My new Daily!

***Update***

The new center cap's came in yesterday. However, stupid me ordered 2.75" cap instead of the 2.25" caps. So, I'll be returning them next week. Today, got new lugnut's!

Finished up the usb power connector and radio aux input. Hacked the s**t out of the usb connector. Have to pick up some new plastic this weekend at the junkyard! Knew I should have used a dam file. also marked up around the aux with my channel locks. Lesson learned be careful next time. on a side note My droid razr will not power on with the 5v regulator. So I'll be removing or getting a 7v regulator this weekend as well.

SI tail lights installed! My plan's for this weekend fell through... On my way to work friday car started shaking like it had lost a wheel weight. Instead it turned out to be driver's inner tierod end. Friday night it was replaced. took it in for an alignment saturday morning. Also, changed the oil, & new pad's and rotor's up front.

Will work for ground control koni yellow coilover sleeve kit! lol Anyone have one laying around? Have cash!

Update. was in an accident Tuesday morning on my way to work. Lady came over the center line taking off the mirror and denting the door (where the mirror hit) Just got a quote from a honda dealer. $525.00 in damage. Looking for a complete Cypress green pearl driver's door!

All right, update time!

New mirror is installed. I couldn't find a color matching mirror at the junk yard... so, I went with the closest matching paint i could find @ the parts store.

New working sunroof installed. as well a new headliner board in perfect shape. removed the wing from the trunk. 99-00 rear bumper installed (paint dont match i know.) Also, picked up B18 block for future build... thanking turbo! Purchased a new Exedy clutch for $50 thanks amazon! Almost ready for 5 speed swap. I still need starter, shift linkage, & clutch master cylinder.

I feel like that's what wrong with my integra. I blew a tire the other night and now when I'm on the highway doing anything over 70, itll vibrate violently.

Jack the front of the car off the ground. Grab the wheel and try to move the tire from left to right. If it has play you have a bad inner or outter tie rod end. Top and bottom play is ball joints.

Just read through most of this. I got gsr black leather seats in my hatch and I think they look great. I definitely recommend them for daily driving.

been awhile since my last update... picture's speak louder than words!

Traded the fat five's for some Drag Dr-31's. They need tire's but are useable for the time being.

Also, I now have everything for the five speed swap. I'm starting on that next friday!
