1994 Integra LS

[traderj]

What's up people. Brand new to the site. Been located up here in CDA/Hayden for about 3 years now. It's cool, but it does seem that there isn't much of a car scene up here. Maybe that's just me. Glad to see there is a forum for just the NW though. So here is my car. A pretty much bone stock 1994 Integra LS. Only mods are a HKS DraggerII catback, hiflow cat, and a ebay SRI.

Quick about me. I'm currently attending NIC to get an AAS in computer information technology. I've been into car since way before a could drive. Right now I'm also contemplating purchasing a CRX as a project car since the teg is my only way to get to school. Kinda looking for something I can save but not too far deep that I'd be wasting my time.

Welcome to the site

Nice Integra. Any plans for it?

[traderj]

Way too many different ones to put down :razz:. Most have to do with engine work. That's why I'm thinking of getting a second car to mess around with at the moment. Can't really rip the engine out when I need the car to get around. Plus it would be my first time working on an engine and don't want to mess up my baby while I'm learning.

One thing I would love to do though is get her off those hubbed steelies. Was thinking some Buddy Club P-1 in hyper gold.

[Brian]

those would look good on there.

My first mods would be GSR or H22A engine swap, JDM front end, ITR lip kit, ITR spoiler, and ITR 5-lug conversion with ITR Champ White rims

Just my $.02

Yeah that's pretty much everything I've had on mind for a while. That or a possible b20vtec, k20, hell even considered boosting the LS after some engine work. But in the end I'm still a broke ass college student that can't afford to drop $5-6K+ at once.

[Brian]

being in college does suck the money right out of you

[traderj]

well don't know exactly were I should post this questions so I'll post it here. Does anyone know were I can get 2 creased dents pulled in CDA? That's the one thing that's bothering me. Can't stand driving around with dents.

[gotrice93]

Creased dents are very hard to get out. where are they at?

[traderj]

One is on the bottom of the driver door and is about 1 1/2 inches long and goes straight up and down. The other is right by the gas door and it about 2-3 inches long. The one by the gas door has also been made worse looking by my dad who decided to be mister body man and take a ball ping hammer to the opposite side of the panel.

Welcome to the site, there are quite a few members in the area. Seems there are more members in Eastern Washington/North Idaho on here then from Western Washington.

if its creased chances are its gonna take alot more then pulling them to get them out. if u come to a meet i will look at them and tell you what i think. we have alot of PDR (paintless dent removal) done in our shop

[traderj]

Bubba since your in body shop at NIC you should know the answer to this. Can I just bring my car in and pay to get it completely straightened out then fully resprayed? I ask because at RCC down in Cali I could and was wondering if it was the same here.

[gotrice93]

we do work on customer cars but we dont touch anything thats older then 10 years old and we don't do complete paint jobs. only because we arent experienced enough yet to beable to do a full and the reason we wont doing anything over 10 years is because parts are hard to come by for them, especially in good shape

[traderj]

Ok guess that's out then. Do you have any recommendations for the area? Thinking of getting it painted magnesium metallic off the RSX.

[gotrice93]

i have heard alot of good things about body by scotty.

[Milanored92hatch]

welcome nice and clean

[Backwoodz Tuner]

Sweet teg man. It looks show room clean. Don't look like it's ever been modded or molested by some half wit. To me i see a clean canvas to put the perfect painting on. And for the color, i'd leave it black, that's my opinion though. I just love the way a black Integra looks with dark ass tinted glass, lowered with a nice set of rims look on a late summer night under the street lights. They look mean. But yeah theres a lot of people here including myself that know a thing or ten bout tegs. A good place to start for a guy like you would be my site. There's a link in my signature. Lots of priceless info there. I too got a black 3rd gen teg! Welcome man welcome.http://www.nwtuner.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=14&pictureid=352

I do :) lol

[aust ek coupe]

nice integra clean as hell

[Backwoodz Tuner]

I wish I could say that,but I'm far from baller status

[slice636]

its all about the connections

[Backwoodz Tuner]

So, so very true. Where so far behind where I live, turboed B's are the extent, k swaped cars are pretty scarce

[traderj]

Thanks your the kind words. I bought the car a few years ago off an older military couple. It's has it's quarks but in all it was and still is a clean car.

Well seeing as it's about time for the snow tires to come off and I have the cash in hand. I think it's a prime time to get some rims. Can you guys recommend me some places to look.

[JDM As FUCK EK]

so freaking clean!!!!!:smile:

[traderj]

So I found a deal I couldn't pass up on team-integra. Four pretty clean blades with tires for $550 shipped to my door. I've always liked the look of the blades and I will also be able to keep a good amount of my rim budget for some coilovers. So expect a updated picture in the near future.

BTW with the new rims you might see me tagging along for a cruises soon.

[slice636]

bro if i were you build the LS trust me it will scoot well

[injencelica]

Nice and clean, can't wait to see what the new wheels look like on there...

[traderj]

Well I got my rims on Thursday. They had a little more damage to them then I was expecting. so I decided to refinish them before I even put them on. 2 1/2 days later I finally finished them up and I couldn't be happier.

Here it is.

I'll get some better pictures when it's nice out.

[Backwoodz Tuner]

Nice man. Looks good

[Brian]

looks good.

now you just need some center caps

[traderj]

Nice catch Brian. I actually have them but they have some kind of weird crap on them that I can't seem to get off. Kind of like a cross between hard water build up and glue. I've tried a few home cleaning agents with no effect. My next step would be something more harsh like a paint remover, but I'd end up loosing my A logo in the process.

[Backwoodz Tuner]

Yeah that white dried up milky lookin shit, I totally know what your talkin bout.I never figured out a way to clean em up either

that's when you buy some Honda emblems for your car and the rims
