Default My 98 GSR (Not JDM) -56K???

I have had my 98 GSR for about 18 months, but I wrecked it 8 months ago and it has been in the body shop getting all this work done. This will be a show car. I know that I need to do some engine work, I have half a turbo setup in my garage that should be done this Christmas. If you have any questions about what's done to it let me know, I don't want to put a list.

The paint has orange flake in the orange pearl paint, plus it has orange flake in the black paint, and it has a orange flake clear coat!!! The pictures don't do this paint job justice.

New wheels, 15's or 16's are coming soon. Bigger wheels, 18-19 will be for show.










I don't care if you don't like it, it's my car, but let me know what you think anyways.

Yes it is. I don't want to be like anyone else.

I am trying to decide if I should get a c/f hood and trunk. I like the C-West bumper, but not as much as the WW.

I want to show it eventually but I don't like it to be gawdy or have a ton of decals, plus I have always liked the vertical doors. Mine aren't your typical Lambo doors, they are basically custom and power so they are a good show piece.

Believe me when i say this...Pictures do not do this car justice at all. The orange has an Orange flake in it which in the sun sticks out and looks unreal, and the black roof has a gold flake that also looks awesome. Honestly this is probably one of the best looking paint jobs on anything i have ever seen, and I am very picky!

I'm actually diggin' this one. Looks like it could use some bigger rims, say like 16's or 17's tops. Oh yeah, where are your front turn signals?

The turn signals are inside the bumper on both sides. Like the 5th to last pic you can see the light behind the grill

I'd get different rims and would've painted the top orange (but it looks ok black). Also it if were me I'd go wingless

Because the orange is so bright, I decided to paint the roof black and break it up a little bit. I am getting new rims soon. But I am never going to go wingless. I don't think it looks good at all. I think it makes Integras look like it's lacking something.

from what that guy said about the paint it seems nice. But imo i'd still veere away from that front bumper and side skirts. What wheels are you planning on getting?

kinda reminds me of a bare 240 from signal in one of the pics about half way down, side shot, with everything (doors, hood, trunk) closed

I am thinking of doing 15/16 rota circuit 8's or grids.

lol....it's funny you mention that because that was kind of my inspiration. I have always liked those drift cars and I wanted something resmebling that. At first it was just going to be all orange, then when I saw the engine bay painted I thought it was too bright. So I decided to paint the roof/pillars black like the signal 240's.
