Haha, nope. The Integra has been my only mode of transportation for 7 years(on March 1st actually). Can't exactly just rip it apart. I need to get to work. Once I finally get settled with a good job and another car after grad school the car will improve by leaps and bounds.
So the oil leak I mentioned before is now fixed 
Apparently I didn't fix the cam seal leak the first time so I just went ahead and got a Blox cam seal and called it a day. Been a week with no sign of a leak But I also changed the VTEC solenoid gasket at the same time just to be sure so it could have been either one lol.
I also got new suspension... https://hondaswap.com/wheels-suspension-tires-brakes/dropzone-coilovers-review-497025/#post1607651

Thanksnice
i love this car, its badass looking.
i think i have a new soft spot for 4dr gsr's.. right next to that spot for 4dr accords
Your hatch is probably faster though
The motor in my car runs strong. I just gave it a full tune up, minus the fuel filter, and it seems to pull stronger up top than it did when I first got it
When I pulled off the spark plug wire cover, the wires had brown spots all over them lol. It was weird...
looking good buddy
Thanks

well, thats not even a fair comparison.
you get rid of those te37s yet? figure someone woulda snatched those by now.
The only way it's ever going to be a goner is if it gets totaled. I'm never selling it. Plus I plan on getting a truck so I'll still love the Teg for the gas mileage.
To me, faster is faster
Nah, not yet. Nothing but low balls. Some guy offered me Fit wheels for a straight trade lol. I swear people want to pay next to nothing for things and then act like it's made of gold when it's time to sell. I think my price is fair
So i'll just keep them for now. I will sell them FOR SURE around July-August. I'll be getting some money from school and i'm going to be getting some more goodies for the car
16x7 takata green te37's, Cold Air Intake, Blox 68mm throttle body, Skunk2 Intake manifold, Skunk2 Stage 1 cams (or another brand with similar specs), JDM ITR Header (the US ITR 4-2-1 header is crap lol), custom 2 1/2 inch mandrel bent exhaust with a Magnaflow High-Flow cat. I haven't decided on which muffler I wanna go with. Since i'm getting mandrel bent piping I just want a universal type muffler that looks/is shaped somewhat like the stock muffler. Just has to have a 2 1/2 inch inlet.
hes getting bigger he can finally fit in his newborn clothes, still fussy as hell, we been working on him to sleep better at nightThanks
How's the little guy doing?
That's good. Did the doctors say he could have something that's making him fussy? Like acid reflux?
Hmm... Link?
yes, but i have built my car.. you havent started yet.To me, faster is faster

sounds like youve got a lot of plans. are you trying to keep from changing the valvesprings/retainers?
i have a dynomax super turbo muffler ready to go on my car, ill let you know how it sounds. i got it in 3" and itll be 3" straight from the turbo back to the muffler. hoping it is semi-quiet.
something like this:
Dynomax - Super Turbo Universal 17734 - StreetSideAuto
Still fasteryes, but i have built my car.. you havent started yet.

Not only am I trying to keep from needing springs and retainers, I don't plan on running enough compression to take advantage of stage 2's or higher. Plus I need to be able to stay smog legal and run pump gas (91 over here
) When the time comes to rebuild the block, it's not going to see more than 11:1 compression pistons.That link is 404'd...
Sick, but my 4 door will never see boost. Maybe 60-80 shot but that's the extent of it.
My plan is to just have a fun daily driver that I can also shuttle my kids around in. I will be building a full race car that will be nothing but one big ball of boost lol. I'll be aiming for as much HP as possible. At least 600 whp is my goal.
