SO.........
After a long time I finally have something I can drive and ENJOY!!!!
I started with a 1993 Nissan sentra CLASIC

After driving that around for a year and the g/f leaving me and taking all my shit including the car I decided I’m going to start a project...

What inspired me was my best friend Jon. he had a awesome and clean db1

We worked on his car for a wile, rims stereo upgrade rim, and finally, did a B16a1 swap with the s1 tranny and loved it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpNsYserhgM
But sometimes fun comes to an end...were in this case, his fuel line bursted shorted the pump and lit his car on fire

My Project. 1992 Acura Integra GS

When I got it, the car was a mess... http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u158/Robthepole/200702031012000.jpg

after driving it around for a wile and paying some stuff off, I started to save some for some little things to make it look a little more sexier something worked...others was just a waist of time and now it's off(like under glow)

And I think that looked to "rice" so I took them off"

Got some new rims, lowered my car with skunk 2 springs, some headlights and that's all I wanted to do when it comes to the outside.

ENGINE:

So I started off with a stock B18a1 with an YS1 tranny

First mod: a COOL AIR INTAKE!!!!! Not lots of power but it sounded cool and throttle response was better.

Then I painted my Valve cover.
http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u158/Robthepole/P070901247.jpg
Put in a DEL SOL SI dual core 1/2 rad and junked the a/c so my engine ended up looking like this.
http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u158/Robthepole/P070907269.jpg
Drove around for a while liking to but then I did some hmk on forced induction and it let me go TURBO
At first I thought this wasn’t going to be a hard task. run some pipes do some exhaust work this and that, more I got into it the more I realized I better take my time doing this. So after 6 months of working my car and making sure every time I installed a new part it would have to drive 6hr's b/c I always did it at my parent’s house. I ended up getting a turbo kit and installing it like SO.

Removed all the A/C stuff

Put in the intercooler ran all the piping, made a whole in the side of my car to run the piping. Installed a custom washer bottle, got my bov welded and some holes shut and ended up with my final product. I just have to clean up the engine bay, get a new battery, relocate it in the back, do some body work…

dont bash it up too much, it's still a work in progress, most of it was done at my dad's garage so most of it is home made, but w/e lol, but i think im doing allright for now considering iv had the car for one year. and no to much funds...

Inside.

I haven’t done too much, DEH 5900 poineer gauges boost and a/f LED swap and 2 10” subs type “S” with a Mono v12 alpine amp and a CAP

[frank2003]

[thepolishman]

so UPDATE!!!!!


So, i have new tranny, and clutch in:) been taken her easy, i fried my 3rd gear syncro, so i figured it was time for a new one lol, all installed car runs great pulls harder and runs great, i have it running at 7 PSI and works pretty good, still want more but i cant have it all anyways, there's another update now im in europe so i figured to see what eles is new :)

take care, happy cruseing!

[Gogogreen]

bump .... nice car seen you at luskville a few weekends ago....

[thepolishman]

yea, i ran shitty last time lol, i blew one of my c/p and then when i thought everything was fixed i was running like 4 psi... was pretty pissed and running crap times, turned out to be pluged cat, and another one of my c/p rubbers cracked that used to be my cool air intake. running on 17's wasnt the best idea also, wanna get out there one more time b4 season ends with stock tires and now that my turbo stuff is all figured out i think ill be doing alot better

UPDATE:

New injectors on order with chrome tuning which i hope will be good stuff., ill tell you how it runs now, been boosting at 7psi non stop since fixed all problems, i REALLY hope this time my car wont mess up like it did the other 2 times i went with my car :(
