thanks there is more to come
just not for a little while.
black friday's coming up and somebody wants a new tv and maybe a ps3
after that I am thinking
f7, asr with 23mm sway??? maybe
red wasn't my first choice for color, but I bought the car bone stock for a good deal so I dealt with it.
I am thinking maybe next year or so a full respray and I am not thinking red. I'd love to do midori green I love the color and how it flows with the body of the DC but we will see.
yeah forced upgrade is right. Somedays I look at my car and wish I would've just bought it back and done a super nice EK hatch, with the money from insurance I could've had a nice ek with a gsr swap, with all the suspension and maybe some nice seats.nice forced upgrade manlooking goood. i know for me this shit is addicting and before you know it you could have bought a new car,lool but its deffinately not the same and thank god for pay pal.
But I didnt so I only dream.
I like my car a lot but I get unmotivated when it seems like its a money pit. I was super exitied to get those itr parts and when I had to file the claim it really brought me down. but paypal refunded the money so I guess nobody really won, he just didnt get the money and I didnt get the parts.

Huh?
the only suspension Ive had is the stock suspension then stock struts on crappy coilovers
and I am super happy with the F&F they aren't perfect like koni/gc setup but the price I paid (530 i think)
I couldnt be happier.
Where did I say new suspension?

alright been awhile since I've updated so here we go
End of the year nothing but maintenance, timing belt/water pump etc...
January
Armrest delete (yet to be installed still up in Seattle should be here Tommie, have a friend bringing it down)
February
today I cleaned the heck out of my car and found some awesome carpet cleaner, so I pulled the seats and used it, and then re-installed everything.
Sorry for the delay on the updates
new wheels (the dr16's) should be going on in March, been waiting out the winter months.

Thank you thank you!
love? I love my car too, but I feel like I've fallin in love with it again.
That's kinda harsh, personally, these are seats I wanted from day 1 of owning my integra.
Second of all, wheels I cant justify spending over 1000 for, sure I would love a pair of TE37's or some regas, or even some rpf1's but I daily drive this car the drags will work just fine, and if you notice when I got the wheels, back in July of 2010, they where an awesome gift from my girlfriend who got me exactly what I wanted, I worked at a dead in retail job making min. wage and she got me something I couldn't afford, I love the way the new seats make me feel and I am going to love how the dr16's look when they are mounted.
so thanks for hating :thumbs up.
and who said I paid 1000??
Oh the seats are legit, they are super clean, I couldn't ask for anything better.
Will do I enjoy the little things that I do to my car, I clean it and it feels completely different.

Hmmm been awhile since I posted anything here, Nothing special how about a shitload of pics
Actually got my climate control to fully light up
Gotta love u-car washes
More recently
This shows how far its come it the 4yrs I have owned it
Borrowed some sick ass wheels from some dude with a single cam
Besides the rpf1s I got my new foglight switch in the mail, this one goes in the dash, because previously I had the usdm on in my armrest delete and was tired of the ghetto-ness.
So it came and I did no research on the wiring, was just hoping it was plug and play, but it wasn't the usdm switch has 3 wires and the jdm switch has 5 so I called up my friend who is really good with wiring and he helped figure out what wires went where and got it all done. In the end looks like this.
lite up
full dash (cruise control doesn't match)
and some more rpf1 shots
(stuck my body out the window doing about 40mph for this one)
and a very edited one, I really want to work on night shots, but decided I need to invest in some sort of light.
took this of my friends car
took this of my car
I need to give my car a wash then I will get more pics of the tails and whatnot.
and I love the background of this pic.
Picked up a shift bezel for a killer deal but it has a little scratch on the shift bezel and armrest is midly faded but I couldn't turn it down with my need to be an itr lol.
I like how I just upgraded my foglight switch because I didn't have an armrest and a week later I happen to pick one up.
:facepalm
I really want to get more pics of the uk tails but my car is soooo dirty I don't want them to look bad in the picture.
so
Heres one of my stock motor lol
aaannnnnnd
got some UK Tails
Oh and how about one of the UK tails
