Its a one owner, hens the (intactness), not sure if that's in the dictionary lol. Lots and lots of miles but the family was a great maintenance provider. I pulled the oil pan and valve cover and it was clean.
i c u are a lot like me in keeping up ur car too, nice work on ur 09.
I'm old for the average age here but love a good restoration. I sold a 93 hatch and bought this jewel with the money.
Thanks I'll keep up with that bad A$$ GE of yours ��

 

12/3/18:
re oiled the leather with Skidmore's leather cream.
replaced the t-stat and did a little un seen detailing on the engine.
Took her out for a 45 min. ride and the needle stayed put.
Power and comfort shweet!
Way different ride than the yellow 94 Integra LS R.
getting the suspension from RCA, its back ordered but should be her in 2 weeks.
2 new toyo tires are here, the Firestone tires are new but they're Firestones. Toyos all 4 corners.
upper adjustable camber kit/ control arms are in and the rear camber kit/arms.
top hats are here, when its all installed it'll be a different car.

 

pulled the front seats and vacuum then scrubbed.
Not really all that dirty for almost 20 years old.


a lot better. ��

 

thanks man...trying to take care of the GE without being too paranoid is the hard part.

good job on your progress...cant wait to see the suspension!

 

cool December day

 

Cool December day

 

 

My oldest gave dad a hand or two getting the old one off and this one on.
Painting is next. ; ^ )

Before

 

nice! have you considered a front lip? feels like it needs a lil something up front to balance the look.

i really like the taillights...probably one of the first upgrades i would have made too.

 

Going with Tein coil-overs and drop this lil girl down about 2", front and rear adjustable arms to set the camber with a fresh set of Toyos this will greatly improve the ride .
U tube camber & toe : ^ )
Type R side skirts (like the ones that are one my 94) and the Type R rear bumper extensions, and the mud flaps are outta here.

 

Recondition front bumper by wet sanding and buffing, lets see what can be done with this paint.
It was a North Carolina car with dead bug guts, and if you know car finishes, well it ain't purddy. With 2500 wet paper and medium compound it looks 100% better!
Hard to see with this ghetto phone, but up close its a big difference.

Before



After


2 hours 1/4 of the bumper and 1 headlight.

 

Floor mats arrived this morning, and they turned out super.

 

Battery area clean up today. The tray was crusty, but came apart, luckly a tray was in my stash up in the attic. ; < )



aftera good clean up and a couple coats of truck bed liner looks like new and the battery tie down too.

 

Original battery tie down cleaned and coated.

 

Brighter bulbs for the low beams and yellow for the hi beams.

Ha ha now that i see this im getting rid of the oem bulb because they're too yellow and dim. And the new high beams are bright yellow.

 

everything is lookin good!
amazing how fresh carpets can make such a difference.

 

Hey eulogy
hows your fine Fit doing of yours?

 

hah...i had the same thought when i was installing my yellow fogs recently. i previously had white leds, but before those i had stock bulbs...and thought about how ugly the stock bulb color was...and here i am going even more yellow. lol .

cars good...ordered a tanabe exhaust to try out, should be on later this week sometime!

 

Hey do a utube vid of the new system. We'd like to hear that!
the tein coilovers for the Integra should be here next week! And hopefully i can get them on while on vacation! ;^)

found a supplier that had new hardware for the battery tray, bolts. Got them at lunchtime and after work installed the tray and cleaned up the fw with turtle wax,scratch out, great for hand polishing. Installed the battery, and hold down, looks shweet! The engine compartment is just looking better, basmiles here. Tires, clean up the rims, new suspension holy moly it'll be a different car.
