Smackinassvtec's ITR K20 swap build thread

I'm starting this thread #becauseracecar lol just kidding. I have a 2000 Integra Type R #1355. Salvage from theft, picked up as a shell, put all OEM parts back, and brought it back to life. I swapped a GSR motor from my last GSR into the ITR but I feel like that motor does not hold it down for an R. I want something more powerful and faster. I want something that will hold its name for the R. I want to do something different so I'm going K series. That's why I started this build thread. I'll have parts coming in and will post pictures through out my build. Enjoy.

There are few type R builds going on, it will never be boring.

What a wonderful platform to build on. Looking forward to your build!

Sub'd to see the goodies and the progress. Definitely an interesting build.

sub'd for sure

Alright so today as I wait for the parts to come in (hopefully in a week) I decided to prep the engine bay. Not going to do any hardcore wire tucks or anything, just simple.

Drilling out the spot welds to remove the passenger side bracket. We also smoothed out the area after removing the bracket.


It might of look difficult removing the bracket but it was pretty easy


We smoothed out the sides, cleaned it up and sprayed a glossy black coat to it. Too glossy but its decent.
