You also have to watch out when you extract a tune from S300 and modify it and reload it. It will do the same thing sometimes. I extracted my tune so I could have it on my laptop and loaded it back up after making some changes. The car didn’t start. I checked everything and swapped out distributor parts trying to chase it down. Uploaded my old tune and car cranked right up. I had a friend who helped tune my ignition send me the tune from his laptop and everything was fine. Car is looking great man.
Thanks Man. That is very odd. Makes me a bit nervous, although I haven’t had any others issues with the S300.
Update: I finally got the car back on the road this weekend! The Legend brakes just barely fit the Sprint Hart wheels, even with 18mm spacers. Without spacers there is absolutely no way that they would fit. The calipers actually just barely kissed the wheel weight on the driver side by 1/16 or so. It felt great to take it for a ride with all the new mods and man I missed hitting boost. The suspension and brakes feel amazing. I didn’t even wash the car yet, but I cleaned up the bay and took a few shots. Still waiting on my rails to come in so that I can mount my Bride seat.
A pic of the Koso water gauge. I highly recommend it. The sensor is a direct thread into the stock OEM water sensor and readings are to the degree. I’m running between 183-187, it was always a mystery until now.
Found an older g2ic sticker in my stash.
Beautiful work… immaculate… but you never responded to my thread!Lol
Thanks Man! Appreciate it. Have since responded.
Car is looking great decks! Any initial impressions of the LSD and brakes? They make a big difference?
Thanks!
Absolutely! First of all, the new brake setup is awesome! A HUGE difference from my last setup, my expectations were exceeded with the Legend brakes. For the LSD, I haven’t been able to hit turns hard yet in the back roads but the first impression is that the car feels so much more smooth when I hit boost. No more torque steer or funny business. I have a feeling that I will really be raving about it when I take it to auto-x. The car just feels tight and responsive both for suspension and throttle, I’m very happy so far.
I actually was away on a trip until today to Iceland and the Netherlands, so I haven’t touched the car since early June. Hoping to put some more miles on it in the next few weeks.
Picked up a Sparco tow Strap. Going to see if I can figure out a way to mount it. Also, update on the seat rails…After weeks of waiting Buddy Club has notified the reseller that they are discontinuing the bracket/rails for the 90-93 Integra :argh: . This is bad news for DA owners because the Buddy club rails were the only relatively cheap way to have sliders on a side mount bucket (around $170 shipped). All other options run closer to $300+. Thankfully the reseller volunteered to put something together for me at the same cost since I have been waiting for months…pheww. Hopefully they will come in soon, I’ll keep everyone updated as I am very excited to mount the Bride seat. I also finally took the car out on the back roads and the highway and…woooweee this setup rocks. Between the LSD and Clutch it’s like a completely different car. I can tell you that my clutch was definitely slipping before, but apparently I didn’t fully understand how much. I was not feeling the full 300whp prior. To be honest it actually scared me a bit when I was getting on it, needless to say I’m very happy with the results.
I wanted to post these for general info. I picked up some toe plates to do my alignment. I have to say they really worked well and I would recommend them.
A pic I found on FB from a local meet a few weeks ago:
ready to see where you mount it
I like those toe plates. Where did you get them?
It’s always a pleasure to see progress of this car.
Amazing how much difference a solid clutch setup can help, huh?? lol

I agree! You’re really making me want spring for that LSD…
I bought these on ebay. You just have to find your own matching tape measures. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Race-Toe-In-Plates-/171258267127?pt=Race_Car_Parts&hash=item27dfc9c5f7&vxp=mtr

Thanks Man…it absolutely does
Not the cheapest mod, but totally worth it! Especially on a front wheel drive car.
Got the tow hook mounted up. A drill bit, grade 8 bolt/nut and about 20 minutes.
love it…looks great man
Needs bumper plugs…
But naturally I’m just being picky. Can’t really give any other criticisms.
Thanks! I like how it came out too.

I agree! I am actually looking for some for this bumper (92-93). If you know of anyone selling any, please let me know.
Where’d those come from? They look aftermarket…
As much as I want to hold out in hopes of finding a mint OEM set, it may be more realistic to spring for an aftermarket set, provided they have good fitment of course.

I got these form carid.com . Yeah, I got sick of waiting for a clean pair of OEM mats and I wanted something usable to complete that part of the interior. They are cut to match the OEM mats. I’ll post some pics, fitment is perfect.
Please do take pictures!
And, exactly which ones did you buy? They seem to offer a few different styles and types.
