alright, so i have some old pictures posted in the newbie section from the 1st day i got the car, and im making this thread as a build thread and also as a place to bounce ideas off of the experts among club integra. for starters here are 2 thoughts ive had-
1. a jrcs (problem being my car is unfortunately an automatic)
2. 15" mesh wheels (possibly painted yellow, my car is green)
ill post pics as soon as i have some nice new ones of my car, but until then what do you guys think of those 2 ideas?

I donno about the tires being yellow... It might look rice, and it might look sweet :what:

I dunno about the yellow meshes with green either... You could pull off like black, gunmetal, or bronze w/ green

haha, roadtest is on the 25th of august, but im feeling pretty confident.
as for the pics, im going to hopefully compound it and wax it tomorrow, so ill snap a few after that.
the idea for the yellow and green combo is from a lotus super 7 i saw recently. i think if i ere to do it id probably go through and also paint the "integra" on the front and back bumpers the same yellow, but im hesitant because as its been said, it may look rice or it may look sweet.

on the topic of the mesh's, i just found this:

should i go for it? idk how much these wheels go for usually. im a noob :p

Give 200 for the, also an auto with a SC would be a sick combo, I mean not much power compared to a similar turbo set up, but instant power down low with the auto long gears, youll suprise some people, or I would do nitrous with an auto also, just to have some fun

alright, i just hopefully got a job today, in a few weeks if hes still selling ill make an offer.
and yea, i think itd be a nice little kick up the ass in a daily driver. does an engine need much internal modification to handle the boost from a supercharger?
im personally not a big fan of nitrous. my shop class had a 3 day discussion about how its a cheap way to make power only accessible for a few seconds, and since then ive been more a fan of a properly built engine thats either na or supercharged.

Yeah I would offer 200 too since there are no tires, I think the color of the meshes all depend on where you go with your car. I went with black just bc I was going with black and silver throughout my car. If I was you I would go with either black meshes or bronze meshes.

Just a fair warning... meshes are an absolute pain to keep clean lol, I'm actually wanting to get some fat fives now and get rid of my meshes

so bronze meshs sound like a good idea, deff looking into that
and they are hard to keep clean? well, i think i may live with it, the car gets a weekly wash anyway so its not a tremendous deal.
