Hi All,
new member from the UK, currently building my eg up from a rolling shell, originally car was an esi model 1.6 sohc vtec, came with bare minimum amount of parts on it. bought a mb6 brake swap for the car giving it 282mm front brakes and 262mm rears and 1" brake servo, which was fitted with full oem suspension, fitted headlights, rear lights, wheels, steering wheel, seat, swapped tailgate over all just to get the car rolling to get it home, this is how it sat.
fitted the clear rear outer lights
put my black painted headlights and amber corners, red engine bay dress up bits on
got a front bumper in same colour bit rough just hung on at the moment as needs painting at a later date
wheels had to go back to there owner as i was borrowing them, so picked up a set of original honda integra 96 spec 15" alloys
went to a local meet and picked up a bnib spoon rear view interior mirror
interior was completely missing when i bought it so started fitting parts in and sorting out extra wiring that was put in
integra type r rear seats in place
started on the interior loom routing too
so basically running a full black interior including cup holders and armrest, have the dash to go in once the looms in place and heaters built back up, integra type r rear seats, prelude tombstone front seats, retrimmed door cards
got a one piece oem spoiler this is how the cars currently sitting
cleaned up all the engine bay and cured some small rust spots and repainted in places
got my gearbox out as it was due a clean - integra s80 lsd box with 4.4 fd
after it cleaned up
engine wise, ive picked up a b18c6 block and sump from a uk type r integra, a b16b head from a ek9 civic type r complete with cams etc, integra ype r inlet manifold, thermal gasket, fuel rail, injectors, throttle body and intake pipe, oem engine mounts, stage 2 or 3 clutch kit and lightened flywheel, head has been skimmed, have new honda head gasket, head bolts, vtec solenoid gasket, spool valve gasket, cambelt, stem seals all to be fitted and a new radiator.
still working on rebuilding the head with the stem seals etc before it goes into the car.
have a selection of other parts ive gathered to go on eventually, have 96 spec integra driveshafts, poly bushed gear linkages, spoon duracon shift knob, dc2 dual bend oem shifter, fibreglass jdm style rear tailgate, with the jdm style rear inner lights that light up as side lights, 2.25" decat and cat back and a 2.25" oem manifold not sure if using this setup yet though, honda 'dohc' and 'vtec' stickers bnib, wings wset mugen rep front lip and various other bits and pieces to go together.
hoping to have the engine box in the car in next couple of months will start focusing on the suspension once the engines in place have a list of parts waiting to be ordered / sourced, thanks for reading comments and criticism welcome
