I have every shade of Honda silver on this car. I thought it was gray at first. it's that darker silver that some integra came in. I was so happy when I got it together. Considered going wingless but decided not to.

Yeah this hatch matches better than the white so its not too bad. And I've been looking but I can't afford what these people are asking.

It was kinda dirty. What test should I perform?

When you're at a stop, does your pedal sink further after you've been holding it? I mean, pedal is held down, you are waiting for a light to change, and the pedal randomly sinks further. Ironically both mine and Rob's Master Cylinders just started to go at the same time. They're not cheap either.

I don't know all the symptoms, but what you are experiencing could be normal. The brake pedal feel does change when the rpms change (i.e. at a stop). Its due to the vacuum of the booster. Just like if you have your foot on the brake and you turn the car on the pedal sinks some.

No, pedal is consistent and there's no involuntary movement.

Installed my shifter bushings yesterday and was messing around with the exhaust trying to tuck it up in the bumper and it ended up vibrating and rattling too much so I droppednit down to the lower hanger. Anyways, while doing it, found I need to replace the two dust boots on the shifter base as they both tore.

Feels a lot better, shifting is more smoother. Although the linkage feels stiff sometimes, could be synchros maybe? It's better than it was with the old bushings and slave though. Much better. Also depends on how I drive. I tend not to push the clutch all the way in when I shift.

Replaced my brake pads on Saturday. Much better now. I believe I'm having uneven pad wear. My driver side pads both had even wear and less than probably an eighth of an inch left. My passenger side, however, didn't fare so well. The outer pad (closest to the wheel) had about an eighth. My inner pad looked like this.


It was hard to get my phone to focus on it, but there was almost no pad left at all. I am surprised this car stopped at all. ABS would kick on easily if I pressed too hard. Brand new pads catch nicely. I should really recycle my brake fluid. It's looking quite dirty. I also need to rebuild or get new calipers. My driver piston boot is torn and the piston has rusted.

I was out with some friends and decided to take a picture of our cars.


Also tried getting the sunset and it ended up getting blocked.


This was the fire we had going at my brothers party last night.

I got a little too close a few times, but I was drunk and was also rolling around in the grass.

When I came home this weekend, this is what was sitting in my house that my mom had bought me so I gave it a place.

I have finally settled on the plan for this car, and over the next couple years I am going to be working towards my goal as much as I can. I have a lot of what I want to do in my mind and hopefully will start saving up for it when I start making a little bit of money through school. It involves basically a complete makeover.

Basically this. Replicating the rare integra model.


Progress is basically at a halt now until I finish fixing up the little other things the car needs. What's left is my alignment (being taken care of next week), radiator support alignment, and maybe a valve adjustment. Hopefully can get that out of the way utilizing my school.

Sounds like a solid plan. Are you going to swap the engine too?
Yes eventually. I already have that planned out as well. All it's gonna take now is to save and gather the funds to do all the work. I'm gonna use my school services as much as I can to get most or done cheaply.
