Default $200 beater teg build

This is a BUDGET build thread for a beater Integra I picked up as a learning tool for my girlfriend. We got this car to fix up, learn from, and hopefully sell for more than we paid for it

I'm currently working on several other builds, here is my other build thread https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-...build-3307962/

We got this Teg for $200 ( I actually traded an old impact for it ), the driver's knuckle was destroyed. I had to cross thread/ziptie the upper control arm to get the car home.




The OG owner told me it was blown up, but we will see once I do a compression check.


Gross.... The trunk wheel well had water sitting in it forever, so the rear is super nasty.



She is very proud of the car haha


Rusty, bad body work.

I will keep updating as we work on it! The first steps will be cleaning it, and seeing the condition of the motor.

Hooked everything back up (Last owner was pulling the motor), got a battery for free. We were trying to do a compression test but had issues with the free battery taking a charge haha


Look at that nasty white trash carpet. Gross.

I can't even handle working on cars that gross, so the first thing we did while the battery was charging was took out the carpet. We cleaned the inside pretty good, and tossed everything. The truck was the worst....


Better? I? Guess?
