THAT’S RIGHT, I’M AN INTEGRA OWNER AGAIN!
Welcome Oppo, to my New DD.
‘94 Integra LS. Ricer special.
Bought it for $3500, spent the extra $1000 from the Mazda on parts and such.
Previous owner bought it from the original owner, who kept ALL his receipts for work and parts. But the previous owner couldn’t have been more of your stereotypical Integra ricer owner. General douchebag, shitty work, cheap mods, etc.
So why did I buy it? 93,000 Miles. Fuel Economy.
What parts did he fuck with?
Cheap Coilover sleeves (Spec D) on blown shocks and struts
Cheap Cold Air Intake, not hydroshielded and ready to hydrolock the engine
Cheap Full exhaust, from full length header, to high-flow cats, to Fart can (Doesn’t sound too bad, but rattles on a heat shield)
Front Camber Kit (Skunk 2, finally a name brand) because he slammed that shit:
Corded both front tires, shredded the spare, one gold wheel with a backwards mounted dry-rotted tire.
Shitty installed Head unit and 12” kicker sub
plastidipped acura badges
and worst of all: Smoked weed in it. that took 6 hours of intense cleaning to get the smell out.
I bought bunches of parts for it, including the Rays G-games you see in the first image, new KYB shocks and struts, serpentine belts, adjusted the coilovers to acceptable height, just got it aligned, new tie rod ends, rack and pinion bellows, etc. Basically making it a fun, reliable daily driver.
If you want to see more info on it, go to my WheelWell page:

Glad to finally have a car again. And the Mustang will be embarking on the Hot Rod Power Tour along with my Dad’s ‘82 GT in a clever way to move the car from Minnesota to God’s Country, TEXAS.

What unique wrappers/lost belongings did you find in the integra?

The headlights and the wheels look fantastic.

Oh man, forgot to mention that. Two towels (ewww), lots of change, and blunt ash.

Factory headlights, but yeah very clean. I plan to do a XenonDepot LED kit in the future.

glad you saved a very clean teggy man!
there’s a bunch of stanced and fucked up ones at my school, all driven by shitheads. luckily; the GLI gives them a mouthful of dust and turbo soot any time they try to fuck with a real car!

Yeah, trying to save this one, just make it a clean daily. The guy I bought it from also had a stanced Mazda6 with a purposely rusted hood and cheap painted gold factory wheels *facepalm*

Ah, the angle makes them look like they have a light smoke. Did you ozone it to get the pot smell completely out?

I think also vanilla extract will also help to get rid of the dank smell.

STYLE YO.
only way to build a car is with quality parts. I get the intentional rust if done right (see: mighty car mods budget street cred) but I prefer my cars sleek

No, there aren’t many professional detailers in my town (college town) although I might try a dealer and see if they can do it.

Same. Coming from a rust belt state (Minnesota) it just looks like the cancer that plagued my Mazda3.

If you want some advice on maybe even doing it yourself, head on over to detailingadventures.tumblr.com and feel free to ask the question anonymously or if you have a blog, asking the question on how to get the pot smell out and you’ll get a direct reply back if you ask for a direct reply. it’s my buddy’s blog and he’s a mobile detailer in sugarland, TX. his blog also has extensive coverage on interior cleaning!

This guy was definitely a massive tool. The hour long drive home was not pleasant.
