Default 98+spec conversion finished on 97 GSR take a look..

Well, the rest of my **** came in today, and as soon as i got off of work, i hit the bricks for about 2-3 hours..
I re did my valvecover, which was yellow before, i got new amber corners, new type-r front bumper, 98+ gsr fenders, and some angel eyes. I still need to paint the middle part of the bumper black but i'm too tired, i had to ended up wiring up the angel eyes to my side lights which wasn't bad at all just time consuming..anyway pics here



you may click on each image, as it will be enlarged for your view pleasure.

The bumper color and fender colors don't look the same. Also, 94-01 fenders are all the same, so you replacing your original fenders with "98+ gsr" fenders isn't anything different (there is also no different between rs/ls/gs/gsr/type-r fenders, or rs/ls/gs/gsr/type-r front bumper ). The headlights look nice but you'll probably end up regretting not getting OEM after a while when you realize how bad they shine. Also, what's with the ricy-looking red-painted hose and something else behind the intake manifold and brake booster? I like the white valve cover though.

LOL. I cant believe this guy actually bought new ******* fenders...there has been a million threads on this.

OP: You should get that timing cover on ASAP...word of warning. What did that motor put down to the wheels? Any more vids than that last one?

Loving the white valve cover, very nicely done

as far as what everyone has already said though, they are 100% right, whoever talked you into buying fenders for the conv cheated yah

You do not even need the hood. You just need bumper, headlights, and turn signals.

JDM front end would be way more expensive. A couple grand for JDM vs. $200 USDM bumper, $200 USDM headlights, $30 USDM signals = ~$450 (not counting paint but that'd be the same)

lol..alot of mixed comments..
~i had dents on my 97 fenders, i opted to replace them.
~I've had that timing cover off for about 2 years, no i dont need to put it back on, its tacky, and i have moved my radiator over slightly and i have a protective cover in the back as well to protect the belts.
~The bumper came like that, as i stated, i worked hard and was tired, i plan on painting that middle part of the girl BLACK actually, so no, i didnt' do that.
~The angel eyes shine fine, i'm not an idiot who just poped them in and called it a day, get this i actually adjusted them lmfao...they shine fine, and look great..
~i have a new video i'll post tonight some time, the car goin to 9400rpms, and a few pulls..
on the dyno, when i dynoed my crane stage 2's, i put down alittle over 210whp, Since that time..i actually ended up SNAPPing my crane stage two cams in half..yes, snapped, i ended up putting a set of s2s2's, and BC cam gears, i haven't dynoed since, peak power mark was actually around 8700~rpms, right now i have a full street tune, and my gears are at +2int/-1exh car pulls great, sounds awesome and what not, i'll try and get a clear day video of it..but in anycase, i have no traction under 30-40mph, the car just spins the tires.

That's actually the hoses i bought for it, their not painted i had a red valvecover on there and some other tids painted red, i thought it went good at the time..The only thing actually left is the seats in the car, those are the original seats the original owner had put in there, he was a crack head, no really he died of a OD, so i got a ricer kid who's suppose to buy the whole front/back seats for 150, from then i'll just go ahead and grab some type-r rears and some bride or tenzo front seats and call it a day..nothing really looking to do anything too major, just clean look..so far the car is fallling nicely together into place..just taking time..

still a stock bottem end fyi.

hood? No you dont really need the hood, I plan on getting a nice CF one or something in the near future, that's the original hood that was in there, when the c1 on a 175 shot of nitrous too a ****, the hood went to flames...and no i didn't blow the c1 up, the preivous owner did, again he was a crack head..

Actually the front bumper costed me 100 bucks, the lights were 140, off ebay and the singels were 30 bucks.
i spent around 300 bucks and it looks great.

Oops I forgot about the fact that you bought aftermarket headlights which are cheaper than OEM. The reason why I said the headlights shine bad, is because they do. My brother has his 2nd set on his Integra. Yes he aimed them, and did everything he possibly could to adjust them. He got it decent, but still crappy compared to what you could get with an OEM headlight. Also, if that bumper is genuine OEM (looks like it is because it has Integra written on it) then you got a good deal.
