Default Pics of my project Integra..

Just so you know, it's a project car right now as well as daily driven. I have done everything slowly because I don't have a job atm, but I've put alot of time and money into it since I bought it in June.




And before anyone asks why it's no longer LS/VTEC; I just didnt like it. The motor didnt feel as "reliable" as I would have liked. So I swapped in a B18B with some nice mods and nitrous. It will be boosted soon though

Btw, I traded my bent up Rotas for those LS rims. And I was amazed to see they were in MINT condition. The tires were good, and there isnt a single curb/scratch on the rims. And honestly, the car looks 100x better now with the mesh's.

So no, I dont plan on getting rims anytime soon since I want Volk SE37K's or GTP's, and those bad boys cost a grip!

EDIT: The car will be painted this weekend, so no more primer for me thank god!

anything over that primer to seal it? If not I hope it hasn't been that way for long, as primer will absorb moisture.

Might as well mold the moldings and shave your emblems before you paint it.

Yup, definitely a project, no paint + no clear corners.

sorry to hear you got rid of the ls/vtec. why did you feel that it was "unreliable"? i have had mine for almost a year and have never thought it to be unreliable. anyway good luck with your car.

i drove this car on numerous occasions. i never felt any problems with it. i would have kept it and sprayed it. it was fast as ****. we ran a vette with it. yeah so. i dont know man, its his car. couldnt talk him out of it. he wanted to get a cheaper motor, and get it painted and ****, that seemd to have fallen through. so i dont know what hell do now.

What do you consider your redline? And what is done to your engine?

Cool
I know a stock LS/V revved above 7K will start to get a little iffy.

Yup! My mechanic built a b20/v not sure of everything he did... but I know he overbored it, aftermarket rods/pistons compression is 12.1 i think. Full Jun valvetrain, lightweight fly, mugen intake, spoon header, mugen twin loop, mad stunna mugen valve cover. Revving to 11k, daily driven.

cool, my brother built a b20/vtec a few years back. he was running about the same setup, minus the cams and mugen and spoon stuff, he ran his to about 9-10k daily. but he sold it and got a truck.

allmtr ls_vtec - I remember you now. I was at Beech Bend once with Shawn, Lee, Ron Ron, David, my wife and a couple other people once. I lined up next to you in my white 4th gen (stock) Prelude Si. We jumped out of the whole and I was killing you, then by 3rd gear you complete RAPED me. I was like WTF!

I asked Lee if you were spraying and he was like "no, ls/vtec". I fell in love with 3rd gear with my ls/vtec, especially on the interstate. But I just wanted a more reliable motor. Plus I plan on going turbo 2.0L soon, so I won't miss the vtec much once I do that
