Just picked up a 2001 Integra GSR. It's Milano Red with a carbon hood and black GSR wheels. Neuspeed springs and kyb adjustable shocks). Short ram intake and 2.5 inch cat-back exhaust. DC short shift kit and rear tie bar. I was also told that it has a chipped ecu. Came with new cross drilled/slotted rotors and pads for all four corners.

Car has like a billion rattles that Im tracking down one by one. Im assuming most of it has to be from the stiff suspension.

Came from the VW scene. Had a 2001 GTI VR6 and a 2000 Jetta 1.8t. Great cars but a little on the hefty side. Hope to enjoy the Integra as much if not more than those cars.

Pics are before i washed it.

Welcome to CI! My friends are into the VW scene. One of my buds has a 96 Jetta GLS (or GL) can't remember and the other has a 97 Jetta GLX with that VR6. And my friends dad has a mid 90s turboed Golf

Just picked up a 2001 Integra GSR. Don't have any pics yet but it's Milano Red with a carbon hood and black GSR wheels. Lowered with a very stiff spring/shock combo (i think they are neuspeed springs and kyb adjustable shocks). Short ram intake and 2.5 inch cat-back exhaust. I was also told that it has a chipped ecu. Came with new cross drilled/slotted rotors and pads for all four corners.

welcome to IC, sounds like you should check those rattles out depending on how bad it is, but your probably right about it being the suspension

well i fixed a bunch of rattles today so far. the hatch actuator was loose. found about 30 screws and bolts behind the trim in the trunk area. pulled about 10lbs of audio wire out. removed about $30 in change from everywhere and the passenger side front corner lens was a little loose. also adjusted the shocks to the softest setting.
