Love the color, had one back in the day and still miss it.

Quarter windows are clean. In general, just so you know, as long as they arent destroyed you can prime the moldings and then rattle can them with trim black and they look brand new. The primer fills in a lot of the deterioration. I did a few when I was younger at the body shop.

BTW - what did your Integra end up running? Ever dyno it or anything? Looks like you got pretty nuts with it.

Thats a clean notch. I converted from the import crowd to LS fox body awhile ago, definitely a good decision to go RWD and Chevy powered. FWD and no torque gets tiring.

I used to know a bit about Honda's, what was your old setup? Sleeved B18C, K series, Dart block, etc? Those 4 cylinders can make some serious power, they just need a lot of boost and a lot of RPM.

Maybe I missed it, but whats the set up you are going with? I saw its a 5.3 and 476, is that a TH400 trans? Fuel system? I spotted an EFIsource Gold box, that is a good choice.

hey whats up. I hope it was a good decision lol only time will tell!
it was a sleeved b18c with a 72mm turbo yeah a lot like 60+ psi lol 11k+ rpm

yea its a stock stroke built 5.3 with 317 heads I did pick up a 400 from jw race transmissions with all the goodies. I think im going to get a magnafuel pump for it like a 4103 or something along those lines haven't figured out injectors yet 160s just don't know from whom. yeah I did get the gold box for now eventually I want to upgrade to the full haltech elite setup I just want it running so I didn't want to fork over that cash right now lol

cut the floor out to get ready to do the mini tubs and fuel cell and all that other fun stuff. when I took the rear bumper off I noticed that they only attached to the chute mount to a 6x6 plate welded to the rear tub. I was going to cut it off and but a new one but I think if I weld a 2x2 square tube in between the rear frame rails and tie the plate into the tube as well that should be more than enough support for the chute mount.



when I add the coil over bar im going to put a tube in from the downbars of the cage tied into that bar as well so its well supported
