Default Poor Man's PY ITR: Before/During/After PICS ---- 56K NOoo!

WARNING: The next few pics are very depressing.

Spet. 2002 I purchased this car thourgh a friend, who owns an auto body shop, from the car auction. Pictured is a stripped-to-the-bone ITR.







OUCH!

The car came with broken 4-lug and I put on JDM Integra 5-lug suspension. Yea,
rusty a$$ rotors and they've been resurfaced. Car was missing complete
front end, complete rear end, entire engine, entire suspension and brakes, entire interior parts. Basically bare shell/chassis.

Project ITR has begun.

Fully built 12-second 1.8L all-motor being assembled and installed.


Body parts...

Now it's done (except some body dings here and there that I need to fix still)









This project took me one year (using my weekend spare time). All the
putting on body parts to assembling engine, it's really time consuming.

The final project is worth it and the experience is

The motor dyno'ed at around 189whp and 139wtq with CTR cams. And it
ran 12.9@105mph.

Now the motor dyno'ed at 207whp and 139wtq with Skunk2 cams. And the
new time will soon to come. Hopefully mid-12s.

That's amazing. It was a theft recovery? Truely nice restoration.

BTW what kind of lug nuts are those? I thought it was best to use OEM nuts on OEM wheels?
