Hey everyone! I just got my DC4 today!!

After having a horrible experience with a Mini Cooper S i gladly sold it for my current 01 DC4 and i love it so far!

I'm new to Integras in general but not to Honda i've owned a Pearl White BB6, BB AP1 and Taffeta White GD3 Fit

I only got the Mini as an impulse buy (mistake)

But some things i plan to do is maybe a JDM Front swap, maybe motor swap and Spoon everything

Are all the Spoon parts compatible with all the Integras?
Thanks and i look forward to getting to know a bunch of you and learning a lot while i'm here.
If there are any local meets i'd go
I'm located in Limerick, PA

Here's some pics of my old rides:

Current DC4 (Sorry these are from the dealership i'll take more pics when i get the time!

thanks guys
yeah i had an 03 mini cooper s supercharged version

had to replace the clutch/flywheel within the first 2 months i had it (1700 bucks!!)
brake booster went out 2nd day....wheel speed sensor broke, glove box broke
plus having to worry about the power steering fan that sits under the car that could potentially stop working and break the power steering pump (700 fix) and possibly catch on fire? no way...
had to fight with the dealership with all the problems it gave me
i was tired of having all the headaches with the car it wasn't worth it

yeah it's a BMW i know but check out the 2009 JD Power reliabilty list......you'll surprisingly find MINI at the very bottom. lol

i see it as.....if you go to a MINI forum and they have specified sections of the forum called First Gen Stock Problems/Issues and Second Gen Stock Problems/Issues.......it's a good idea to stay away lol.
of course i didn't find that out until after i bought the car.

oh well you live and learn
