So my GF bought an Integra

Hey peeps.

I will start by saying I know next to nothing about Hondas. I mostly play with forced V8's :D

So I will be hassling ya's for as much info I can get.

The car in question is a 94 Integra GSi, 5 speed and completely stock. For now.....

So her shopping list includes (not in any order)

Alloy wheels
Stereo
Mild body kit.
Altezza lights
Sports steering wheel
Exhaust

I will be the 'sucker' who will be converting it from stock to modified.

Here is a front pic of the car and I look forward to chatting with you.

good choice with a honda.

looking forward to seeing what u guys do with it.

Welcome...

Just a couple tips,

There are no such things as "mild" body kits for the tegs, they all look ridiculous big and vulgar! lol
At most, jst get a lip kit for your/gf's car.
You may need to look over seas or on the Hondatech.com forums as there is nothing here in Aust, unless u looking second hand stuff.

Altezzas, unless its what you're both happy with, id say stay clear from em.
In my personal opinion, that look has come and gone...and is now quite distasteful.

Thanks for the info thus far.

We were looking at these:

In saying that, I don't follow this style of car so I could be a bit rusty with current mods. :P

^^^^ those one's look alright. Whereabouts can I get them from?

Agree with Q Ball, altezza's lights are shit. They even look shit on Altezza's (when they're stock taillights lol)

oem is best.

Have a look in the Integra appearance galley mate.

its her car guys, he's just trying to help her find parts :)
chicks dig the bling yo

either way although i really dislike altezza's the black housing is much nicer and less tacky than the normal chrome you get with lancers, good choice :thumbsup:

stereo wise teg's are pretty easy to bolt on 6.5" splits/coaxials, just take off the trim and find a place to shove the wires
steering wheel, i'd really recommend the dc2r wheel since you still have an airbag. safety first!

good thing is theres always suckers here who will buy your stock parts if you want to offload them :)

Check the above thread,
Enough tegs to rock ya boat for yrs haha

WELCOME! nice teg. love the dc2. make sure to post some pix wid d new modz, good luck!

Thanks guys.

Major service is on the cards first. Need to replace all servicable items. The car has no service history since '06!

Don't like Altezza lights in any shape or form (except OEM).

Welcome.

Hi guy's I'm Jo and this is my car, I love it and can't wait to make it personalised.

I am looking forward to being part of this forum and attending crusies etc.

Unfortunley I wont be able to attend the one this weekend but the VSS cruise I may be able to come to and Ill come over and introduce myself.

I have enjoyed looking through all the gallery photos, you guys have done fab things to your cars and I can't wait to do same to mine, and Im sure you will all be able to give your opinions on what I should do.

Agreed, OEM tail lights look best on the DC2/4 tegs :)
