    Owned by Integra for like 6 months and I loved it. Only regret is that I wish I drove it more. Unfortunately it got stolen, but I’ll definitely owned multiple in life time. Probably gonna buy one early-mid next year

      ​@@IchiBeemoi taped an air tag inside the driver air vent of mine lol. but like deep-ish in it where you cant see it. black tape too so it wasnt visible at all. completely forgot about it til the new owner said he was getting a notification about an air tag in the car. if you also set it off so it would alarm it echo'd throughout the car so you couldnt find it. was my like 5th integra but im on MR2s right now

    Hi from Thailand. My ride is a DC2 maxed out NA setup. Tip from me is to seam weld everything head to toe. and a full cage. Chassis done, move onto suspension works. I use a Mugen setup with a MUGEN FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARM setup and Function 7 rear Lower Control arm. The Mugen front control arm was straight out of the race series my shop had in the back. Reduce as much weight as possible but keep it balanced with the same ratio front to rear. I use carbon fiber. Everything from Roof to fenders and hood and lips to bumpers and doors. Glass is heavy so lexan. Engine just went through TODA cams C2 set and valve trains and springs Pistons CP or Weisco. Over bore is great if your block is beefy. I go with 85 mm pistons. Transmission really made a difference with a 4.929 final ratio with the TYPE R gears. Sure you lose top speed, but acceleration is boosted in all gears. Brakes, are important so try Spoon Monoblocks up front and switch in the DC5 R rear calipers. Wheels go with some Mugen or Spoon for light weight or until they make Carbon rims in 16s. That's my ride. Can also check it out in Honda Tuning Feature a few years back or at my FB page Lertsiri Boonmee

    I was reminded again last weekend how much of a car guy and HondaHead I really am. I’ve owned my 94 GSR for 23 years and have put over 300k miles on it. Currently at 390k miles all original drivetrain. Took it to Classic Hondas on the Dragon, and Tail of the Dragon, over 1,200 miles, zero issues, tons of VTEC action, and nearly 35 mpg highway. It was my only car for 18 years. I have other cars now including a NB Miata, but damn I still love my GSR. One day it will get the full respray and restoration it deserves.

  • @MrGrentch

    The R's weren't seam welded, that's been repeated so often it became an 'internet fact', but nope. They did get thicker steel pressings in a couple of areas like the shock towers and extra spot welds in a few places and extra bracing.
    Upgrades? _The very first thing_ I would install is a limited slip diff. Totally transforms the car(and any other FWD).
    Second thing I would do is replace all your bushes. These cars have more than a botanical garden and after 20+ years they're almost certainly buggered. I would avoid poly in general and go OEM(or spoon/mugen if you've got deep pockets, or hardrace which are cheaper and very good), but especially in the rear, as Honda patented a design to passively increase toe in to stabilise the car under braking/cornering, which is one reason why they're so good in the twisties. Polys would take that away. Fresh bushes will also transform the car.
    Then I'd be looking at intakes/exhausts, (actual)cold air intakes. You can actually do a fairly good DIY job using the original air filter housing and some PVC pipe run down to the bumper area. I wouldn't go nuts on spring rates, 8kg in the front, 6kg in the rear sorta thing. That's for more daily driving/more like the original R setup, only more. Thicker anti roll(sway) bars make a difference too, either third party or used JDM ones if you can find some, JDM 98spec on are the thickest.
    Agree on the 15's. 16's are cool, but far fewer tyre choices and if your roads are any way crappy not a good bet. it's one reason why non JDM Integras stayed with 15's(very smooth roads in Japan). Though for some odd reason USDM(and Canada) R's got JDM Civic Type R wheels. Only go 16's if you intend running upgraded brake calipers like Spoon as 15's won't clear them.

    This integra experience is a slippery slope. I got a 5-speed GS a year and a half ago and next thing I know, I’ve got a spare donor integra for it and now I have a 3rd integra GSR that’s sucking up funds. Naturally aspirated with new suspension, intake, exhaust, clutch, flywheel, motor mounts, timing belt, water pump, AC, and power steering. Oh new seals across the board.
    Under the hood looks great, body looks like a hooptie 😂
    Very enjoyable driving experience.

    I knew we had something in common, the typeR is on my bucket car list. I would help someone kick a bucket for one…..nah. Yeah. Side note: exhaust is all about the resonators and type of materials used to make the piping. Heavy gauge tube, in stainless, with proper resonators and high flow cat is the business for a daily.
    Rods, bearings for rods and mains, buy thrust bearings too, springs and retainers for valves, and cams. NA school out.

    You could still modify or bolt on an auto Integra i/h/e weight reduction just keeping the exhaust diameter oem you could also install a transmission cooler and tune the car with an obd1 ECU you wont have drivers error during launch and it would be a quick little sleeler they have records of auto tegs hitting mid 14s-15 secs in the 1/4 with basic bolt ons

    Ok, so Im looking at buying one of these, and I want to get a LS trim because of the price, but I just don't know if I can make power with these engines. As of now, it would be a summer project car, and i would probably do cams, rockers, springs, pistons and piston rods, cylinder head and an improved oil pump, so i can get into those high rpms. Also probably do a turbo kit with it all, is this a vialble option? Or should I just try to find a GSR? Also, I can't find any cam kits for the SOCH B18B1 that comes in the LS trim acura integra.

    I want to modify my 94 Teggy so bad. It's completely OEM and immaculate inside and out. No rust, no dings, no tears. I still keep every inch of it polished and clean. even in the engine bay....but it's an LS non-vtec b18b1 with an auto trans. I feel it's just pointless to dump performance mods into an automatic. And it's 2024 so the economy is terrible which means budget is at an all-time low and used GSRs are going for 10-30 grand now. So trading up isn't going to happen, either. It feels hopeless. Just stuck with the lame one.
