been lurkin on this AWESOME site for awhile now and i just bought me an 1994 integra..

so i thought id post some pics

one owner since 1993

i think i got a pretty good at $1900

i plan on dumpin it
header
intake


what other mods should i do?

anyone wanna buy these ugly ass wheels?! hahah

 

[rockadilla]

:welcome: it looks like a good buy to me :thumbs up u should get full ember corners and paint the side moldings or whatever its called white

And I personally would get rid of the wing... the only wing that I like is the type r

 

[Surferman]

Welcome. Your plans sounds good so far, just dont cheap out on performance parts.
How many miles you got on her?

 

[fat-casper]

the miles are kinda up there 191,xxx

but the previous owner was religious about maintenance so yeah it runs strong

i plan on takin that ugly wing off too..

as far as performance..

i want to put a header on but i also dont want no loud ass fart can...

i like subtle

anyone know of a good set up thats not super loud but sounds good?

anyways thanks for the input guys!

Apexi World Sport 2's are quiet. they sound nice, but like most quiet mufflers, there's restriction so its not the best for power. couple people in st louis have them on their cars and they have a nice quiet tone.

 

[JuniorDA[LS]]

dang 1900?!? prolly cuz its 191xxx miles. but oh well. i was reading this article yesterday that was about ppl who had cars over 1 million miles!! so if you take car of it, and do tha regular maintence you should be good maybe be one of those ppl wit 1 million miles on their car haha. umm magnaflows sound good for exhaust systems. also i would get a cold air intake

 

[fat-casper]

im going to look into those exhaust systems..thanks guys...yeah im hoping to be one of those people!!

if i have problems out of this motor ill just built one up for boost! id like to boost this one but im sure its got way too many miles.. ill have to do a leakdown test and see what it says

 

[BigMac88]

Welcome man!

Definitely do compression and leakdown tests and see how the motor is doing. You could rebuild that motor and have a nice boosted b1

 

[fat-casper]

i know theres a WIDE range of prices... but how much should a legit rebuild run me in parts?

im a lil mechanically inclined but mostly just older model american made stuff

but i think i could do a rebuild myself..any input is appreciated!

 

[BigMac88]

Well if you were to moderately boost I'd suggest forged pistons and rods rather than OE ones. Besides that you're looking at bearings, cam seals at least (I'd do as many seals as possible), water pump, timing belt, and anything else you guys can think of. All that stuff would run you 1k ish at least; depends how well you can find deals. If you could get a cheap b1 long block with relatively low miles, that might be a better option for you; you'd only have to worry about forged internals and new rings then.

 

[fat-casper]

alright ill look into into all of the prices for it.. ive always driven diesels so i just love that whistle!

Welcome

I see no rust on the body...WTF?? lol good buy

Ugly wing? That's the stock spoiler...i have it and like it

As for exhausts i look into the Apexi Noir...Basically the same as a Ws2 but in flat black color which helps in getting less unwanted attention from authority figures:roll:

I would also check the cam seal..i see oil on top of the tranny and on the around the cam seal itself..unless it dirty?

he said the oil was from the valve cover gasket so he had it replaced along with a new dizzy

 

[Anthony90]

Aah...Yea i noticed the Dizzy was the only clean part on the engine bay lol...
Either way you should clean it up a bit...just to make sure it's not leaking anymore.
