My 1993 GSR Semi Restore Thread: Stage 2

How she sits now

Some of you have followed my other thread, mainly freshening up the 20 year old GSR. Well that is basically completed. Now I want a little more driving fun. The B17 runs great but I can tell it is tired after 240k faithful miles. After I tear the block apart and have a machine shop make sure all is well, I will have them do some work to it. Goal is to do a “poor mans R”. My first child is due this Saturday so this will definitely be a slow part of restore/build process. I will save and collect parts then begin the build. some of you may ask me why on earth would I take out the B17? Well I want to preserve the B17 and also like driving somewhat spirited. I Dont want to risk ruining the b17 block. I would rather build a much more common motor and not worry if it goes. If I ever decide to sell, I would put the b17 back in. Stay Tuned!

Oh man,Saturday. I’m trying to find some pink cigars. Nice last pics from our last drive. I can see my AGP in the background.

Just build the poor man type r, throw it the db2, trade me for my db2 and it’s a win win my book.

haha, na. I just sold my Accord and got an older 00 CRV. Gonna hang on to it as long as I can! Everyone thinks I am crazy for selling the accord and not the GSR but they just don’t understand…

Now now Seth. We are two of the same lunatics. But,we’re sitting on bank! I need to see your CR-V and show you my 3.5RL grandpa mobile.

Are those Aerospeed wheels?? Have not seen those in a WHILE!!

Yep. Had one of my friends from back home in Miami ship them up here. Seth had them refinished. Old skool.

Nice…that’s 1 of 2 wheels I would only put on my car. Good find.
