Default had to get a daily driver cause my last daily driver turned in to a full track car some how

sup guys i just bought this car around Dec. '07 and i wanted to share it with you guys. it is a 1998 Acura Integra gsr pretty much bone stock no mods with everything in working order. from a/c to ps to cruise control. i know its not fully built or fast but it was refreshing to get into a Honda/acura that wasn't squeaking loud or hard to turn in, in fact it is pleasant drive. i'm hoping to keep this as legal as possible cause i have the habit of buying something and swearing up and down i'm not going to mod it and you all now how that go's. but anyways the plans are to just keep it simple, clean and functional. the car has original paint, leather int, gsr blades, 130k on it. i couldn't believe how clean the car was when i bought it. sometimes out here it is hard to find a clean Honda/Acura to many people get there hands in them and create a mess. so i was happy to see the engine, wiring, interior was unmolested. i might do simple bolt on's but i'm not sure yet. i am in the middle of rebuilding my k series eg that is consuming my income at the time being. thanks for looking.

2/19/08: so i think this is a good car for me to try something else other than drag racing. (and to keep me busy during the off season) i've always liked the idea of road courses but i pretty much just focused the budget on my pro am all motor drag eg, i plan to make this dc in to a mild road-race/time-attack/daily. i am still making my pro am all motor eg the priority but when i get some extra money i think some skunk2 tuning is needed on this. i'll keep you all posted. as i plan to do some suspension and performance upgrades soon.




again noting special to many of you but im glad to have it like this right now..
i drive by/next to cops all day with a smerk/grin on my face..
