So after blowing up my new ITR about 700 miles after I bought it (massive thrust washer failure leading to broken piston skirts and f*cked bearings,) I did an OEM rebuild and got it back on the road. A little bit has changed in the last month or so:

F&F Type One coilovers
EDM Rear tailights and Cluster
OEM Acura USDM Fog lights

and motor wise:
RS Machine PR3 pistons
ACL Race bearings
Micro-polished the crank
Exedy OEM Clutch replacement
ARP Headstuds
P/S Removal Kit
and every gasket from the oil pan to the valve cover replaced

Here is a picture of the carnage that damn thrust washer did:


And what the car looked like when I first bought it:


And now:







And my favorite of the shoot (sometimes you just get lucky)

 

That's a mighty clean caR! You gonna put the spoiler back on?

 

glad shes up again. Double check the wing bolts think your wing fell off.

 

No sir. That is one of the few, actually, the only thing I dislike about ITR's. I know that it's functional and all, but I'm not really a wing kinda guy

 

What did the rebuild cost you? I ask because one is in my future as well

 

cool nice to see, im rocking that cluster and tails too lol

 

Looks good.

 

Keep Up the great work...same thing happened to me I bought my R and 1500 miles later the motor blows out of no where.. really sucks

 

I dunno, about 1500 dollars or so. I added some much extra stuff (like the P/S removal kit which I used all A-N fittings for, oil cooler setup, etc.)

 

looks wonderful.

 

is that not a usdm stock cluster?

 

Could use a new valve cover soon, however the drop is perfect. Nice work SiR.

 

CLEANESS!!!

 

Looks pretty damn clean to me Will she be flyin' wingless to Expo?

 

Thats clean! They look so much better with coilovers.

 

It's the UKDM one. It's in MPH just like the USDM one

 

Congrats on getting it running! Take care.

*not thread jacking * I have a UKDM cluster for sale.

 

Nice itr,glad you fixed her. Love the stance and wingless on the itr, btw I have cluster/tails too

 

Im feel the same way man!
