Convertible conversion

[wobet]

So I have seen it done with many cars, only once on a integra. I have decided for sure, that when all my maintance is up to snuff, im doing this conversion. but should i do a full top or just above the doors like porsche?

The "just above the doors",as you put it, is called a targa top.
There are two Hondas that I know of off the top of my head that have that feature.
There is a reason the Integra isn't one of them.
Targa top or soft top Integra is face palm worthy.

You are correct.

Think about the chassis rigidity you'll lose by cutting the top off the car. Not to mention its not safe in a crash. I doubt you're going to re-engineer the chassis bracing to compensate for the missing roof...

 

[AcurInteg96]

yeah its not worth it.

ya i know its a de sol, its do able, i have no problem putting all the time into making a teg a convert, its not the fact the car wont be on the road for a while, its me making it one of a kind. all these people make there integras decked out jdm style and they all are sick, but there is less and less originality. i sure would do all the work to make it rigid enough to handle it.

can someone actually post a pic of a real integra with a convertable?

Well good luck then.
I hope you have access to a CNC machine, a welder, and a reciprocating saw.
I still think a convertible Teg is a stupid project.
