As many of you probably know having an R doesn't suit many lifestyles, cities, and living conditions. Just moved provinces and found myself in a position to buy one again. Looked at a bunch but it is very hard to find an unmolested car with stock interior, minor mods, good paint, good past owners, and that was taken care of.

Owned 97-0166, 00-0914, and the other was 98-0629. Needs a bunch of minor work to freshen it back up again. Typical stuff like rear hatch actuator, rear tail light gaskets, new grounds, cleaning up some wiring and maintenance. After that just plan on doing some better suspension, and hardrace bushings. The oem shocks and comptech springs is a bad combo.
Only mods are aem cai, t1r 63mm cat back, short shifter, and the springs. Out of all the integra's I've owned (probably around 10), this has the nicest interior as well. Better pics coming later on.


When I went to get plates I found this jem waiting for me! Made my day!!!

 

Welcome back. I went with OEM over the Hardrace, might be something to look into.

 

YEAH BUDDY

 

Welcome back. I went with Hardrace bushings and they worked out well for everything but the LCA's. The rubber started seperating from the metal housing and I ended up going with Function 7 only because they had a spherical option.

The rest of the bushings are holding up well but you can never go wrong with fresh OEM bits. I also went with Kingpin lower compliance bushings.

 

Looks good!

 

Nice R!!!

 

Nice to see a fellow British Columbian. Are you in the Vancouver area?

 

Yep!

 

Car looks great! Congrats!

 

Can't see pictures at work.

 

congrats! the R looks pristine!! showroom condition.

 

Nice! Another local R. Was this the one from the interior? Kelowna I think?

That's a gem of a plate too!

 

Nice. Best of luck.

 

Every very clean.

 

Will you be trying to make the Revscene March 22 meet? I'll be heading over there with my R, would be nice to see some more!

 

Not familiar with the scene out here and didn't know about it.

 

It's planned at Spanish Banks right by UBC. Last year there was around 700-800 cars that showed up. It's pretty big, there was about 7-8 ITR's too!

 

Car Looks Great.

I will plan on attending the Revscene Meet this Spring ,Unless I get snow up here.

 

Looks like I'm off work so I'll try and make it out.

 

nice pickup. car looks awesome. post more pics

 

She needed some work on a bunch of miscellaneous wiring it had all over, and the horn wasn't working.
Got rid of the old wiring, ground everything properly, got the horn working properly, and cleaned the aem cai filter.
Let me know if anyone has a mugen intake they'd like to sell for a reasonable amount.

 

Keep working on the caR to keep it maintained well, and maybe add a couple hp or 2.

Oil change, tail light gaskets, tranny fluid change, valve adjustment, plugs and just picked up this gem today!!!

Ordered from hytech, and it's F'n beautiful! Getting it installed Wednesday.

 

Nice pick up!

 

Nice muffler keep it up!! Your r reminds me of mine when I bought it, mine had the same aem red CAI with bad homemade mounting hardware.

After all these years the aem is still on my r only now it's a short ram arm that connects to a stock air box with modified oem snorkel and v stack.

I must admit though the aem sounds awesome, especially at highway speeds. How bad is the vibration in yours? Because there was no rubber bushing to dampen the vibration the aem would get tiring from the constant vibration, even my shift rods would vibrate the shifter, it was awful but I haven't been in a car with an aem CAI mounted correctly, I'm going assuming yours is, if so, how do u like it?

 

I'm currently looking for Mugen Intake if I can find one at a decent price.

The AEM is a pain to clean because of the filter placement. Also it is making some noise because of how it's mounted. I do have rubber bushings under the mounting point but the whole thing is solid and vibrates when the engine flexes.
Can't comment on the sound because my t1r exhaust drones it out on the hyway. I'm selling the t1r muffler if anyone wants it.
