping to get the swap done next weekend (first motor swap)

Avatar changed.....lol
