Default finally i got my new car...

well ive been looking for awhile and came across an AWESOME deal so i had to ****** it up...yea i have problems like that...anyway check it out...








its an integra LS i picked it up for $1500...its really clean and since i live in michigan and got it from pennsylvania its extremely clean and has little to no rust...the interior has no rips or tears and from what i can see from the pictures there are no stains...i bought it from the dealer and who originally had it took GREAT care of it...but there is one problem...im surprised to see for whoever took such great care of it, that the engine burns oil intermittently...so as soon as i get my hands on this car(its being shipped right now) im ripping the engine out and rebuilding it myself, and i will go the boosted route with this.

SO my question is, since i know i dont have the tools for EVERYTHING expecially when it comes to block work, what do i need to take to the pro shop to have them do on a rebuild? i am definately having them put the sleeves in and i have no idea what it means to blueprint the block and i believe they have to remeasure the rod bearings and shave some off the crank journals...am i wrong? what all has to be done to get it done RIGHT?

Good price! Even if it was missing the motor, it's a great price for the rolling chassis.

DAMN YOU!!!! :D

i got my thunder gray rs for $3300 a couple of years ago. but after all the waiting and passing up other integras, i still think it was all worth it for me.

i love seeing other TGM tegs, idk they just seem rare to me.


congrats man! treat her well.
