Default Wingless GSR Info.

i searched and came up with a little bit of stuff but i wanted to know .. i'm planning on getting a GSR and i want oem ITR kits on it .. and that means the spoiler also but i don't want the aftermarket ITR spoilers with the break light.. so after taking off spoiler i will be left wih only 2 break lights.. now what to do?

get a 3rd break light maybe off an LS or somthing? and how would i mount it? i heard putting the holes in the glass would cost a shitload of money and if you do decide to take it off.. 2 very ugly holes to plug up.. any one have pics of how they did theirs also?

i just recently took my spoiler off my gsr... try 6 holes to plug up unless u get a spoiler that fits into stock mounts. for now i covered with electric tape since my gsr is black it just barely shows when ur a foot away. later will use sheet metal and bondo b4 repaint of trunk.

That's what I'd do.

And for those wondering why he doesn't want to run with only 2 brake lights, it's illegal.

Yes it's illegal, but whether you get pulled over or not depends on your local law enforcement and how seriously they will take it. I think passwordjdm sells the complete hatch assembly with the ITR spoiler already installed. I'm not sure about prices though.

I am not running a spoiler currently.

I would actually like to see some wind tunnel tests of Integras with no, GSR and ITR wings.

I took it on a drive right after I took the wing off and I swear the *** end felt more floaty than normal at high speeds around corners. Honestly it scared the crap out of me lol. Then again I had a stuck right rear caliper and that might have added to my problem of oversteer
