To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

Well I did the trade, i like it, and will probably keep it as a Daily Driver.....Pictures in the bottom.



Some of you know about my 92 Integra....
JDM B16a
New Axles
Decent Paint
Clean car over all
I posted it for sale in the Autotrader for $3200 OBO actually looking for as low as $2500, but that is why I went higher because low balers are everywhere. It's been on the trader for only about 5 days. It's been on forums for about 3 months. No interest from the forums except for the Accord trade that didn't happen. I've received 2 calls from the Autotrader add.

The Offer is an 88 Hatch
93 B18
GSR tranny
New paint job
Integra seats steering wheel
Exhaust, local shop
coilovers, camber kit
some gold mesh rims, 16's
car looks good No AC.
This thing is pretty quick too.

Needs motor mounts.

I'm thinking the hatch is easier to sell, because it is faster and more people want them. But I don't know If I can get 2500 for a hatch like that. actually I've only invested $2000 on the integra. So even at $2000 total I'll be even. I think I can get at least that much for the hatch.

So what do you think........I'm thinking hatch with and HMT kit sounds good.....

Re: To trade or not to Trade....that is the question.......
 

Why not sell your car for 2700 and be ahead?

Re: To trade or not to Trade....that is the question.......
 

Rock the hatch!!

Re: To trade or not to Trade....that is the question.......
 

the hatch FTW

Re: To trade or not to Trade....that is the question.......
 

see if he will give yo a little cash on top :y

Re: To trade or not to Trade....that is the question.......
 

tell him to throw in some money cause your blue book is higher and you have mad jdm vtec

Re: To trade or not to Trade....that is the question.......
 

Just because the hatch would sell quicker. I'm buying a house that's why I will need the money first. Hell I would even sell the Integra for the $2000.


Or I could Rock the hatch for a while, that will keep the milleage down on both the Element and the WRX. WRX will soon be sold, I'm parting it out.

I think I will ask for some money of him also. If not then maybe not. I think I can get the money for the integra if I give it a couple of weeks on the trader. I can always buy a hatch later one and build it myself.

Damn it......Maybe the best thing to do is wait a couple of weeks if it doesn't sell then call the kid again.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....that is the question.......
 

So I did it, Got $300 back plus my sound system out of the integra, so that's another $150 or so I can get.

I like this thing a lot. My old hatch was just all beat up, this thing is nice and clean.

More pictures of inside and engine later today, if you care. I think I might keep this as a daily driver.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

Looks nice!

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

+1. With the high gas prices now, it should be a good daily driver.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

looks pretty good.. those wheels look :l offset looks all jacked.

but looks clean, id keep it. work o/t ;)

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

not a fan of the mesh, but nice hatch. Keep the ef's away from ricers :y
Pictures of the interior?

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

Yeah the rims are a little off, they look good, but just a little wider or I guess higher offset of what it's supposed to be. I'll take more pictures when I get home.

and yes balls out O/T coming soon to pay for other things.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

Just get the fenders rolled and you should be good. I like it. Maybe if the wheels were painted black with a lip polished it would look even better but it looks nice. What are those wheels from or they aftermarket?

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

Man I have no clue, got it last night around 7pm ish and then had to go out, so today I will jump on it a llittle better to check the details. They do look good, like they belond, old school, you know.

I know it needs a motor mount replaced, or well the HMT way, poly filled. Also the seat from the integra was put in there crooked, and it doesn't slide. I'm tall, 6'-2", so I need to fix that too. I can drive it, but not comfortably.

More pics later on today. I Promise :8 O0

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

why would you trade a nicer car w/ nicer motor for older and lesser car.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

???

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

who man. i got $350 shipped on some mugen cf48's that would make that thing 100x's better. i like mesh wheels but not with that gay color and offset. those are like minivan wheels or something

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

that shits pretty tight man!! ive always wanted a clean one of those with a b18c and some boost!!!! good luck with it!

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

Nice looking hatch. You did good.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

The integra had a few issues that I didn't want to deal with. Even the engine might need a rebuild.
Also I'm a sucker for hatches.
Remember I have another fast car, and maybe this hatch won't be with me for too long, who knows.

I'll take some more pictures in a few minutes.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

how come when they say "more pictures later", there is never any more pictures?

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

THAT"S BECAUSE YOU ARE WAY TOO IMPATIENT AND CAN'T WAIT FOR ME TO UPLOAD THEM :-* :-*

and looke what I found. It seems to me this car had an Turbo setup at some point. It's just making it easier for me. Now it wasn't this Engine, there's no fitting on the oil pan, or anything for the feed line. I'm thinking they blew a d16 and went with the B18b.

http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/6466/img0188ra9.jpg

It probably had a half radiator at some point, the hood was cut for clearance
http://img114.imageshack.us/img114/3179/img0189tz6.jpg
and the bumper was cut
http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/4093/img0194pm4.jpg

Close up on the rims, it has rear disc, and it's an STD. Someone did the swap. also has some slotted and cross drilled rotors.
http://img323.imageshack.us/img323/5734/img0192yp1.jpg

and how the offset looks, not really that bad.
http://img323.imageshack.us/img323/1940/img0191te9.jpg
still don't know if they are aftermarket or some factory rims for something.

The kid kept saying it was a 93 B18 with a 96 GSR tranny. That doesn't work out right. It is a b18b, so the engine is probably the 96. The stamping says PR4, and the exhaust manifold has two oxygen sensors 4 wires, so it must have been a newer engine.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures inside
 

I have no clue, I guess we can play.... Guess what this rim is? :-* :y

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

yea looks like old beemer meshies sprayed gold.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

I did a quick ebay search for 16" BMW rims and the mesh ones that came up don't have the rivets.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

lookin good!! im thinking old school enkie or bbs but im probably wrong

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

nice car. mexigold paint is awsome!

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

i wanna get one of those center consoles that connect the shift boot area to the center cd player console. Anyone know of where to get them?

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

You mean the CRX center console? any 88-91 CRX

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

no, theres a seperate piece you can buy, that conects the two. See his hatch console.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

Oh.... :1
i didn't even notice it the first time, I dont like the civic interiors, thats why i didnt look, but that thing makes a pretty big difference...I dont mind that at all

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

Ya bmw didnt make 4 lug 16's But sweet car man. :y

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

DA console fits better than CRX console. CRX is titled towards the driver, unless you're doing a whole dash swap it looks gay.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

not really a fan of that hatchback n i think its the rims

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

for sure. pm me when you want some wheels.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

I have one, but I want a lot for it. Not sure what a lot is, but it ain't cheap that's for sure.

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

Car looks great for what it cost you.That center console is hard to find aslong with rear disc swap already done is a real bonus.You should get them wheels polished and maybe paint the lip around them or something.Now get that thing boosted :y

Re: To trade or not to Trade....Trade DONE Pictures.....More Pics inside
 

that header is from a non obd jdm b16. I have one just like that. If it has the bracket that bolts onto the front of the block, check to see if it lines up properly. It should be a little higher than the bolt hole. lmao, they didnt even cut the metal off, they just bent it out of the way!!! I think you could sell this for about 2500 to the local ricer market with the mods it has. fab up a 3" stainless pipe for that intake so it looks better and she'll sell. :y I dont think I would have traded a nice (condition) DA for it though. Not straight up at least.
