bro im lovin this coupe. when you do that rear disc swap you might want to invest in an ex brake master cylinder, booster and a DA integra proportioning valve off a car without abs but has rear disc, you'll thank me later. also what kind of spoiler is that?

Thanks man, Thats mainly what im going for. Function is what im all about and honestly would never own a pure show car. Any car I own needs to be able to be driven hard and not fall apart and has to handle well, not look slammed with -4 camber and stretched low pro tires on giant rims.

The body work is the last thing im looking at doing, it used to bother me but now after a few years I dont mind anymore it plus gives it more of a sleeper look. if I can find a good deal on some mint OEM body panels I will buy them up and keep them in the garage until the time for body and paint. I have already bought to front fenders and fitted one to the drivers side, just need a hood and trunk. Im also going to replace the roof with something a little nicer. once I get to the point were the car is only needing paint and body thats when im going to do it.

lol....ummmmm.....no I am lazy but I also wanted to wait till I got some more parts together before I did. I was going to do the full install this month but I lost my job at the of may so that was a huge curve ball and currently have no money to spend on parts and the alignment.

Damn I feel your pain on the job loss, but you will find something better to finish your cb.

Finally took off my shitty non fitting (huge uneven gaps all around) ebay corner lens and replaced them with stock ones.....now comes the retro fit of the amber lens onto the stock bodies.

I have a new shift knob now, My buddies DA integra was rear ended and was totaled out. He had the shift knob laying around and said I could have it. Its a barely used weighted Skunk 2 shift knob and it feels so damn good, makes shifting so smooth and on point. It doesn't look to bad either.

*Pics were taken with my phone and are 100% raw image...Came out great for a phone.

Thanks man, I have had some set back so it no where near where I would like it...But whos car is right but it is getting back on track.


I have also have now replaced my 20yr mangled shift arm bushing with a custom DIY solid bushing and it feels so damn smooth, with no play at all. I also tightened up a few things around the car... bored with nothing to do so I am knocking out all of those minor old car annoyances.
