Decided to make a build Thread for my Car finally. I have gone through a TON of different parts. So This is How I bought it… 1996 Acura Integra Cypress Green Pearl Tan Cloth Interior Stock Motor With a Cold Air Intake, Short Shifter, 15" Rota Circuit 8 Rims, KYB Shocks and H&R Springs. ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/DSCN0257.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/DSCN0257.jpg) I soon bought a Magnaflow Exhaust… Which EVERYONE hated cuz it was louder than shit! Bought a set of Omni Power Coilovers and an Omni Power Camber kit Put a full system in the car. I soon started some engine trouble. Started burning more oil than gas… I decided to have mine bored out to ITR specs. New pistons, new rings etc. Long story short, Spun a Bearing due to lack of oil pressure… Bought a newer GS-R Transmission with an ITR LSD Then Bought a Built SIR-G Motor for a pretty good price. Stock JDM Bottom end Buddy Club Spec3 Cams and Cam gears Supertech Springs and retainers. Unfortunatly had to run it on a stock ECU Also bought myself some new rims and Tires 16" Gold Rota Boosts Got rid of that Aweful Magnaflow exhaust and Went with an APEXi World Sport2 NOIR ![http://a763.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/77/l_e0f476c3772651eb815787e5057eeeda.jpg](http://a763.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/77/l_e0f476c3772651eb815787e5057eeeda.jpg) ![http://a3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/107/l_2d0700e85e0e8642a08dec93f11c6c82.jpg](http://a3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/107/l_2d0700e85e0e8642a08dec93f11c6c82.jpg) ![http://a752.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/83/l_242ff22bba2442b6cb882fd70fe98b27.jpg](http://a752.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/83/l_242ff22bba2442b6cb882fd70fe98b27.jpg) ![http://a112.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/118/l_d5ea809c6a7bd41bc255bf2b060f4d3f.jpg](http://a112.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/118/l_d5ea809c6a7bd41bc255bf2b060f4d3f.jpg) Put her away for the Winter Early February we had some nice weather, so I took some pics with a few other Tegs ![http://a829.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/4/l_d359272981c4d124c0a08a9205e7c30c.jpg](http://a829.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/4/l_d359272981c4d124c0a08a9205e7c30c.jpg) ![http://a488.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/38/l_ab728e2d116ce2026c252162f536adaf.jpg](http://a488.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/38/l_ab728e2d116ce2026c252162f536adaf.jpg) ![http://a721.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/43/l_8745a01fb5b5bc3966ca46a0c50b2228.jpg](http://a721.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/43/l_8745a01fb5b5bc3966ca46a0c50b2228.jpg) Decided the Gold was a little too flashy for me. Sold the Rims, and started takin off some of the Gold Stickers. Im Starting to get it Ready for this year. Ive got some new parts ready to go in. Mishimoto Full Aluminum Radiator. And FAL Slim Fans Thanks to Code Blue ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/NewRadiator.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/NewRadiator.jpg) Also Sittin at home Ive got a set if Honda CBR1000 RR Throttle Bodys For my ITB Setup Got quite a bit of fab work to do with that still tho. As of Right now She sits on GS-R Blades Untill I get new rims which will hopefully be soon! I also lowered her another half an inch today. Also Got my Bike Rack on the roof. Pry gonna get flamed for that, but whatever. ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/2-1.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/2-1.jpg) ![http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/1.jpg](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y135/dc2nick/1.jpg) That is all for now. Ill be updating as I get new parts on. Hoping for a Tune this year as well To make the most out of those cams! ---

When you do ITBs make sure you calculate the optimum runner length and make it worth doing. [http://www.team-integra.net/sections/articles/showArticle.asp?ArticleID=484](http://www.team-integra.net/sections/articles/showArticle.asp?ArticleID=484) ---
