Default Ash's NZ DA8 Xsi Build

Sup guy's

Has been awhile since ive been on here. I attempted a da8 build a few years back when i first signed up, and its fair to say it was a fail haha but did get better along the way.

Now that i've got some experience behind me I defiantly want too get a "build" done. And the way its happened, Im back with a DA8

This is going to be a budget build, with the focus of being clean, different, fun and not buying in to the big brand names for "jdm" points

1990 Honda Integra Xsi DA8

Killometers: 325,xxxkms

Paint: primer

Interior: Mix of blue and black interior
missing alot of peices

Engine:
90 B16a
b16a2 Intake manifold
Random intake pipe
no name pod filter
4 to 2 to 1 extractors
2.5 straight through exhaust. no muffler

Gearbox:
s1
open diff

Susspension:
unknown front lowering springs/std shock
unknown adjustable coils in rear

Wheels:
STD 90 DA8 xsi alloys

Now for some pics

EG steering wheel is surprisingly cool in a DA lol

todays little job was to refit the bumber. it was missing the white bracket bit, and by chance i still had one!! so pretty lucky

While it was off, gave it a little tidy up. Cut out A/C loom and put harness back in OEM spot and mounted relays etc. Resprayed black with paint i grabbed from work. took off lights and resprayed the radiator support as it was purple. and gave the radiator top tank a quick spray.

reassembled then went for a cruise

I somehow managed to miss getting a picture of it all paited etc....do'h
