Unusual sighting (well for me)
 
This might not be a big deal to most people but I'm from the "sticks" of Massachusetts. I'm talking good ole' American muscle wherever you look. Not that there's anything wrong with that but I'm one of the few import fanatics around this area. You've all seen pictures of my 2000 Turbo LS Integra that I did a Japanese Type R front conversion on.
Well, I was driving down the highway today headed to the autoparts store and I spotted another Integra. A Championship White Integra. I said to my brother in the car, look it's got an "R" wing on it. Then I noticed the wheels, and the missing sunroof. I knew this was an actual Type R. I pulled up behind it and we both made a right turn at a set of lights. Then he let me in front of him and as I passed I noticed his too had the front end converted!
Haha, I was in disbeleif at this point so I pulled over and he pulled over behind me. We both got out and just started shooting the ---- and checking out the Integra's. My god this thing was beautiful. It's the only actual Type R I've ever seen in person, and the only converted one in the area (besides mine) as well. I don't know, it was just cool to meet someone and see something so rare around here.

I think he meant it was a real Type R and had it converted to the Jdm ITR front end

I've only seen one real Type R in my life, and it was built/turbo :D Never saw one with an ITR front though.. I'd definitely love to see one of those.
