Although my car is no where near a gutted, swapped and roll caged car, this is my pursuit of having a reliable, daily driver/track/auto-x car, that is comfortable and fun to drive. So here's some back story because I know some of you people who don't look at pictures like to read some substance. This is my first car, it was purchased with 49k and I am the second owner. I've gone through alot of set ups with this car, from wheels, to suspension set ups. This car has come a long way from stock, I have many companies to thank: SHU (JDM parts importer, feel free to contact me if you need any rare oem parts) Mishimoto for my Rad/cooling set up, and Buddy Club for my parts sponsorship. Anyway here's some throw back pictures of what my car used to be.

Current Sponsors:
Mishimoto Automotive (click for the direct link to their integra parts list!
Buddy Club USA (check out their current parts catalog, lots of Honda parts!)

Feel free to contact me if you guys need any parts from these companies. I can personally refer you to them.

Currently looks like this:

Track Status:

Here's back when i first got it.

First car set up:

Almost all of my modifications from my original set up were removed. I replaced my suspension 3 times trying out skunk 2 springs (bouncy) skunk 2 pro-c (horrible ride quality) to Buddy club n+ (great track handling and amazing daily driving comfort, best on the market well worth 900 dollars)

looks good. so what was the issue with the raptor HIDs? i got a pair a few weeks ago, havnt had any problems yet.

i brought them.. had them on for like 4 days and the drivers side ballast went and blew my fuse. sent the ballast back and got a new one. 7 days later same thing lol. takes like a week to ship back and forth and by time my second one blew i had to pay to ship them back to get repaired.. so i just didnt get new ones.. paid 20 dollars more and got 55w quality ones for ddmtuning. so far i really like them bright as hell and i can see more haha. def worth the extra 20 for a life time warrentee

 

[lta362]

nice car...like the lip. gonna look sweet with the moldings and side skirts painted

thanks, yeah im probably gonna be doing that within the month.. haha im gonna be doing alot of painting within the month.. mostlikely clearing a carbon hood, bumper and moldings and such hahaha.

 

[00acurals]

car looks pretty good man... i would keep it how it is it looks great.

 

[94michaelfoxLS]

lol ive been under the assumption that its a dc2? correct me if im wrong..

 

[lta362]

thanks, i just got a few stuff to do to the out side then im gonna start saving up for a swap or lsv hopefully

 

[94michaelfoxLS]

Yeah the dc2 is the GSR and ITR only. dc4 is LS/RS/GS/SE. If you look at your VIN it should say dc4.

 

[lta362]

No worries man . Car looks like it's off to a great start either way lol.

 

[lta362]

Searching online and i found this, acted fast on it and picked it up for 50 dollars! it isnt perfect of course but its fixable.. just some wet sanding and some clear coat or w.e ;]

the ugly:

think a good wetsand and new clear coat would do the trick?

oh and thanks to Random_Monkey i gave him my old stock exhaust for these:

gonna paint those, my moldings and my mirrors soon. once its hotter than 30 degrees out lol.
but what do you guys think about the hood? if i fix it up would it look cleaner with the cf hood or my mint stock one? lmk!

 

[lta362]

also got these lying around:

thinkin about putting them back on.. not quite sure haha. give me your opinion!

 

[BrickDiver]

take some 2000 grit wetsand paper and gently wetsand over the scratches and see if ya cant get em to come out. but i say CF all the way!

 

[00acurals]

cf always looks good on silver... that hood can deffently be fixed but the clear coat of cf is not paint its more of a gel.. so you might need a shop to reclear it.

 

[lta362]

so i decided against the cf hood... being a honda and a dd thats just a ls i dont need the weight reduction and the added attention lol. so i flipped the hood, and got a

Alarm!
Power Locks!
Headers!
Tints!
Amber Corners!

headers picked up for 50 dollars. work like a charm no leaks ;P

In my friends shop getting everything thrown in and installed^
Alarm is a secrettt.
actuators i got off my boy

I got Tints at a local shop for 150 great guy if anyone in nj needs tints i got a guy for you hit me up for details pics when its nice out! didnt go crazy went with 35%

other that that as of right now im nearing a end for my car... i picked it up a lil over half a year ago and for a 16/17 year old i think i did a good job.

Stuff to come: Paint! sideskirts,moldings mirrors!
Oem floor mats!
Possibly 00' rear

Spring time:
new falkens
New Struts- OPINIoNS oN A GOOD SET OF STURTS? does ti still have a strut sponsor?

 

[kc-db1]

Your car doesnt have struts, its equipped with shocks on all four corners. Anyway I'm diggin' my PIC's Apex's. You def. should look into them!
