95B18BTurbo's build thread... "The Green Monster's Ghost"
So after 6 or so beloved years of building my last Integra, tradgedy struck. I was cruising home in a heavy downpour when the front tires hydroplaned, scrubbed a curb, and then spun me backwards into a telephone in the blink of an eye. So this is what went down from there...

Not long before the incident...

The day after the incident... a crying shame

A couple weeks later I picked up the new replacement shell...

Obsticles to overcome... yeah

Small view of a section of the wire tuck gone wrong. It took 20+ hours of work to trace, repair, and finish properly...

Semi tucked bay painted Rustoleum white to match the PPG Acura Pearl exterior better. Not my doing, but hey at least it wasn't green still...

Lower core support surprise! Surprise most of it's not there!

Another view of the carnage to fit a half radiator and backdoor intercooler...

Dropped the motor and trans in...

Out with the old and in with the new! Nothing a little drilling, measuring, and welding couldn't fix!


All primed and painted, yes that is spray bombed but it is 100 times better than before!

Sneak peak while swapping the suspension over...

Finally road worthy awhile later to get her registered and a new windshield...





Clear views and cleaned up!

Not big on stickers and whatnot, but my roomate bought it so I'll rock it...

Monkey bars in the back and Recaros up front!

Sitting fairly fresh minus the previous owner's bumper hack/scrapage...


A night out on the town...


A little three wheeling action for you...

Oh and sneak peak what's on the inside. 87x84mm of sleeved and forged goodness!


I would have taken more pictures doing all the wire repairs/tucking, sanding, painting, welding, and turning wrench but I was short on time to finish it before I deployed. I gave her a tune up before I left and she was pulling nice a strong at 23.6ish PSI on my 93 pump gas street tune! On a Mustang Dyno, the old car made 297.6whp and 234wtrq on an old tired stock GSR w/ the EVO III 16g at 16psi for reference. All work was done by myself in my garage/driveway or SenecalFAB as we like to call it. Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoy!

Thank everyone. I don't take kindly to failure, it's just not in my heart so I had to make a comeback! I still have the R front end in my garage, but I'm not sure if I'll put it on the new car. I'd rather have a 94-97 front end with the SiR lip to be honest.

Driveshaft Shop 2.9 axles are ordered and should be on the way.
Just started eyeballing the P1 Spec lip/splitter combo as my next upgrade.

Yes I'm going to delete the internal wastegate on it as I did with my EVO III 16g. It's a Slowboy Racing g60 turbo. Basically a .60trim turbo with a 8cm DSM TD05 housing that will bolt right up into my current custom setup.
wow dude your old dc4 was sexy!,
sucks what happened!, buy hey very nice come back
so stoked to see more and learn somethings.
