Well, it was a tough choice between a civic hatch and this teg. I was originally planning on starting a civic HB project with a B-engine plus turbo. I wanted to start from scratch on it...... then I saw this 96 integra GSR. I completely changed my mind and fell in-love with this car. It already has some of the upgrades that I wanted. I think that it would still come out to be cheaper than what my previous plan was gonna be (civic HB B-series turbo). Here are the current mods:
-JDM B18C (ITR) with 30,000 miles
-JDM spec OBD2
-Stage 3 clutch
-Lightened flywheel
-B16A tranny with upgraded LSD
-Apex N1 cat-back with test pipe
-Spoon cam gears
-DC 4-1 header
-Genuine JDM Mugen front lip
-JDM corner lights
-16" Slips
-Nitto 450 (205/40)
-Skunk2 coilover (which I kind of dont like)
-Fluidyne radiator

It has no power steering but I really dont care about that. The car is too low for me and I plan to raise it up about an inch. It needs a lot of work but it's okay, since this will be my project car anyway. I do plan on turboing it...... I know about the high compression and I have plans for it. Overall, I think it was a "steal" for what I paid for which is $7800.

looks nice, but IMO the front lip needs to go, or add some side skirts to it, and a rear bumper valanche. looks dope :yes:

I do plan to add some subtle cosmetics. Side skirts are on the list. I love the Mugen front, so I cant let it go :D

well then the sideskirts should be on the list. i like that too front lip too, but it looks a bit like the GReddy front lip for the 94-95 Accord EX ;)

Thanks again everyone.

I know what u mean GT40. It's waayyyyy to low. I started driving it today and I scraped all over the place. I will raise it up as soon as I can. I just havent really had a chance between trying to get the car registered and work.

My civic is paid off and my monthly on this teg is not bad. I think I can get it paid off in less than a year as long as I dont eat and ignore the rest of my bills.... he he he he he he....
