Default CTownIntegra's Spring break GSR Rebuild!

What can be accomplished in 3 days? Well I hope...
EDIT: AS OF MONDAY APRIL 23, IT WILL BE MY 5th Day of WORKING ON IT

Pull engine and transmission
Remove all of the ABS system completely
Possibly remove cruise
Remove everything else in the bay and paint a "super top secret color" inspired by SoHondaGarage's build thread.
Install new rotors and pads all the way round.
Make new brake lines
Paint engine and transmission.
Fix distributor oil leak.
Change Oil Pan gasket
Repaint Oil Pan
Hondata Intake gasket
All New Hoses
Install HASport Rear mount
Install Exedy Cerametallic clutch.
Mild wire tuck
Drop engine back in

....I'm sure I left something out.


All work will be performed on my 1995 Acura Integra GSR.

Why am I doing this in 3 days?
I just signed a lease on an apartment and cannot afford more than 3 days off.

Who is helping me?
Blake, the guy that helped me on my 48 hr straight turbo install and fabrication. When everyone else left, he didn't.

Where are the pics?
My fiancee' just bought me a brand spankin' new Sony 7.2MP camera.

When am I actually starting?
Parts are arriving everyday, from Honda, from NoLimitMotorSport, and random other places.

When does the install/project start?
April 10th @ Midnight (When I arrive back at home where my shop is) the car will be throw onto jackstands, I will then sleep for 6-8 hours and then start on it by myself until 12 noon when Blake gets of work.

Changed my plugs from Bosch Platinum (eeek!) to NGK Copper Core V-Powers on my lunch break yesterday. My car idles right now, and no more of that popping sound in the exhaust. NGK&gt;Bosch

Before it changes completley.



I am kinda pumped about this build, and kind of dreading it. I want to put the turbo back on sooo bad, but the motor needs to be built also, so I am forcing my self to just maintin it until I can afford it.
