Here's a few pic of my car over the past year. Before it goes under the knife again for some more changes for 2014.
It is a 98 Integra LS Chassis.
Here's the link to my old thread:

Here's how I had it to start off 2013.
I know, what a f***ing mess.
Then one night I was driving down a back road and some asshole decided to back out of his drive way at about 25mph right into My 1/4 panel. I tried to avoid it by going on the opposite side of the road but it was around a corner so I really didn't see it coming. However if I didn't go on the opposite side the damage would have been much worse.
So the assholes insurance wanted to total the car. But after talking with the body shop and working out a deal. I was able to get them to write the damage estimate right under the value of insurance totaling the car and myself paying out of pocket for them to do all the body work and repaint the whole car while it was there. So insurance covered $2500 of it which paid for only the 1/4 panel replacement.
I decided I didn't want to spend all the time and money and have the car come out the same. So I bought a few little parts to change it up.
Jdm Front Non Hid Conversion
Then picked up these oem hid front headlights.
Edm Tails
All done with paint. They gave me the car back in this form because I still had to wire the front end.
The day they delivered it home, I got right to work as I was excited and wanted to see it done.
That night, coils lowered back down, wheels on, interior all back in, front end all wired up.
I then decided I needed to get rid of the ls and get something with a little more power in it. Not looking for it to be a race car. Just wanted a little pep. Figured with the new paint I didn't want the old engine I wanted something fresher. So I picked up a usdm b18c1 full oem rebuilt from a friend with 5k miles on it. He built it for his girlfriend and she daily drove the car so it was babied the whole time.
So I got to work.
Back on the road
Then I decided to clean up the bay a little bit by putting a intake to get rid of the ugly air box and a half size radiator.
decided to finally sack up and cut the new oem rear bumper for the rear fog
Then one day I noticed a small tiny puddle under the rear of my car. Sure enough my brake lines were rotting out and one was leaking. So time to pull it back in the garage and play mechanic again. Did a full brake tuck and ABS delete.
Before and after , all back together. While it was apart I found a set of black recaros. So I traded my reds for the blacks.
The lines from the master to the firewall are not the prettiest. I had the intentions of pulling the car back apart this winter (like I am) so I didn't want to waste a lot of time to have them 100% perfect knowing I was just going to throw them away.
Figured while I had it in the garage I might as well boost it.
and now it sits all motor again, and im gonna do a few changes for 2014.
I threw this thing together for a beater/daily while the teg is off the road.
