Car: 95 Acura Integra GSR (sedan)

Objective: ***One1badDB8***

I got a 95 Integra GSR sedan in November of 07. I had another gsr back in 05 but a 3dr. So im not new at this. I bought the shell for $2,000 with a blown gsr motor.

Needed some TLC from me. Yup.

Why not go JDM FRONT?
Well, I like what I like, not what others like. Everyone and there mothers do the JDM front, although, it DOES look SICK. To me the front end on these car confuse the eye to others and pass as an Accord

Why not go 99-01 Front?
Same reason as the first just that I love the old school look, just pain OG. Thats another purpose of this buid. But of cousrse id still have the circle lights on there, but I like this style the BEST

Feel free to ASK ANY questions.

How the car looked when I brought it home. ehh Nikon Powershot. Upgraded to D40 somewhere along the build, so quality will be alot better.




The motor. Doesnt even look like it has a HOLE. Minty clean


My tires. Ill let the tags say the rest.


Yea I ride on Rotas atleast they are powder coated Chrome.


Heres a quick update:

More parts. (Note: I copy and pasted links from a my local forum build thread)




I also got a free mouse pad and a free passwordjdm keychain. Im all JDM :laugh:

Put on my bumper. Cleaned up some stuff. Bought all the Honda fluids and filled her up.



and Thanks to Art for the valve cover.(WHITE) Didnt flow with the car.


my RARE MUGEN cluster


Here's my Nardi classic wheel...and the NGR short hub with quick release.


Got my HID's. 4300K and installed them, and did my Oil Change "Honda FTW"




my new Benen Tripod Strut bar. (Chrome) yay yay. Limited Edition. ***No ebay***

I did a test fitment, and I need to customize the bar a bit. A small grinding, would do the work, since I got GC top hats, it hits very little.

On to the pictures.


P.S. Dont make fun of my room, its amess I know. lol

My Car with my front bumper off. I was installing my HIDS, and my bumper was getting painted.

My sivtec front lip. I thought i was going to [pejorative] out to put it on but it was easy.


My Nardi steering wheel and quick release when I first put it on. I spy Mugen.



When I received my front bumper from paint. Painter matched it pretty good. And next day...
Before:

(notice all the ugly rock chips and discoloring on the bottom.)

Afterainted front/sivtec lip, chrome "H"


The H.I.D.'s (4300k)


Notice the tight fit with the GC top hats and the benen strut bar


Here's where the real fun began. When I started receiving my suspension parts.
Blox Lower Control Arms


ASR Subframe (Getting ready for some love) After pictures later.


My Beaks Bar. Sending out for a re-touch


NGK wires.


Mugen Shift **** (Just Installed it already):smile_color:




How it'll look like.


I sent out my Beaks bar for some lovin. Youll see how it came out when you keep looking.

Like I said earlier on top, I got tired of my white VC because it didnt flow well. So...

I shaved off the letters sent it for Powder Coating.




Im also cleaning up my engine bay, like removing some black tar along the fenders and the firewall with some Turtle Rubbing Compound. Works Great.

(I need to get new washers, mine look off) MMM...wonder what Im going to do.

Feedback is welcomed.

Then came the day to slap on my suspension.
Oh yea and a pic of my JDM ITR sway




Then while it rained I went ahead and took a lunch break. i live in Laredo.


Then went back outside After I hit the *******.
How it looked all bare...


My suspension needing some TLC...


Out with the old lca.


After I bolted the things on I forgot to snap some after shots.




Cleaned out my JDM ITR sway bar


In the process


Me torquing down to specs everything..


Putting the sway bar on to the frame was lil hard, being myfirst but not my last time doing this. But here it is almost finished, just need to get my Beaks Bar back and my wheels.


This is the last update I have. After that Car Show was done I stashed it on me drive way, and right now Im doing to MAJOR WORK on the engine bay. Stay tuned.

My Beaks Bar, custom powder coated. Not spray paint. Its White BTW.






BAM!!!



Loading some pictures up tomorrow.

THanks man. I hope everything does go through to what Im doing right now. Its a pain in the ***. But its going to come out nice, if my vision comes true.

 

dope...im not a fan of the gt3's but your polished gt3's dont look half as bad.

Nice man, Advans on Rotas FTW lol.

The only thing I don't really like is the polished VC, looks out of place or something but the car looks damn good overall.
