Go buy an ITR....

 

[posol]

seriously. it will be cheaper

why exactly do you need this?

Ok the motor swap I can see...maybe even parts the suspension. But why the body parts.

If you're putting it on a hatch or coupe, just get an ITR it really will be cheaper.

i have an itr shell thats missing those parts

 

[92civicb18b1]

oh ok....my suggestion would be to sell the shell, you're not going to get much but its better than nothing and buy an ITR or GSR or a hatch and then do a swap.

Just drop a gsr motor or a frank put a body kit on it - and call it a day- wont find the parts you need any where cheap or available much at all ebay is the best bet

im looking to spend about 3500-4000 for engine swap. 1000-1500 for suspension.
1000 for interior and another 1000 for body parts. i bought the shell for $1500.
so its gonna cost me $8000-9000 for a 2001 type r with a clean title. so how is it cheaper for me to buy a complete one for $14000-$20000

 

[ripperbone]

good buyer I can vouch for him.

your prices are pretty low... you are't getting an itr motor swap for under 5k. jsut the 5-lug conversion with wheels goes for 1000-1200. then, you still need all the lca's, springs, shocks, etc etc...
seats- are huge money.

i dunno...

more power to ya if you want to pull if off... but it can be done- i just don't think its cost effective.

i say do the motor, and do the rest with gsr parts. it will save you a heck of a lot of money.

with the grs its parts its not worth jack shit

no matter how good you are at rebuilding stuff and finding stuff in 100% mint condition, it will never be like a factory built oem ITR. and if you got an ITr shell, chances are it was a stolen recovery or crashed, which means that that title isn't clear-- and well, there goes allt he value in the first place.

i dunno man- its your car and cash- do what you want. i just think its a waste of money.

 

[Mikevr4n]

its a recovered theft and its a clean title because someone stole it from the guy i bought it from and he only had liability insurance so the insurence dident cover any of the damage thus its a clean title. ALSO PLEASE DONT RESPOND WITH ADVICE IM LOOKIN FOR THE PARTS NOT ADVICE. THANX
