no doubt I have an old Phoenix Gold Xenon 12", back when Phoenix was the good stuff. I'm clutching it to the death, but it's worn out now

 

I was blessed this year with unimaginable achievements and opportunities in all facets of my life; personal, work, and automotive - in which I'm thankful for. During the path, I met a lot of people that I'm grateful to have built new relationships with, and others that have gotten stronger.

I want to wish everyone a blessed and prosperous New Year. Be safe tonight, remember, don't drink and drive!

What's up for next year?!?!

 

I have a few ideas Drew, but we shall see if I go through with them. Audio for sure...I have all I need, just need to customize the trunk.

 

alittle late but, congrats on the feature man. can't wait to see what you've got planned next. i don't really visit the site too much anymore now that i've got an RX7 but i'll definitely keep an update on what you're doing with your G.



i've always loved the JDM integras. i had a 97 GS-R with mugen everything that i started the jdm front end conversion on. i ended up selling everything and moving on to another project before i even had a chance to drive it. i'd love to have one again as a daily.



keep up all the good work.

 

Super Clean integra !.always admire that front end
. my buddy just finished doing his and just past wknd i was able to help him do his 5lug with AP1 wheels. was super nice

 

I want to get a clean integra like that for a daily!!

 

Now-a-days I don't recommend a hooked up Honda as a daily driver, especially a DC2 with a JDM conversion. Unfortunately they are easy to still and often stolen.

 

^True Story.

especially out there in the westside.... its ridiculous how fast and easy those things get boosted even if you keep it in the garage... if someone knows where youre at and you have what they want then theres no stopping it!! like plucks plucking for CRACK!

 

why are they so desirable????

 

drew11 just look at the pic above and thats all the reason one needs to desire it!! those JDM conversions are the sickest.

 

yeah i mean it does look damn good but i'm just trying to see why they'd try to steal that over something more expensive

 

I think they're still easy to steal, unlike our Gs

thats my uninformed opinion though

 

I haven't updated this thread in a while, so here is some recent work that I've got done....there will be a lot more throughout the year, in which I will keep posted on here. In preparation for bigger plans, with the help of my buddy Randy we relocated the overflow tank behind the grill (not pictured) and installed this oil catch can. Obviously I need to keep within my JDM theme . A friend of mine who owns a CT9A had this ARC can for a while in which he never installed. He actually was selling it on ebay for a while. He ended up hooking me up at a GREAT price!



We ended up polishing the can, removing the stock fittings/inlets, and installing these 90degree -6 female to -6 hose AN fittings which screwed directly onto a -6 NPT fitting, adding a unique touch. We also ran the 2 stainless steel hoses through the underneath of the power steering tank.



In this picture you can see that we tapped into the CPV valve, installing a -6 male weld fitting and a 120 degree AN fitting to one of the hoses.



We organized the hoses with this polished billet aluminum clamp.



Here is a better view of the catch can along side the power steering tank. These pictures don't do it justice.



Full Engine Shot. You can also see that I've added an engine bay dress up kit from R1 Autoworks.

 

Chris,

New upgrades look awesome, AN hoses and fittings are the way to go.

Keep up all the great detail, Its the little mods that always add up.

Speaking of small details, I just added a polished stainless steel overflow line for the Weapon R coolant expansion tank.
