Default Greetings from Holland.

Hi, almost new here so I thought I would introduce myself.
Name: Frank.
Owns: Integra Type R.

History:
Before the ITR i drove a CRX with an d16z5 engine.
I drove it for about 2 years but then decided it should get faster.
I got a JDM b16a (1st Gen) and used the ITR lsd with that.
Pics: Old engine removed

New engine:

New engine:

Old engine:

New welded engine mount:

Other replaced mount:

Friend putting in new gauge cluster:

Result:


Sorry, I don't have any engine bay pics.

Anyway, after having driven this setup for about a year I decided to buy another car. After looking around for a while I fell in love with the ITR.
So after selling the crx I bought this ITR.
The car is mine for a year now, and it has some small mods:
The foglight has been removed from the rear bumper (no pic)
It has an Invidia cat-back exhaust system.
Few (older) pics:






Well, that's it.

Nice pics!! Why did you have to weld in a passenger's side mount for the CRX? You couldn't have just used the factory one with a aftermarket mount kit for the b16 swap?

Thanx all for the welcome

Mad ITR 55:
Yes, that was possible, but I learned that the car would have a lot more shaking because of the tougher rubber mounts of the engine. And this way I could use the originals...
