Default SixFiveOh's DA Timeline

Figured I'd dedicate a thread to it before it leaves me for good. After some thought, I decided not to keep two cars and just say goodbye to Honda for a while. So here's a little chronological timeline of Emily for you guys.

Picked her up in November as a replacement for the totaled CL.





Said my farewells to the CL, and got MAD JDM! Removed Integra sticker, added H and Honda emblems, added 92-93 tails.









Then I decided to paint it. I was gonna go with a respray at Maaco, but ended up doing the $50 paint job. I don't know why I did it, and I regret it now, but for what it was, it was damn sweet.

You can see my full organized $50 Paint Job thread here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1830022

**** was rough, looked decent some days, looked horrible others:







Then, I lowered it on Ksport full coilovers and added JDM amber turn signals.



It was about this point when I realized my car was beginning to look like ****. I really buckled down on finishing the paint, and really making the moldings look good. After a week or so and a set of JDM one pieces later, this is how it looked.



Then came the wheels. Buddyclubs wrapped in brand new Falken 512s









The stock exhaust had to go, so I went with a JDMcarboy twin loop. Looked and sounded good enough for me.





Around this time, the car was frustrating me. My camber wear had lead to one blowout and damn near another one. I was going through catalytic converters like it was going out of style. I started making some decent money, so I opted for the purchase of a cleaner, more high class automobile, and planned on keeping the teg around for the future...





I loved the new car. The Integra now just sat at home, waiting for that day when I'd start getting into more serious mods for it. But today, while I was at work and she sat at home, there was a little mishap.





My neighbor backed his truck into her. Wasn't too big of a deal, I have his insurance info, and I know it's very fixable, but that was sort of the straw that broke the camel's back. I've had enough of it. Hopefully they total the car, it can't be worth much, so I can collect a check and sell off the parts. It was fun, she was fun as all hell in the turns, and I put alot of hours into her, but it's time to move on.


And my favorite picture of her

I'm hoping so. I would have much rather sold it to someone who would fix her up than have it sit in a junkyard the rest of it's life

Thanks. I know that would have fixed it, however when I got my new tires put on, the Wheel Works I was at told me my car was too low to fit on the rack, and that I'd have to go to another location with a rack that would fit my car. I just never got around to it and never would have thought brand new tires would only last 2 months

Heck no!

Intrax race springs and stock shocks till I die ...LOL!

This car has been sitting like this since 1999-2000ish. The previous owner did it...surprisingly, the shocks are not blown. It just rides like a Coupe DeVille

Never know, at this point, I'm crossing my fingers for a total. Would take away the hassle of trying to sell it. When my Legend got in a fender bender with similar damage, a body shop quoted some ridiculous number like $2000 for a fix, and I can't imagine the worth of my Integra being much more than $1500 to the insurance company.
