Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and the Acura/Honda scene in general but not to the tuning scene. So I'd like to give some info about myself and introduce myself to everyone,
A little background; I had a 1991 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX and it threw a rod. I went to the junkyard and picked me up a little project for College. I'm 19 years old and attend UNOH in Lima, Ohio.
The car is a 1992 Acura Integra GS.
When I got the car it had no passenger seat, back seats, carpet, the front bumper was smashed in and the radiator was broken. The quarter panels had extreme rust and the trunk had holes in it where the car was de-labeled and a wing was removed. It also had no exhaust and the engine had 380,000 miles on it. Perfect right? It also had a red hood( car is blue ), a green fender and a green door.
Brand new everything, I got a passenger seat, carpet, back seats, a new fender and door and bondo'd the trunk. I also got a front bumper and ordered a brand new radiator from Acura. (The original plan was to stay stock)
All was good, my cousin told me he had a rebuilt B18A1 that had just a little over 16.000 miles on it. I paid for it and the Trans. As well as a clutch. I then got in the addictive habit of modding.
I had the heads ported & polished, intake manifold bored .2mm as well as the stock exhaust manifold, put on a DC Cat-Back exhaust, forged rods & pistons, titanium valve springs, MLS Head Gasket, ARP Head Studs, Wally 255 Fuel Pump, 440cc Injectors, new spark plugs, a full AEM Cold air intake with a K&N long cone filter, bought drilled & slotted rotors with custom fitted Evo3 Big Brakes, new tires, full pioneer sound system, did a balance shaft removal, and an AC Removal. Then went to my buddy and got everything tuned. I also powder coated my rims black and purple and put Spyder Halo Headlights on it.
So, that was over a time period of 3 weeks. Now it's time to hit the forums and prepare for boost. (Why I'm here)
My next advancement is going to be a S2K Gauge Cluster and Apexi Headers to get rid of the stock bored ones.
So, here the car and ill answer any questions anyone has. Thanks for reading! And idk why the images are sideways or if they even work. I'm on my iPhone lol. If you wanna see serious pictures ill send via email.
Oh and if you can't see the images, go to this link. It should be there. http://www.freeimagehosting.net/gxmsd
