2001 Integra GSR Gets Upgraded (Timelapse)

I gave this car to my son earlier this year (2023). He wanted to do some upgrades so that he could autocross as well as daily drive the car. Below is a list of the work I did in the video along with parts links. I’m also including more detailed repair video links if you want to learn more about working on these cars.

Man, that "Sorry mom" moment 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@EngineeringExplained]

Love ya Eric!! The GSR's sweet! ❤

[@ericthecarguy]

Love you too Jason!

[@calholli]

@@ericthecarguy One of you guys need to tell me how to put a manual in my 2002 Acura MDX and still keep it AWD. lol.. thanks.

[@America1st69]

How's that Joe Biden working out for you?

[@Jame6999]

Eric is BACK?!!!!!! since 2009!

[@maxwellkerstens1140]

Good to have you back Eric! You and Eric O are by far my favorite guys to watch on this platform.

[@michaelblacktree]

I'm just glad to see a new ETCG video. Eric is one of the people who inspired me to make videos. 👍

[@markryl-kuchar2373]

Great to see your son happy with the upgraded gsr

[@rudy14240]

Happy to see you back, Eric. Stay dirty and have fun! ❤

[@bundysgarage]

I love how you are back to the basics. Working on a piece of cardboard on your back on the cold concrete, like the rest of us common folk. Good to see you back Eric!

[@ADUSN]

The 3rd gen Integra will forever be my favorite car of all time. Thanks for the vid, Eric, been watching for years

[@muadeeb]

Being able to see you work again brings a smile to my face. I know this isn't permanent or intended to be a regular weekly thing yet, but Welcome Back

[@DenHvideHund]

thumbs up....lets get that algorithm working for Eric

[@michakosior2361]

Starting friday afternoon right now in Poland, i never expected it will be so amazing - you are back! Have a nice time watching everyone:)

[@mlieser1230]

Good to see you back Eric. I'd like to see a more detailed video with the commentary. That limited slip diff will help a lot on the autocross course.

[@michaelblacktree]

I'm sure. And I agree about the commentary. Eric's persona is what makes his videos enjoyable.

[@ericthecarguy]

I'm also installing an LSD in the ITR. I had hoped to make a more detailed video then.

[@michaelblacktree]

Are you going to do some father-and-son autocross activities? IMO that would be cool.

[@firstnamelastname6216]

​@@ericthecarguy hell yeah!!! Those cars have a LOT of potential, as you know lol 😂 👍✌️

[@TheSynStalker]

Definitely would like to see this with commentary.

[@philipparker4597]

Welcome back Eric good to see you making videos again

[@jean-philippegrenier237]

Wow, you have a great garage at home! We never really seen that, that's awesome! I wish I had one like that!

[@SJGINC]

Eric gets back to his roots. When I first started watching you, about 10 years ago, you were working on cars with no lift. I bet it's now harder to get up than down. More videos, please.

[@GleepGlop2]

I for one would gladly watch you run your channel from your home garage! ITR and Element videos I'll watch all day!

[@egeg-nr4qs]

This video is like a high-speed walk down memory lane for me. Cant believe it's already been 25 years of wrenching on my Hondas. Thanks Eric!

[@nighthawkj30A4]

Love that music Fits so well to Acura 😎

[@EvilGeniusGaming84]

Ayyy an EricTheCarGuy Video! My favorite KZbinr 🤙🏽😉

[@jasonh4167]

Great quick video Eric! Untill next time buddy!

[@uglysteve1]

Good to see you back and moving so quickly.😊 Steve

[@ExtraFungus]

It's so good to see videos again, especially now that I'm actually a Honda owner. Somehow I found and watched all your content regardless of not being a Honda owner before the hiatus. I'm the proud owner of a way too nice 1996 Honda Odyssey.

[@garyryman4947]

Great to see you back!

[@MichaelHatfieldFlowers]

That’s awesome, can’t wait to hear the details but i sounds like it ran great and I gotta say, you’ve taught your son well, shifting gears like a champ!!

Smooth Jam

He's BAAACK. Yay :D

[@michaeld4349]

Yes commentary video pls, these vids are awesome, be sure to drive them at the end of each video as well!

