Default click here to follow hondaboy4life's car building adventure

I'm lazy, an engineering college student, broke, and I don't give a damn. So please... sit back, relax, and watch as my car gets built.

My story:
I grew up in Maine. It sucked. Now I'm in college studying to be a Mechanical Engineer. I am a sophmore and recently moved into a house here in Charlotte, North Carolina with two other honda fanatics; Get_Nice, and Sh!tsweak. I purchased this car outside of Boston over Christmas break and haven't touched it much yet. Well, I've gotten that itch to do a build again so... let the games begin.

Plans:
ls/vtec
brake line tuck
wire tuck
replacing of some parts

What I'm building the car for:
HPDE events and daily driving.

Car:
1994 integra ls with 97,000 miles.

Here's one picture of how she used to look this summer.



EDIT: builds pretty much done! here's the outcome...

before:


after:
