Nice car.

thansk!

it's definately a keeper after all the $ and time I put into her.

She's almost near completion. Last major thing (which won't happen for a while) is a paint job and some bodywork.

If/when I get a E it'll replace my current DD - 91 Integra.

Well,

My friends shop fixed some issues that my car had and did some mild tuning on her via a dyno and SAFC.

255 WHP and 244 FT/Lbs of torque @ 17 PSI.

All I can say is that she's a BEAST right now and I'm loving every second of it.

I'll post the dyno graph later when I get an electronic version of it.

blue-sun, what did you use to detail the red integra that is linked in your sig? I have a 93 accord that has a nice paint job, it doens't have hardly any scratches and no rust, but the paint just looks a little dull. What did you do to bring the integra back to life?

Well, I used some pretty aggressive stuff that really shouldn't be used by amatuers (read: not responsible is you mess up!)

I used a Porter Cable 7424 Dual Action Buffer
A wool Pad
Meguiars Diamond Cut

I did that 2 times on the entire car, then followed it up with:
Meguiars Red cutting pad
Meguiars Dual Action Cleaner & Polish

Then I topped it with Meguiars NXT Tech Wax

Can you tell I like the Meguiars pro stuff? LOL

head over to www.autopia.org for all your detailing ?'s
