David's 95 DC4 BUILD [TONS OF PICS!]
 

Alright, so I've been meaning to make a build thread for ages. Now I'm just gonna give a little background to the Teg and all.

My name is David, I'm 18 and I own a 1995 Integra LS. I bought the car when I was 17 and In Highschool. Biggest purchase I have ever done with all my own cash. Saved for 4 months :). Now me and this car have gone through ALOT of ---- and good times. Yea yea I know its just a car but hell, the good times spent with this car will never be forgotten.

Now I bought the car in March 2009 with 260,xxxkms on it so its been through its fare share of owners and beat downs. I bought it with the intention of simply driving it and hell letting me have some fun. I wasn't really too big on the import scene and I knew the stuff went on , I was just never really interested too much. I bought the car and my buddy who has an EG told me to go to Toronto Civics for some parts and eventually this lead up to Toronto Integras, and them Team-Integra and then I really started to read about everything possible that can be done with our Tegs. I was HOOOOOKED. Unfortunatly for money's sakes nothing was done to the car for ages until the summer hit. The next little while will be pics showing the progress and whatnot.

Now, the car is Automatic, YEA YEA YEA I know. Its my daily driver and I'm driving it for fun and speed isn't really something im too keen on at the moment. Yea i'll get a 5 speed when I start to do some actual motor work but for now its all suspension and basicly cleaning up the teg from what it used to be.

Problems the car had when i bought it:
Paint & Body : Not in the greatest shape, a lot of clear coat pealing and the rear bumper sorta sagging
Trunk Shocks not working
Sunroof not opening
Leaking oil from VC gasket and Cam seal
LCA bushings pretty much gone
Sound system wiring done pretty shitty
Was in some need of some good ol' TLC.

And now on to the pics. This thread is really for some guys to get ideas or for people to give me suggestions and what not. We need more build threads on here guys, so :)put 'em up.


This is the DAY I bought the car.

Nice David.

where's you get the LED bulbs? i wanna redo my cluster in amber.

superbrightleds.com

you're gonna have to buy a minimum of $20's worth of bulbs for them to ship to Canada, so get some interior ones or center console bulbs or exterior.

THanks for the comments guys :)

There is a $25 merchandise minimum for orders shipped out of the USA.

There we go ^^^

I'm actually gonna do a second round of bulbs for the interior, so if anyone wants to do a group thing, I can hook it up

Car is looking good!

Thanks Guys :)

Paul, no probs man, ill link you up If I have anything I need some help on. I got my hands on a jack and jack stands and a bunch of tools. I need a torque wrench and then ill have the basics. But for now im good :)

And yeaaa, I have LOOOOOOTS of pics. I take too many LOOL, i wish I had a cam with me all the time to document random ----. Which is pretty much what this thread is gonna be about. theres nothing huge going on here, just me and the integra :)

oh man we gotta hook up a date for cayuga lapping just gotta get my head gasket and we good :) Vote yes to summer!!!!

That IS huge!! :werd:

Haha good stuff man, glad to see another integra on its way to awesomeness.

And I'm with you all on the waiting for spring, that makes the integra experience all that much better.

lol nice to see other peoples come along. I bought mine with lots of stuff done, i'm just doing some misc. stuff to get it running properly again, since it had a minor issue that got pretty big pretty fast! lol. And a shifting issue which I still need to figure out if its tranny or clutch (but i'm thinking more tranny) :(...

PS. i'm in for the lapping... WOOT WOOT, thats what i'm setting my car up for, and of course gotta have fun on the 1/4 mile too :)

Thanks alot guys. After this month I got a few body things that are gonna get fixed up and then some Rims & Tires. woooot. I got 2 choices in mind already just trying to decide which ones to go with.

great work man that dash looks crazy its something i gotta look into

i checked out the site with the bulbs im lost on which bulbs to look for

would you guys know which bulbs and how many there are in a DA dash

All the work you're doing and the time and money spent on it is really going to get great results. Looks really good...keep going, David. :) Have enjoyed the thread so far.

looking good man really it does.

there is alot of potential.

Thank you :)
Yea its getting to what my goal is. 2010 is gonna be a nice year for my Teg.

I like I like. I'm waiting for the summer to put a few things into my car aswell. It is a good thing you posted this link in your sig or I would have missed this somehow.

Ahhh, thanks man.

So far nothing has been really done to it, the fogs havent been put in yet cuse I was waiting to get my HID's for them, I picked them up yesterday. Something should be coming in the mail this week. nothing huge, but still nice . And then fog install next weekend. wooooot

So My car is turning into the 290,000 kms. And I decided to get her a little something. I picked up Skunk2 Magnetic oil and tranny plugs. I also have something that should hopefully be here Monday and also the fog lights to be installed today or tomorrow. Yaaay.

And to add a Skunk 2 Sticker to my collection. my other skunk 2 sticker is on my strut bar, looool. PS Spike, i want another TI sticker. I got tired of my "Sick Mad JDM angled TI sticker" on the passanger side, Looool






http://www.fileden.com/files/2006/8/...02-10_1422.jpg

nice. Your stickers look good like that too.

I think im going to get those bolts too. just for shits.

Ya yaaaaaa. Im going to the auto show today too. I should be there in like an hour. woooot

its boring

buying skunk2 bolts for drains are pointless. oem bolts have the same magnetic tip. but a nice new bolt is always good.

yea the oem have same thing. Im gonna get them just for the skunk2 sticker

rice tingz

From what I saw last time with my oil drain bolt , the head is half stripped and its on its way out. So meeeeh. i got a nice new Skunk 2 bolt. Also got this from the Autoshow from the Shinzo guys, as well as a Type R shirt. wooot, riceness for the DC.. Loool sorry Jess, I told you I was gonna get the 10 points one. I love it!.



http://www.fileden.com/files/2006/8/...0/DSCN6436.JPG

i got my boi to make me one... i </3 speedbumps sticker

I got it for 1goodyr

I like the 10 points for hitting someone. When ever my friend is driving me around he always jokes about how many points we would get for hitting someone hahahaha.

:nonono: :nonono: :mad:


hahaha nah im just kidding! :yeah:

Stickers = Rice lmfao
