Hi, this is my first Honda. Had it 3 years now, it's a great car and I've replaced a few bits and pieces on it. Here are a few pictures:

Cool, did you stay white on the wheels or go for something different?

 

[Ely62]

i stayed with the white, might change them to silver, the same colour as standard for black integras

 

[Ely62]

Might be up for sale, time for a change maybe

Went to the garage for a check over the other week and found both lower front wishbones needed replacing as the bushes were very worn.
i understand now when people say it feels like a new car when the replace worn old bushes. I've changed Rta's and engine and torque mounts but replacing the wishbone ones has made a massive difference, it's wired how you get used to the old worn out ones, even with firm coilovers fitted.

looks good. Wheels done in white again or ?

 

[Ely62]

Yeah just stuck to white, they need another coat of paint to be honest. I'll probably do that after winter

I see, yeah I re-did my DC2's wheels with 3 coats of paint and 2 coats of lacquer. They are soooo shiny now! haha

Need more pics Ely, this is a great looking car. Nice to see you've kept it visually standard.

Head is back from engine builders complete with 16 new skunk2 valves ( slightly heavier than standard valves though) 3 angle cut valve seats, head skimmed, pressure tested, 16 new valve guides, nice and clean, no more carbon deposits.
