Hello guys and gals, I got my first car about 7 months ago and it a teg! I have a 1997 Integra RS 5 speed manual with 135k miles on it and picked it up for $2,200. Now its about 139k miles.
Here are some pictures of when i got the car.
I didn't take pictures of the other side of the car because the previous owner had two different types of rims on the car. The ones in the picture and one a stock rim without hub cap. :suprise:
The car came with no radio so i had to get one. I also picked up a type R knock of shift nob.
Not long after having the car. I decided to install and test out a strut bar in the rain and slid the car into a curb in my neighborhood. New driver for the loss, and being dumb. The driver side wheel was pushed back about 2 inches.
Here is the thread I made about it. http://www.clubintegra.com/board/showthread.php?t=58246
Luckily you guys helped me fix it.
It ended up being a bent lower control arm and steering knuckle. I picked both up at a junk yard and put them in with my dad.
Car back on the road.
Purchased an AEM short ram. Since its rainy season.
Picked up some gsr fat five rims to throw on my car.
Added security
Installed fog lights from ebay.
Yes i see my corner lights are messed up and i still cant figure it out.
The previous owner lowered the car incorrectly but cutting the back coils. Thats why you see the rear droop in all of the photos.
I purchased koni orange struts with ground control coilovers.
Sitting level now. Finally!!
I had purchased an HID kit for my car. 6k from ddm tuning. Within two days someone followed me home and stole them from my car. I woke up in the morning with my hood open and my lights gone. Thats all they touched.
I figured out how they got in, through the hood release lines in the fender well.
So i added a hood pin.
Got worried about security and added a quick release set up with a momo champion wheel.
Re-purchased the 6k 35 watt HID`s again from DDM tuning. The ballast is different and i dont think there as good.
I heard you guys like pictures so i gave you guys a bunch of them.
Well thats all the updates and mods i have done to my car until now. I was too lazy to make this earlier but i did update it on a blog that i have with my cousin and my friend. (It`s a little more detailed there.) They have a evo x gsr and an 09 raliart that you will see on the blog.
