Bye Bye Integra....
So i gave up the integra cuz i didn't wanna fix it anymore and I was wasting too much money. I sold the shell and now have an Ls Vtec motor for sale. I just bought a 03 TL type S. That sh*t is sweet. Although I love the integra, I just needed a reliable car to get to and from work. And also the fact that the was just bad luck. From a tree falling onto it to being hit on the quarter panel while it was parked by my GF's brother. I just had to let it go.So farewell to the b20indcinlbc.
If you haven't seen these pics floating around on my other threads already, here it goes. Just a litttle something to explain my luck. haha

damn, seriously bad luck with the teg....didnt you just get the body work done and painted? Anyways, I'd rather ditch my teg for a TL so I honestly don't feel sorry for you!
haha, i'll give another teggy for a TL any day. i'll get pics up maybe on thurday. i'm letting my girl use the car, she wrecked her sh*t on the way to the dealer when i got the car. sucks.

btw did brother pay for anything?</TD></TR></TABLE>
Well, i didn't wanna be a dick cuz it is my gf's brother. I painted my own car so it made it less painful. he just offered to help me and gave me 200 for paint. I'm a nice guy. but if I was to get that big *** dent fixed, it'll probably cost a 1000 to fix.

That sucks man. I was just looking at your other thread couple days ago about how you painted your car, and it looked pretty sick too. Man I wish I lived in CA, cars here in WA are so expensive. I cant even find a G3 shell under 2k and most that around 2k have theft title or are to mangled to even do anything with.
oh shiitttt im right there with you man, im about to sell mine, problem after problem, tow after tow.... i ive had bad luck from about the beginng sighh but i really really dont want to let it go yet but i just might have to, in fact its in the shop right now lol, it was towed this morning, i def feel your pain lol.

well, this car started out as just something to get me from point A to point B. It was an auto, then i swapped my b20 in and did the auto to manual conversion. then, i painted the car. then comes the vtec head where all hell just breaks loose. then me being an idiot went up to 7200k rpm untuned and thought i was cool. spun my rod bearings and warped them to a point of no return. next was my ls block and once again being an idiot didn't use 91 octane on a high compression car. I took it to get tuned and it was pinging and then out goes the bearings on that one. I guess there's just gotta be a fine line when you actually just stop throwing money away. My luck was just because I was dumb. (saying that so you guys don't have to call me dumb. haha) But for those who are contemplating wether selling their cars or not, I'd say just think about it real clearly. Are you gonna be better off with this car, or not. I just decided that I was over this, so I got a reliable car, which i might say is a banging car.

Man, u're telling me. She came to see the car and she was one block away from the dealer ship. I guess she wasn't paying attention and rear ended some van. Both air bags deployed. Maybe total loss??? Hopefully, so she gets a new car. Just for those who do live in SOCAL, I got my car from Saigon Auto on Garden Grove and magnolia, they hooked it up big time!!
