The deal was to good to pass up.

Always wanted one, but never thought I'd get one so soon.
As it sits currently, it has a Mugen twin loop, and a Blitz filter. Everything else is stock

Re: I wasn't really looking for a R, but....
I'm not the owner, but I'll fathom a guess. If you're talking about the rectangular thing on the front, that's probably a front-license plate holder. Some areas require a plate in front as well as back (mine does unfortunately).
Or if you're referring to what appears to be a black round thing in the air-openings, I'm guessing that's a foglight.

Re: I wasn't really looking for a R, but....
Yeah the black ones coming out of the bumper are fogs.
Well first things first i need a left hand side decal, as the other one came off while i was washing the car and now there is a very noticable outline left.
As for actual mods, my only plans for now are a JDM SRS steering wheel, red rear seats (CDM model), and a car alarm. Possibly a 5 lug conversion in the spring but still considering it.
Well I sold my 01 GSR and was looking for a new car and I told myself no more Hondas, especially Integras (I had 2 before and now this is my 3rd). I was originally planning on picking up a GC8 wrx but found none in decent shape and within my price range. So I dropped by a friends shop to see what he might have in stock and I saw this R there, a couple days later I ended up getting it.
And thanks to everyone

I got it for 6800. He had it originally listed for 9000ish. Two more sold before I got mine here in Alberta. Both went for around 8-9ish.
They are cheaper compared to lhd, though they are usually in better shape.

Keep it JDM 96 spec. The 4 lug is great....look at it this way....less rotation mass... Think inertia....very nice pick up at a cheap price...

Re: I wasn't really looking for a R, but....
I tried to Google this but came up with some conflicting info.
I was wondering if I order a timing belt kit for a 97 USDM/CDM ITR would that work for my 96?
Thanks
