Default What to buy with $550 for My Integra

Ok I have $550 to spend on my integra ls. Right now I have i/h/tp/exhaust/shocks/springs/wheels/tires/type r wing/clutch/flywheel/strutbars
I am thinking of getting the side moldings/antenna shaved and sides repainted/matched. I am also thinking of buying a zex nitrous kit and not installing it and saving up to run it right like get new pistons/rods gaskets fuel managment and all that other stuff. what other ideas do you guys have that I should get.

I would get a jdm wheel, either with the airbag if your car has it, or without the airbag. I think that wheel is sweet.

Sell your tranny and buy a JDM tranny + difference.

Seriously dude, if you want to feel a noticable diff in acceleration, ditch your tranny and get a b16 tranny because its cheaper than the itr tranny. Lets refer to it as a poor man itr tranny hehe, almost the same gearing minus the lsd and beefier build, but still a great worthwhile mod if you ask me!!

Thats right. Just the ITR tranny has the LSD not the b16 tranny.

Would a new final drive help me wih my tranny gearing/acceleration. I just got my new act xtss clutch and 7.5lb fidanza flywheel put in 2 weeks ago and I kind of want to keep those in my car because it was a really nice improvment. Will my clutch/flywheel fit a b16 tranny or itr tranny

I would get the ITR rear sway bar with the BSQ kit. Save the rest and wait until you can do what you want all at once.

BUT GET THE SWAY BAR!!! Makes the car more fun to drive.

Since you want a better feul setup, you could start hooking this up by getting a better (high flow) feul rail, fuel filter, and a fuel regulator. Ir you do, go AEM. This would be a good start for better pistons in the future, and it's a little more or less than $550. Another good idea would be an MSD SCI (Sport Compact Ignition), with Blaster SS coils, and 8.5mm sparkplug wires and sparkpugs. This too is a little more or less than $500. Hope this helps you out .

your clutch and flywheel will fit up to a b16a tranny or a itr.

Brakes.

SS lines, better rotors (maybe even better calipers), better pads.
