I know some of us have our own build threads. I was lookin at the club integra tapatalk forum and they have a what did you purchase/do to your car. I've probably read about 30 differents things being done. It was pretty awesome. So people posted pics of the work they were doing or had done. Thought this might be a little fun to see how everyone is progressing. So ill start the show. Today i replaced my lower front control arms and found that i may need a hub assembly on the front driver side.  (depressed). Also i stalled a new cold air intake and I'm working right now on the front upper strut bar. Also I'm under the belief she has an oil leak. And i ordered the hub now waiting on that. She is shaking violently when i hit 55. Sent from my LG-L38C using proboards |

Oh yeah. Speaking of alternators is there a way tp rebuild thr alternator to be bigger. Or produce more power. If so would thst lead to having to change to a stronger battery. I'm asking in reference to a better quality sound system

Youtube is a great source for video uploads. As far as alternators go, what they do is take mechanical energy (pulley being turned by belt) and turn into electrical energy. They only serve a purpose to charge your vehicles battery and to operate electronics while its running. When the engine is off it runs solely on the batteries power. Depending on what kind of power you'd like to run, start with your power source, the batteries. Some people and police use two batteries, one for the vehicle systems and the other for electrical systems. After you decide your battery setup, you can then figure out what size/"strength" of an alternator you'll need. But remember, running a lot of electronics and power will cause your engine to work much harder to produce that power, and to be able to correctively charge it. What setup were you thinking of running?

I truthfully hadn't thought about it. I'm asking for future reference. Possibly pass that useful info to someone else. Lesson learned  Sent from my LG-L38C using proboards |

what kind of camber kit is it, there are generally a couple ways to adjust camber, lside mount ball joint, sliding top mount, or upper control arm spacers or adjusters

Just got back from vacation tuesday and was off wednesday so I did some work on the honda, new front lip installed, liscense plate bracket and removed the fog lights. I still have a new rear lip to install and I ordered new headlights and a new shifter linkage. I am trying to have it all cleaned up by showtime in a few weeks
