Default FS : D Street Prepared GS-R

I hate to sell this car. My plans for making it my track car have been foiled. Unfortunatly plans for buying a house do not support two play cars. My roomates are talking about moving which means its time for me to grow-up and get a home . I figure I'd let you guys have a shot at it before I start restoring it to stock specs.


All the details

Thanks Carl... I'd definitly like to see it continue its career as a DSP car or at least go somewhere in the racing community. I just can't justify the car, the upgrades, and a house.

For any who might be interest my plan for 2004 consisted of the following...
-Motor rebuild
-Battery relocation
-Seats
-Steering Wheel
-Experiment with offset bushings up front
-Experiment with wheel spacers
-Experiment with 50 series tires (fender trim required)
-Motor mounts (if I remember this was/will be approved)
-Radio Delete (if I remember this was/will be approved)

Anyone serious about SP would do well to look into this car. It is capable to doing very well in DSP. Good luck with the sale and house hunting.

I'll be doing those three. Got the delrin, got the plans, just have to machine em. So, if there are other integra autocrossers out there that are interested, lemme know!

I definitly think there is speed to be found here (with the offset bushings). Let me know how your testing goes. I'm very curious to hear the results.

EDIT : Someone should buy my car and try this with it!!!!!!

the Atlanta ProSolo will tell me how well offset bushings work.

and believe me, I'd love to buy your car, but I'm still just a broke-*** college racer

Over $20k invested in the development of this car! $10k put into it in 2003 alone! you won't find a better deal for a faster solo II GS-R ANYWHERE!

Put stock Hype-Rs to shame on the local autocross course with the comfort of leather AND a sunroof! Its that easy! Buy this car!!!!

All man all that work we did to your car and now you are selling it, but its understandable especially considering you are trying to purchase a house. Good luck

what?? but it's the American Way my friend - debt debt debt, baby!


no seriously, as much as it sucks, I applaud you for doing what's best for your financial future. I wish I could say the same for myself.

-Ben, who thinks "paying off his debt" means putting money aside to save for more go-fast parts, so he doesn't have to use the CC for them later, instead of just sending the money to Mastercard to being with.

IM / PM and I'll email you the details if you are still curious or still can't access the link.

<FONT COLOR="#FF0000">UPDATE!!</FONT>
I'm begining the whole process of parting out the car. If you have any interest in specific components let me know. Make me offers. BUY MY STUFF!!!! Some things like the LSD are still a few weeks away from being removed but if you want it... let me know it will increase my motivation to remove it!!!!!

Everything is basicly first come first serve. Some have asked for specific components already so they'll get the first shot at them. If you need any details about a specific part let me know... I'll give you the complete skinny.

Check what's available, pending sale, or sold here

it can only keep up with the R once you put on those silly toy wheels and make your suspension unbearably stiff. otherwise it's nothing but bling

Wow! I'd love to give that car a home but there's just no way ... unless you're accepting a first-born as payment. I could, however, give some of those parts a good home in my (soon-to-be) DSP Integra if you're still parting it out. I'll have to try to catch you online sometime soon.
