Silva-type-s, check PM...I'm going out tonight to shoot some more pics.
A friend is coming over with a DB1, a 4 Door Integra from Naples and a Del-Sol too.


Here are a few pics of my friend's Lexus.






This one was pure luck.




Early dinner guys...
I'm off.

There is a thread that had sparked up some conversation.

The drop on Ronie's car is a perfect example of how to get rid of the 4x4 look. IMO, his drop is almost perfect when it comes to functionality. It makes the car look way better, handles better and at the same time, anyone can get around any city on that height, unless you live on the moon. No one lowers our cars because everyone does it but because of the tremendous difference it makes. I'm pretty sure that's why Ronie went ahead and lowered his car. I don't mean to digress from the topic and hopefully this will NOT get into a big discussion or one at all. /digression

Once again sir, Great ride and keep it clean (for us)

hey super nintendo boy (his avatar), i proably have about the same drop as hime if it is h&r spring (idk what his is), but it about 1.5" (front has sagged a little though)(can't put it on a lift and get the lift pads on the lift undeerneth the framerail up front) and yeah really hit scrapes on mine except for front lip going into driveways and stuff, like i can back over a curb stop(parking spot things) and geneally the exhaust (apexi brand)(sits kinda low too need new hangers) with just miss it and not scrape it, it will also go over speedbumps perfectly straight and i don't have to worry about it scraping

friesm2000, I'm not sure what point you are are trying to convey.
Regarding what ThreePointTwoTeeEl mentioned, sorry bro I know you wanted to "let sleeping dogs lie" but you "hit the nail right on the dead".
I don't want to change the functionally of the car dramatically. She is my daily driver which is use to chauffeur my 3 daughters around of which, all 3 wants it when they get old enough to drive.
Here in South Florida the roads are not that bad, one can drive around pretty low, my Integra have a 4" drop on Skunk2 sleeves and Koni Adjustable and Skunk 2 camber correction kit maxed out a +4 to get a proper street setup. I'm at -1.5 F and .5 R.(degrees). This car barely see sunlight though.
I'm a 41 year old man, I'm past the stage of crawling over speed bumps and railroad tracks in my Sporty 4 Door Luxury car, frankly it's embarrassing considering the standards our car is held to. (Top Notch!)
I respect the other members "methods of madness" but I don't find the need to become part of it. Plus, my Integra is my toy, the TL-S is "the music that calms the savage beast!"

Thanks for being so keen ThreePointTwoTeeEl

that i am proably about the same height (1.5"drop) as you and that i can get over most things that i need to, without having to take excessive measures (like going over speedbumps at an angle)
mine is also dd, but soon to be wife takes it twice a week
btw: english was not my best subject in school

missed some words/wrong words, HOPE THIS IS BETTER:
hey super nintendo boy (AS IN ThreePointTwoTeeEl)(his avatar [PICTURE UNDER HIS NAME]), i proably have about the same drop as RONIE [(I HAVE h&r springS)(idk what his is)(I'M ABOUT AN 1.5" LOWER THEN STOCK)(front has sagged a little though)(can't put it on a lift and get the lift pads on the lift undeerneth the framerail up front)] and yeah I DON'T really SCRAPE THINGS, mine REALLY ONLY SCRAPS ON THE front lip going into driveways and stuff,
AND i can back over a curb stop(parking spot things) and geneally NOT SCRAPE THE exhaust (apexi brand)(sits kinda low too need new hangers) I just miss it, it will also go over speedbumps perfectly straight (WHERE SOME PEOPLE GO OVER AT AN ANGLE) and IT DOES NOT scrapE

SO THE HEIGHT IS PERFECT FOR A DD BUT STILL GET THAT LOOK

Thanks jimmie...Just some S-Tech Springs, 2.5 Front and 1.7 rear.

So I sneaked out of the house Saturday night and took a few quick pics around the way.

Someone sent a private message asking about my Integra. I'm sorry but I lost your message so I couldn't reply in private.
To answer your question...in 1992 and 1993 (usdm only) the Acura Integra's were offered in a GS-R trim w/ a 1.7 liter DOHC VTEC engine. It is hypothesized that there were only 2500 produced for 1993 and even less for 1992. It was the 1st affordable VTEC car available in the US...unless you can include the NSX as affordable.
I'm off to take a shower...
Goodnight guys.
