Default JDM GSR

Do all the Integras in Japan have the one peice headlights or do some have the one peice while others have the bug eyes?

Does anyone know where I can get information on importing a GSR directly from Japan?

I'm in the market for some rims and I need some opinions on what kind/color/size. I'm most likely going to get some white 17 inch for my black Integra. Any suggestions on brand or anything will be appreciated.

you sir, are on crack if you wanna import a GSR from japan, thats gonna cost you probably 10 grand more than the car is worth just get an OEM JDM front end for 3000-4000 and a couple grand for labor and paint its cheaper. Japan did have the "bug-eye" tegs but it didn't fare well with the Japanese - so they changed it. rims look at spoon rims (largest is 16), volk, or advan rims (all 3 are very expensive, strong and most are lightweight... LAST OF ALL use the search function in the upper right of the screen all these topics have been covered soooo many times BTW I hate fat heavy slow chrome rims

94+ integras (no GSR in japan) all have one piece headlight and the JDM front-end (of course), and type-r's headlight being black and the rest being chrome.

yes..you can direct import a integra over from japan..but why? I can get you a complete type-r (in parts..no frame) and just get yourself a frame an dyou'll have a cheap JDM itr...

and uh...chrome's ugly....heavy and ugly

the GSR-R over her is the SiR over there. Its about 2500 to have one shipped over here. I looked into having a JDM ITR shipped over here and this is what i found out. You've got to have it inspected for safety, then emissions (which it will not pass striaght from over there) then you have to register it b/c its a right side diver. There are some places in California that will do it for you. Here are some links.

when i was in japan and HK for 2 weeks i saw quite a few bug eyed integras.. i'd say just as many as the 1 piece JDM style.

However not many integras in japan and Hk anyways.. more porsches, bmw, benz and skylines

The GSR over here is labeled SiVTEC, SiR, SiRII and SiR-G.

The '93~'95 bug eyes front end, as you called it, also uses 1 piece headlights.

I own a '93 1/2 DC2 SiVTEC!!

I have the SiR-G headlights. People think they're fake, but they are Honda OEM. I didn't think the black housing would mesh well with my paintjob. It looks good on the Type-R yellow because the Type-R yellow is a little more harsh. My yellow is lighter, so i got the chrome housing SiR-G one-piece headlights.
