So you bought a car that has next to no aftermarket support, don’t know shit about cars, and want to turn it into a fuckboi mobile...?


Go away.

I may be wrong here, but do 1st gens not have torsion bars up front instead of springs/struts?

Looking at a parts schematic, the shock absorber tube just goes straight in to the knuckle. Can't he just loosen the bolt tightening down the tube to the knuckle and physically pull down the tube to be lower? :rolf:

Torsion bars are adjustable, but only like 1-2 inches.

I was just pointing out that he wants coilovers and I’m pretty sure 1g’s have torsion bars in the front :rolf:

This guy is going to have a bad time trying to soup up a car that's nearly 30 years old...

That’s not even the problem, people trick out first gen civics

Nobody likes first gen integra’s tho :rolf:

First gen Civics at least had some aftermarket in it’s day, however small it is now. Just look at the old Jackson Racing cars.



The problem with 1G Integra’s is that the tiny aftermarket that exists for them is overshadowed by the DA and DC, which can be had for not much more than a 1G.


Every modded 1G has a ton of custom work done, and it’s still slow and handles like shit.

i am learning

lol im really stupid and yah i found out there is literally no aftermarket support i guess im leaving cosmetics stock oem and just upgrade engine ill maybe swap it out for a b16 or just keep it as a daily i guess and yes i did find out that there is no springs in front but there is front torsion bar suspension. and no this wont be a fuckboi mobile i dont plan on ricing this thing.... does anyone know where i can get a stock spoiler for my integra at least????

Just keep an eye out on eBay and Craigslist and one will pop up.

Could do some subtle stuff like wheels and go for a vintage jdm style

Just do a restore in this case. The aftermarket for this car is minimal. Just make this care be mint af
