Rick B. Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 i used to have those same rims. do you want to buy a gsr motor for that beast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 1. Drop 2. Color match front and rear bumpers 3. Put back on OEM Front Lip 4. Take off ACURA emblem on windshield other than that, nice start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick B. Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 ew, i didnt see the acura decal. yeah, remove that man. but if you want a good deal on a really fast motor, drive here to san diego. i have a modified gsr that you can buy. its an easy swap into your teg. real easy.

airjordan223 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 looks like a good start. paying only 500 for it makes it even better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catawalks Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 for some reason I think the black door handle is a nice little touch. and if i'm looking at that correctly you have the same sort of headlights that 90IntegraC1 had and I unfortunetly still have. Might wanna look into changing those out too. Other than that it seems like a nice ride. Wish my car had no dents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 looks like he just has clear corners, but i can't really tell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBirdSucks Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 that's a clean car. I like it a lot, but I have some suggestions: 1. color match the bumpers. I would leave the bumper moldings black though. 2. 1-piece headlights. call me a ricer, but I think those black housing Ebay 1-pieces would actually look good with your car. 3. remove the Acura windshield banner. 4. lower the car a couple inches. 5. get rid of those wheels and get something 16". I'd go with black wheels with a polished lip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EZNACHO Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 Like I said, everything you see there is exactly how I bought the car. THe 17" RIms came with the car, paint is I think factory, NO DENTS, the acura sticker on the front is going to come off when I get new windshield cause some butthead decided they would be nice and break it. I am going for 1 piece headlights but as far as the ENGINE goes I have one for it already the B20Z2 CRV Engine and I'm getting a V-tech head also for it all for a low price of $800 with MOUNTS and LABOR for swap. I want to lower it not sure to go with springs or coil overs though. I'm trying to buy this 94 TEG they are selling me maybe I might think about putting a new engine in that RBOLANDER so I'll be hitting you up with I decide to do that.

Rick B. Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 awesome stuff man. let me be the first to tell you in a non rude way so you arent flamed. its actually vtec, not vtech. just lookin out for ya. do you want a quick lower or do you actually want a full suspension? can go wrong with a gsr!!! ill probly have it in my hatch for awhile, then possibly turbo it. itll be fun. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 cr vtec is great, definately talk to Big Bird Sucks (Lance) who just posted in this thread, he had that in his Sol. Don't buy a '94, stick with the DA, it obviously needs work, but that's the fun part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZNACHO Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 Actually rbolander that's the thing I don't know much about MKNIKS but I want to drop it a little bit the thing is I want to take the best routes as far as the treatment goes. Like which one would be best for the car cosmetic wise and something that's not going to hurt the car much cause you know it has a heart also hahah As far as the engine goes GSR of course you can't go wrong with it CRVTEC is fun also though I've heard they can be monsterous!

EZNACHO Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 Actually the paint on the top is starting to turn pink and the paint on the bumpers *FRONT* AND *BACK* are starting to look pink this lady sold me the car she didn't know what she had but she had just bought a car and I told her to sell me this one and she figured it was old and what not so she didn't ask much for it... like I said $800 is what I am paying for the swap I already have the engine. The labor for your car was much more expensive since your car I don't think had a b series engine it in before and they had to put new mounts and everything rather in my car i'm just putting on replacement mounts because the ones on there are already worn. So the engine that I'm getting is just going to SLIDE RIGHT IN rather then having to change the location of the mounts. As far as how much I am going to pay I don't really have to lie about it I'm not a liar but it makes no sense to have to lie about something so little. A friend of mine is going to do it for me since he owns a shop and everything but I guess it's not what you know but who you know right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humphries Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 b20z2 isnt just a SLIDE right in kinda engine either. and i dont know that you ever change the position of the mounts when you swap an engine.. you replace them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would bet money you don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZNACHO Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 Dude no one is saying that anyone knows more then you about HONDAS like I said "I DON'T THINK" that it had a b series! To be honest with you I don't really mind knowing more or less than anyone I'm all ears when it comes to this stuff! If I learn something more power to me I'm not acting like I'm better then anyone! Just let me worry about building my car up and you worry about your DEL SOL that had a CRVTEC if you want to be all defensive about everything.

BigBirdSucks Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 good job answering the questions. instead of half-assing a swap, why don't you save up and do it the right way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EZNACHO Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 how did your b18a1 stock integra not come with a b series? I was talking about his DEL SOL I don't feel I'm half assing the swap cause this guy owes me lots of favors so he isn't charging me much! He's really good when it comes to swapping engines he just did 2 of my friends cars a CIVIC AND A DA like mine. he's a friend of the family's and that's all he does is swap engines and builds them up also. his experience is enough for me, I have seen him first hand do work on his car and other peoples cars I feel I can trust he will do a good job on my car also.
