Here Ya Go, Willimo!

Well, yep it's done. I finished it last night. Although I did screw some of it up, expect a new rsx body version in a few months. I learned plenty building this, like always clear coat your paints if you plan to wet sand them with 2kgrit, and 6 coats of turtle wax is always better than one. So, I guess you could say this was a back to basics for me, at least the last half of the build was anyway.

Mods:
Removed back seat
installed 10pt cage
rear strut bar
rhd dash
white gauges
short shifter
race seats

Lowered with tein style suspension paint
HB Revell civic wheels in gloss white-SPECIAL THANKS TO TONIO! YOU DA MAN!!
Ford racing blue paint
amber lenses
mugen front lip
custom lamps-Thanks JG for the tut
Black bonnet

1.8 red cam cover trimmed to see red sport cam gears
white JDM style plug wires
Turbo header
Tranny size large turbo
custom intercooler

So, here we are:




Can anyone help me with how to get the frost off the window?

Nice man!! The pictures arent very clear, but danm it still looks pretty nice!! very clean...keep it up man

These pics were taken with about 5 or so lights plus the flash. I find it works better than sun. The last pic is supposed to be dark to give the illusion of the real thing. Thanks for looking.

Look's good, Did you use super glue near the front window? If so that frost won't come off.

That's funny, cause I only used it to secure the exhaust. At that time the body wasn't even ready to be polished.

Oh yea, my camera sucks, I know.

What a great thing to come home from work to see. Just fantastic. I'd say this is your best model yet. I can't see any of the paint rubthroughs you talk about so much at all. I like the color, there is actually a Civic that I see at LSU pretty often that is a similar color. And the work on the car is great. It's been great to see you build model after model, each one gettin' better... If only we could all progress so well....

The haze on your windscreen is almost definately superglue induced. The stuff is like a leech, use too much anywhere and the fumes get everywhere (Interesting side note, detectives use cotton swabs dipped in superglue to lift fingerprints. The sort of wave the swab around where fingerprints may be, and the fumes adhere to the oily prints. They can then photograph, ink, tape or document the fingerprints however they like using the glue that stuck to the print. Neat, huh?) Anyway, they can be removed. Get some fingernail polish remover, but it must have acetone in it. Dip a swap in the acetone laden remover, and after squeezing off the excess, rub the cotton bud on the hazy part. The acetone will dissolve the glue, and the haze will disappear. Hooray!

Anyway, I love the Integra. Just fantastic. And everyone else can just bite me, but there's nothing cooler than a big smokey FWD burnout. WEEEE!!

[D[X]P]

yeah, looks very nice. too bad you got some snow on it

[86_SR5]

Yeah. Snow, in LA, who woulda thought?
Glad everyone liked it. Just wait till I get the newer one....heh heh

Also, I saw this green lowered civic on an underground street racing dvd do the baddest damn burnout, like smoke all throughout the car and when it started swaying smoke was coming out the hood, and I thought that was sooo cool.