[@stephendowney4930]

car is a dream

[@tylerbarrett6652]

Well Eric, thanks for the upload that filled us in on all that's been going on. I sure hope you find a solution to your shop dilemma soon as I find that I miss watching your videos. Lots of these mechanic content creators have made progress in creating a better space for themselves... and I love watching those videos too - shop search, decision, upgrades and maintenance... all that stuff until you open the doors for business. Very cool. I pray the future has really good things in store for you.

[@NemesisDestiny]

Love both the jazz and the B18 soundtracks!

[@somewhatofaprofessional7940]

After every GSR upgrade, you always take a trip to Mexico for testing 👌👌👌

[@sheerwillsurvival2064]

He’s back!!

[@AlexM-tx2vr]

Eric, I had forgot what interesting music you have on your videos. I am glad to see you are back!

[@theANGRIERone]

My old '97 GS-R was fun as hell. Used to give Fox bodies a scare on the streets back in '98. Lol

[@simonallsebrook777]

Hello thanks for all videos brill I'm for England you helped me so much

[@literatesavant]

I had two GS-Rs during the 2000s - the first was a black '95 that I only owned for three months before it was stolen and stripped of its motor. Total loss :( But it gave me the Integra bug. The second was a purple '98 that I had for about seven years. Had a lot of fun with that car, although when I got it the motor had been pretty thrashed, and I ended up having to replace it after a couple of years, as it kept burning valves. I then owned a green 2003 Element for 7 years. Your channel has always taken me back to those years when I was building up a lot of my car knowledge.

[@todmatthew5824]

Good day when Eric The Car Guy makes an appearance

[@mara-j8454]

I've watched very informative videos of yours Eric. Quick references when assistance needed for a repair. Thanks.

[@teddypark9832]

Welcome back!

[@chipmccoy5077]

Good to see you are back on YT. As always great video. Will be watching for the comments.

[@robc7323]

I had a girlfriend many years ago that had one of these... Fortunately, she did not like driving long distance so she was more than happy to let me drive it. I got to drive it from Florida to Ontario CA and back on multiple occasions. It was a blast to drive (although the suspension was a set up kind of tight). Her mom lived in Toronto and they had a neighbor a few doors down with the same car. It was stolen out of the driveway one night... glad the Integra was in the garage that night. Eric, you may want to bolt a block of wood under the accelerator pedal to keep your son out of trouble... he looks to be having a bit too much fun.

[@tomaskelly6507]

Just wanted to add my voice to the others saying... Welcome back Eric 🙂! Delighted you felt like posting the video even. Always love the content, best of luck with everything!

[@keith73z28]

Was just thinking of you and your channel! What a boost. Damn good to see you on here!

[@pauljennings4248]

Great to have you back.

[@chriskaye1997]

This is so awesome, I am so happy to see you releasing new content! =)

[@HARRUMPH-SAL]

Hey Eric, the fast-motion reminds me of every episode of the Munsters. Your work reminds me of what I do on my Boys’ 92, 99, & 2000 Camry’s.

[@danlargent3806]

Sweet, music reminds me of Gran Turismo

[@jaredbeach7885]

Slowly back in stride!

Nice! I just inherited a 92 DA manual coupe with only 131k on it.

i think your son is happy :-D That must of taken bloody ages, so much to do. He is really lucky to have you as dad. What you don't know Eric isn't worth knowing.

Great to see you. Hope all is well.

@@ericthecarguy Nothing much has happened, i caught covid and it affected the brain, very strange.. Well i am very strange :-D By the way, i've been two timing you with Eric O lol.

[@firstnamelastname6216]

Good luck over there in the UK , (15 min. cities, Agenda 2030, etc....) I pray for anyone affected by these proposed and thus so far authoritarian modes of existence. I'm in the U.S. and a lot of people have been awakened to what is very, very close to destroying our ENTIRE world. Sorry. I genuinely did not mean to rant, but I want/need to put my people on awareness. Because after all, "forewarned is fore-armed. 👍 ✌️

[@zx8401ztv]

@@firstnamelastname6216 hmm united nations grabbing control of our countrys, or worse than that, the vaigue information given says very little . Yep i dont like the way its going. Thank you for the heads up :-D

Commentary over these types of videos would be awesome in my opinion

With that soundtrack straight outta Ocean's Eleven, I expected to see George Clooney helping you look for the lost 10mm.
