I do too. Good job on the repainted lip.
Thank you man! Prep work was the key!

Looks good but don't you think that's too quick to be driving with the fresh paint. It should really have a good 48hrs to set.
Sprayed it early in the morning and it was fully dry by night, managed to wetsand it and everything. Paint is holding up fine. :thumbs up

Nice car. Love seeing a silver build thread. Cant wait to see more.
Build just started, theres a lot more to come. :) Thanks.

Not much of an update but I manage to score a Mugen Formula Shift knob, it came with the box, instruction on how to install and receipt from Japan where the owner got it when he was stationed over there. Condition 9/10

NRG short hub, and quick release are next so I can finally use my Momo steering wheel.

What QR you gonna go with? And what kind of momo wheel you got? Eventually I'm gonna save up for the blue momo montecarlo, and I'm gonna do the QR setup too. Just curious on how it's all gonna look though, so definitely post pics when you get the QR.
I'm afraid the short hub would be too short, but I'm also afraid that a normal one would put the wheel in my chest cause I sit kind close lol.

But you're teg is CLEAN bro. I dig the 98+ front end with the lip :) I want one now for my Gs-r lol

Right now i think im going to go with the NRG quick release, but havent really decided on what version yet. Well the 2.0, 2.5, and the 2.8 ones are the top choices. Really depends if the local car shop has a deal going on. (Not really picky about it). As far as the steering wheel, Im almost positive that its a mote carlo 350mm. not really sure though.

And yes, without the quick-release it was too close to the gauges, and the blinkers. Didnt like how it say so i put my stock steering wheel back on till i get the quick release.

Recent news.

Downloaded the MyCarfax app on my phone, and i searched up any recent history of my car.... It says that my Integra has 222xxx something miles according to Mycarfax and previous owner....

Any way I can actually check the car history instead of using this app?

I also found out that I have a GSR cluster on my Integra and I checked the Vin number and its an LS not a GSR. Looks like previous owner swapped the cluster with less mileage when he put on new bulbs on the cluster.

Really disappointed but theres nothing I can do but to just follow up on the maintenance and make sure that the car is running smooth even with 222xxx miles on the engine.

My LS has like 268xxx miles and still runs smooth as silk. Hopefully there is no damage already. If not, then with regular maintenance it'll go forever pretty much. I love the b18 :)
