this car was turboed, and featured on the first Hight Octane dvd. The new owner took the turbo, intercooler and i think stuck it on to another ride. The car was done up about 7years ago, xplains slight fade in blue. Still has forged internals tho. Planning to run down the forced induction route tho.

Welcome to HCF! So what do you have planned for it or are you pretty much sticking with the current theme?

when you say "red top conversion" are you talking about the type-R motor?

what kind of internals, was the compression dropped for boost? what other mods?

it would really benefit from a gutted interior and flat black paint. And i don't say that very often

well I guess it used to be a good car, but they did not take good care of it. What are you planning on doing to it?

as far as i know, as havnt looked at ecu yet....lol. short shift, heavy duty clutch. Havnt really had much time to rip it out and see or test compresion so i cant say about that, they were either i thnk mugen or JE forged. Double blade honda spoiler ready to be stuck on, dont have a pic for you now thoh. My plans are to turb it out agen, as for the paint and that for now...its going to stay like that for a while. As i have my Honda 25R that i want to strip out, slowly doing it up for a drag car.....15secs probly lol[:'(].

As for the redtop, i wasnt too sure if they were the type R motor, but yea its a civic engine red top.

Also model is 89 integra XSI
