Project "I heart Ol Skool" 91 G2 Love


Well for a little history on the car… It’s a Bone stock 91 Integra Ls I bought for my girl 3 years ago. It’s got 210k on it an still drives… burns oil an has a little crank play but all thats goin any way. Oh an I belive Im the second owner ladie we bought it from, bought it in 92 with 200 miles i belive. iv still got all the paper work.
I hate buying molested cars…

I need some opinions on the drivers door. Think it can be fixed or should I buy a door skin.

Carpet was destroyed from water leaking, any thoughts on a repair… i know the sun room drain is causing alot, but the passanger floor also get’s soaked… any thoughts??
Wad ya think B18b or B20??

She’s been my daily for the last 3 years, but she has been sittin since probley november beacuse she’s burning to much oil, needs a thrust bearing an i belive has a booster leak…

Here she is…

the badd!

All interior will be swapped out painted or dyed black

The potential heart…

Now I only have till july 12 to finish this car. Im moving to orlando for school and I have to have this car done.
I may not use that b16 cause i only have an ls trans and cant squeeze a trans in the budget…I’ll prob save it for my ej1, so instead im thinkin about using a B18b or B20 which one, not sure… what do you guys think.

DR20’s black with a purple lip… anybody got pics… wadda ya think?

Thoughts, advice and opinions welcome, thanx

Looks like the b16 block you have has been used as a turbo setup before. I would just do the whole b16 swap and worry about the trans later.

I had a B16 and ran an LS tranny, wasn’t that bad. Loved it for daily freeway driving and then again, I was also squeezing so longer gears helped…

Just do the B16 swap, then switch out the tranny if you’re not happy down the road…

What colour would you say that is, light blue or teal? What is the colour code in the driver’s door jamb?
Thanks.

For carpet replacement on my first teggy I used summit racing’s carpet kits. You have to do some cutting to make it fit but not a big deal. Try something like this:

They have other ones to match up to your interior also.

that interior color is beautiful. IMO, i’d leave it. so nice against the blue

  • The color i belive is jasper green an i love it, color code:BG 22M

  • Yea, good eye… the block has been in a boosted car… hence the chop job on the block.lol
    from what i was told and can see… the block’s def been to a machine shop after it was pulled, im assuming a hone im hoping it wasnt bored, and the cranks been machined… It will be back to the machine shop for inspection if i use it.

  • my plan if i do use it and money allows, is to use CTR pisons with a CTR intake cam for now and if money permits ITR valve springs all new seals and gaskets of course, new valve seals and guides, maybe have the head… gasket matched or ported an polished

  • I only have 5 months really to get it ready for paint and mechanicly perfect, running reliable regardless of HP for now

-The Black on tan’s not bad if its been really well kept, i would keep this interior but its just so nasty and just uhh… some of the platic, like the door panels… iv tried cleaning with alchohal and it’s still nasty dirty in the cracks etc. and my last G2 had black interior an i just loved it… but any suggestions on cleaning…

  • thanks on the links for the carpet and the water leaks. the leaks have this car smellin so badd
    summits carpet def looks better then the one off ebay.

good thing about your quarter panel mess is that it wont be hard to bang out from the inside and get back to somewhat smooth.
the door though, if its not too high up on the door you might be able to bang that out too.

Yea I actually pulled the interior panel out yesterday an started to push her out. poped out pretty nice.Ill post some pics after I get further in.
The door Im not sure about, Im gonna try my best… worse case Buy a door skin o a door, if i can find one…
So far iv got all the cabin interior pices painted black beside the pillars and Head liner. Ill get some pics up, its comin out great…
Ill be looking for Front and possibley rear seats…

Got a question because every machine shop want’s me to bring them the engine for a quote, but im on house arrest so its hard for me to get out…

  • whats average price to have a cyl. head cleaned hot tank etc. and valve stem seals replaced…

what is that color i have the same but cant find it out

Welcome. The carpet actually feels good between your toes too. lol makes you want to drive barefoot.

Nice.lol, few more pics…

Few things I noticed after pulling out the headliner…

This is the sunroof drain fron pass. side.

Let me know what you guys think as far as repair/ replacement.The sunroof glass is cracked an the way this looks I might just reamove the sunroof and have in shaved over…

This is a pic of were the hatch is bolted inside the car…

Oh I also pulled an plugged the rear wiper… used an ej1 firewall gromet…

Next step finish up painting the door panels, c-pillar and headliner… Then remove w/e left of this nasty tint

what for panit did u use on the interior peices looks kinda like the krylon flat black plastic paint

Can you guy’s see my pic’s? they were working fine for weeks, but all I see is an X even when i try and update…
