A guy I was seeing use to own an Integra LS, he loved it! It was the 3rd gen with the round headlights. Ran 13.9 on the bottle and the handling was great. Pretty nice interior too, it's reliable and parts are somewhat easy to find. If you thinking of doing any type of head swap/motor swaps you can do them pretty easily with Hondas. If this is a project car you are looking to get into I say go for it.

ls's are nice just make sure u read up before doing the dreaded ls/vtec head swap if anything ask Lshatch im pretty sure he had an ls/vtec in one of his hatchbacks and he knows his **** about honda motors

LS motors(B18B) love boost.

If you blow the motor, you can pick up a spare block in good condition for like 400 bucks.

Stock, they have some torque and are nice cars to drive. Don't even waste the time putting a vtec head on it though. Just go for boost.

get it and you can start calling it "teg".
i've heard that referring to an Integra as "teg" makes it hip and "dope".

If you get this "teg", please promise me that you will not be one of those people.
Those people meaning; Hondas with rims, tint, fart can, bunch of stickers, "slammed" and with the classic bondo/noclearcoat exterior.

There's nothing wrong with putting rims on a Honda.

Just make sure you can't/don't get them at Pep Boys.

Yea the car will be clean.LShatch....its not worth doing a head swap? My dads bitching about the turbo/supercharder/nitrous bit already. How much of a gain would you think with the vtec swap? My goal would be 200whp N/a if its possible.

LSHatch · 06-14-2005, 12:06 PM

You can build up an LSVTEC to hit 200whp n/a pretty easily.

The cheap set up, but proven that I would go with:

ITR pistons
B16 head
ITR/Skunk2 intake manifold
JDM DC 4-1 header
Some random cold air intake
ITR/CTR cams
P28 Ecu with a chip and VAFC

That should put you right around the 200whp mark, if not a little more.
