Haven't updated in a couple of days but I have started ordering a shit ton of parts. These are the parts I have ordered so far.

-LHD ITR carbon shifter plate
-carbon ashtray cover
-carbon cig light cover
-Ground control/Koni suspension
-Exedy OEM replacement clutch
-ACT streetlite flywheel
-Honda MTF
-Rear transmission mount
-OEM Climate control amber bulbs and rear defroster bulb
-Viper 5706 2-way car alarm
-OEM Integra blank key (lost my only other one and my current one is has a broken loop so I can't attach it to my keys)
and I am still waiting on my CT engineering intake kit but they are out of stock at the moment. :roll:

I'm still looking for an ITR trans, got a guy that is willing to sell me his 100k for 1k but I am going to look around first before I bite the dust :lol:

Also ordered some GC top hats, didn't realize that they don't come with bump stops and don't want to try and take my 168k mile OEM one off :roll:

Got my Viper 5706 installed two days ago and it was amazing, remote start and what not. I don't know what happened yesterday but the stupid parking lights stayed on at all times because of some fuses getting power or whatever so I had to take it back to the installers today. I disconnected my battery last night to prevent my battery from dying and now I can't reconnect it cause the stupid alarm will go off. God I hate electrical bullshit.
On the bright side, I'm buying the JDM ITR trans tomorrow and swapping it in next week :mrgreen:

Thanks guys, really looking forward on swapping the trans in by myself. I want to see how much of a difference will those slight gear ratio change make :lol:

Nah, I just like ITR parts. Don't want to make a clone. Isn't OEM fluids the best types of fluid?

not necessarily. Honda MTF was first made for cars without LSD. They didnt change anything when cars came with LSD. I would get the ford fluid that the Fiesta and Focus ST use. Thats a good street fluid that has LSD additives. I personally use Motul Competition FF.

Swapping in my JDM ITR transmission tomorrow and I am pretty pumped about it, hopefully I can finish it by tomorrow. Kind of blown that I got a 95-97 Spec trans so it has the 4.4 FD unlike the 98spec 4.7 FD.. I don't really know the difference over it because transmissions aren't my thing but I guess I'd rather keep my top speed instead of better acceleration(?) since I won't be tracking the car but it would still be pretty nice to have something unique :lol:

Finally finished after 2 days (7 hours) of work. New clutch feels amazing and so does the transmission. I'm kind of scared of shifting to fast because I feel like I will grind the gears.. My old transmission got me paranoid. The old clutch was almost about to go metal-to-metal and something fell off from the pressure plate so that might have caused the grinding. I will inspect it more tomorrow along with the transmission. :lol:
