well i thought id make a build thread and kind of formally introduce myself to the nyspeed community

my real name is brian, but i go by earl (middle name) im not new to the game really, been building honda’s since 99 when i had a 1995 honda civic with a gsr swap, since then ive owned about 40 honda/acuras and cant seem to keep a car for more than one season

last year i had a 1995 acura integra, had it fully sprayed grand prix white with a built b16 putting down 340whp on 15 psi with a t3/to4e 60 trim  
it started out at like this:

 ![http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/0214081606a.jpg](http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/0214081606a.jpg)

and i sold it like this:

then i got a type R (hype r)

 ![http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/newpics016.jpg](http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/newpics016.jpg)  
traded it away and now i have my current car  
 ![http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/DSCN0772.jpg](http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/DSCN0772.jpg)  
 ![http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/DSCN0774.jpg](http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll2/earldasquirrel/DSCN0774.jpg)

its a 84mm gsr  
portflow head  
crower vt, itr cams,  
gsr transmission, carbotech lsd, etc etc

just picked up a full race 35R kit for it, and it goes in for paint next weekend so look for updates soon

its the regular ramhorn, its technically the full race bottom mount manifold/kit with an upgraded precision intercooler

not a big fan of the top mounts on a street car as although you make great power the spool suffers

besides the fact that its fwd i have no problems with honda’s

i will get 33+mpg , have close to 500whp and the resale will barely drop if any at all

i see no problems with any of the above and idk too many makes/models that could boast the same for under 10,000
