the engine was still good. has 200,000+ so it'll have to be rebuilt. it's amazing only the tranny blew.

Hey ami,

Why not go with the setup I have on my Si?

I got ex brakes, with integra upper control arms. Sits pefect, handling is optimal, braking is awsome. And tire wear has been amazing. Plus, everything is Honda OEM, no fuss of a camber kit.

Dude - that sounds like a great setup!!! So the Integra upper control arms on the front set the camber correctly if you drop the car? How far? I plan to only drop 1.5-1.75" and run probably 15" Si wheels (or similar)

Please explain the difference between our upper arms and the Integras? (sorry...I am a newbie to the suspensions and such...)

There is a '92 GSR at the junkyard now, and a 91 EX too!! I need to go grab those parts before they meet Mr. Crusher!! the GSR also has Tokico blue shocks...are those any good? How can I tell if it has been lowered?? The engine is out, (so the spring rate is prolly all messed for the front since the weight they normally hold isn't there)and the springs looked stock...do peeps like Tokico make shocks for stock ride height?? Judging by the rice factor of this car (ugly-ass olive green paint job and stock GSR wheels) that it was prolly lowered when it actually rolled on pavement.
