Hey, some of ye might know this car from the Graveyard. I've been trying to track it down since and figured she was sent to the scrappers by now. She was sitting with the engine gone in rough looking shape. Well the dirt was undercoating and dust from the dirt roads in Labrador and now she's alive with a sir b16 and in my hands finally.

I have the original engine but it needs a rebuild. Original rims need refinishing and car needs tlc but it works and I just drove it 500kms home. Got it cheaper than we could get an Integra R motor swap online.
In the pics the owner sent me one of the armrest number but it was missing when I got the car. :/. I ordered a replacement. Can anyone tell me my number if they are all in the pic so I can get the new one engraved.

Anyways we all love pics so here is some

 

A trailer hitch!!!

And gone

 

Looks like you found your first love all over again. Hats off to you sir.

 

Nice find man. Congrats!

 

good to read!! a reborn of a itr!!

 

Love threads like these.

 

damn! Newfoundland! didn't know ITR's made it to the rock. lol! j/k congrats on the pick-up and GL on the resto. You can hit up Doespike for any VIN or badge number inquiries. Canadian ITR's have more limited info IIRC. It looks like you have a pic of the badge already so you can just get the replacement you bought engraved accordingly.

 

Thxs folks. She needs a fair amount of work but it's better than the last three Integras I've owned to me. The rest weren't type R's. when I tuck her in with my buds NSX for the winter I'll try to get a pic of them both together .
Lol, And yes it's hard to believe in Newfoundland there would be one. Better yet there is two. My buddy had a championship white one. Originally from Alberta tho.

 

nice job, GL on rebuild, the rust fixing is gonna suck lol

 

Awesome. Good job on bringing it back to life. Every R is worth saving, and some more TLC and it'll look perfect!

 

Congrats Brockey. Know you have been trying to track down the owner for a while.
Hey fill us in more on the motor.

 

Good save!

 

It's good to see this. it looks like a nice solid example.

 

The car has no rust really. It's got mounds of undercoating on it which has saved her thank God.
Thxs folks. When I get to tear into the original motor I'll update. Right now the car is running on a sir b16 with the itr cams and intake. Apparently the b18c popped the timing belt and after they rebuilt the head they had a knocking in the bottom end. I can't wait to rebuild the original.

 

Engine rebuild plus a whole lot of cleaning you'll have yourself a winner! Keep us updated.

GL

 

Great story, thanks for sharing. Enjoy!

 

Nice Man

 

Congrats! Good luck on the rebuild! Nice to see R's still getting the love. All those for sale examples this year had me thinking people thought the R was passe. All I have to do is take mine for a drive, and all is right with the world.

 

00-0782 seems to be her numbers man, atleast the numbers that matter. The Armrest can be switched from car to car but w/e. Good stuff man!

 

Is it a 2000?

 

looks like fun!

 

Awesome to see another PY ITR saved!

 

I always love the Type R saving threads
