Hi I just wanted to introduce myself, my friends call me Nar. I've been a car enthusiast for a long time. I've owned a Z, 5 FC RX7's, a 1st gen RX7, an RX3, 3 Toyota Supra's, and a BMW before I started getting into Hondas. Most recently I played with a pair of Accord hatchbacks but I heard how nice the Integras are so I decided to find out for myself.

I just bought a 92 Integra LS but its in rough shape. The previous owner must have curbed it pretty hard cause the whole right front suspension is bent. I'm in the process of replacing it.

I consider myself primarily a touge enthusiast but I was a high performance driving instructor at Thunderhill Raceway as well as a drifting judge/coach. I've also done some rally-x and auto-x.

Well after driving it around for a few days I've come up with a list of things I need to repair...

- Replace locks and ignition (the key barely works in the ignition and it doesn't work in any of the door locks)
- Replace shocks
- Replace Ebay springs
- Replace skylight
- Fix Cruise Control
- Fix gauge/dash lighting
- Replace APC headlights with stockers
- Install Stereo
- Replace cheap cannister muffler/ Fix rattly exhaust
- Fix E-Fan wiring harness

...and probably more I'm forgetting
