Debating on what type of car to get...thinking about a 3rd gen integra GSR. I wanted to do the front JDM ITR front conversion and wanted information on a reliable/reasonably priced place to order the kit from. Also any important things I need to know about this conversion? one more question...out of the 3rd generation GSR models which year would you recommend for a moderate street/drag car. I want to add the basic bolt ons/internals maybe forced induction but thats kinda iffy. alohas

I just saw a post on this this morning man. Use the search button.

 

I don't know a lot about drag racing or modding cars at all but look up '94-95 Tegs, something about the ODBI being easier to work with? This is me trying to help... haha

 

94-95 for sure

rs is lightest but my SE has all the goodies and the little bit of weight difference can be made up for with boost....

 

any other information about the conversion itself...i know that most packages usually include fenders, bumper, hood, lights, and radiator mount(?)...anything else that i will need?...has anyone done this conversion before? please post...
alohas

 

search... been discusses 8000000 times

$2-3k for parts give or take....

just search and see what it's going for now...

 

as far as the conversion....its pretty much just replacing the fenders, bumper, radiator mount, lights and hood right? any other little things that need to be taken into account...as far as i know the JDM conversion kits sold at most internet sites include these things...anybody know i good site with affordable prices and good service....i live in hawaii so shipping might complicate things... from the impression im getting i think that the parts are direct replacements for the stock parts... correct me if im wrong please...
another question...what year 2-door GSR model would you recommend for the swap...i want to add some basic bolt ons/internals/maybe a turbo...im tryin to get the whole JDM thing ... any help is appreciated.

 

the conversion requires headlights, front bumper, fenders, hood, jdm radiator support, bumper support and bumper reinforcement.

passwordjdm.com sells a used conversion for around 1700. hope that helps.

 

well right now with the help of my friend we're currently piecing together my jdm front. if you're going for the OEM look. i'd recommend you stick with the real oem parts not that fiberglass stuff. well if you want to buy the kit as a whole don't expect it to be cheap. the kit should include the following fenders (left/right), headlights (left/right, black housing non-hid, or hids but more expensive), hood, bumper, bumper support, reinforcement bars, radiator support, and theres a lip but its optional . if you are looking for a full JDM ITR conversion (comes with blackhousing headlights) you should expect to pay 1700 for the kit alone or if you want HIDS you should expect to pay about 2200+, the radiator support is the only thing that you basically will have trouble with if you're gonna be doing this by yourself i believe.. since you have to weld it on.. if you find someone that can help you piece together a jdm front it would be so much easier and cheaper.. im piecing together mine and its only gonna cost me 1500 and thats with a c-west full bodykit

 

thanks everyone
i kinda wanted to JDM ITR look...this conversion will probably be done a while down the road... i wanted to get information now to plan ahead...
another question....since you have to weld this new JDM radiator support...does it mean that converting back the the "double eye" headlights/ stock front end will become harder to complete? whats the diff between non-HID and HID headlights??
i want to probably go for the genuine OEM honda parts...anyone know any good sites to find the package?

ev0luti0n : your car sounds like it will be sick...im really into that JDM ITR look...do you know a good site to pick up other JDM parts like...the honda integra stock rims? or interior accessories..like the shift boot council, etc.?

mahalos for the help

 

HID are alot brighter then non-hid haha thats all i know.. and they look cooler too haha..
