Integra Type R Restoration (Part 4)

Progress is being made. In this episode the fuel tank, K member, and lower control arms go in. I also wrap up some of the stuff on the back of the engine and install rigid collars. Just for fun, go check out the video of when I first got this car (linked below) and compare it to what it is now. I’m quite proud of the transformation of this iconic car.

I remember the time Eric the car guy had to break in to his own shop to get his tools out because I believe he was getting kicked out of his building. And all the times he had to jump a step in the floor when had to do engine swaps. Seeing him today brings back so many memories of working on my Honda 😅

[@macabo]

Breaks my heart to see the mighty ETCG crawling around on the floor like the rest of us. Hope you can find a new shop some day sir! Thanks for posting stuff like this again we missed ya.

[@FixingWithFriends]

at least it isn't icy and covered in ice and deer poop.I guess... But yes, it is a tragedy he had so much nonsense happen with moving shops. Hopefully, he is at least having a pleasant break.

[@davidreuter5260]

It's really good to see you back again working on Hondas. I remember ETCG before he got his Bendpack lift and had to crawl around on the garage floor like the rest of us home DIYers. I love how you take the car down to the minimum, take care of all of the rust, put on a protective coating and then start to rebuild with new or restored components. I dream about doing that to my vehicle, but for now it's only a dream! Your Integra Type R should serve you well for many years of pleasant driving. Stay dirty!

[@Kro_man_tx]

That opening montage was like a descent into madness. 😅

[@Swarm509]

Pretty average part of car restoration. At a certain point you just start cracking up!

[@pv2smurf]

"space madness" -Brian the camera guy

[@DQSpider]

I literally just got done rerunning the rear brake lines on my Integra too! Not quite as pretty as yours but they're holding fast and the brakes feel great. It's nice to see you did two "soft 90s" rather than a U bend too. Originally I wanted the bend a little tighter but I don't think the tubing will put up with it. I also found out that a little grease and dirt can sneak into your flaring tool and really make your day hellish 😵‍💫

[@TurboJoe304]

Can’t get over how good the under carriage looks with that grey por15

[@josephreisinger33]

And this is all so you can sleep at night that EVERY THING IS DONE. It's a shame nobody cares. But I care Eirik. You know what's telling? You really love this car.

[@g2theb584]

I miss my Integra GSR.....it was my first car. Seeing this Type R makes me envious.

[@dadtype2339]

....And if everything goes according to plan.... famous last words of all us mechanics lol, been there! Well, EC you make it look easy Brother, always great to see you in your Element....(Oh now I think of an Element Joke) You threw that entire assembly together like a kid on the floor with Legos! And it's nice to see camera man Brian back, looks like his work. You have NO idea, how happy I am, To see you work again EC!!! I see a transformation after the break. That's where the saying comes from, what does not kill you, makes you stronger, or the one I like, Sometimes you have to experience a little death to know how to live!

[@jvarsall]

6:07 Eric the Car Guy watching an Eric the Car Guy video to figure out how to put his Integra back together. 😁

[@Jafromobile]

Love seeing all these 90's import legends getting turned around right in the nick of time. Great job, man!

[@hllywd964]

We are the same age, impressive that you can still back crawl around under car!

[@yambo59]

LOVE the clean and paint work on the underbody and subframe as well, that underbody looks like it will never rust.

[@museinglis1979]

My daily dose of ASMR…the soothing sounds of working on vehicles! 😌

[@lotsaofdot]

I’m impressed with the smooth paint job you did, that looked . Not to mention your dedication to keeping this car going for a good long while, pretty awesome.

[@craigsawyer6453]

Replacing the steering rack, on the car, is no fun. Looks like out of the car not all that much better. Great to see these videos, they are helpful!

[@robbflynn4325]

Wish I was good at fixing things like Eric, but I guess that's why I will just keep hold of my 2004 Sequoia. It's ultra reliable, so you don't have to worry about anything other than basic maintenance. Gas mileage is poor, but I hardly go anywhere.

[@FixingWithFriends]

If you want to get good, get a car that breaks more. lol

[@AstrosElectronicsLab]

Is Brian Kast back? Cool!

[@cameramanbrian5440]

Yes!

[@ryan-uz1rw]

Camera man Brian is back? Nice!!

[@MelonTL_YH2]

Yes my favorite mechanic and his Type-R

[@NJGhost34]

Hey ETCG! Good to see you back. I missed my digital birthday cake in Feb 😂

[@carlbyington5185]

Yer a good man Eric !! Always have enjoyed the vids !!

[@photondebuger45]

Eric slowly going insane with lack of the tools that he had and space like we garage warriors do lol. I know that feeling lol.

[@life.is.to.short1414]

Good morning 🎉😅

[@ericthecarguy]

Morning

[@mikeharris92]

Great video, and encouraging to see you able to do this on the ground like the rest of us who don't have a lift. Hope you get a place with more space and lifts soon!

[@BenState]

thumbs up if ya want longer versions of ECG!!!

[@EvilGeniusGaming84]

I'll take any bit of content I can get when it comes to EricTheCarGuy. He is the only person that keeps it real and genuine on KZbin anymore. So many people can relate to the repairs he does, compared to others on KZbin buying half million dollar cars and rebuilding them 🤙🏽😉

[@JakeTheBear1]

Hey Erik! I'm late to the party! But I missed your long form videos! I always wonder how you've been doing!

[@Jsbs1991f]

I wish you were keeping this car. Because this car deserves to be owned by you. But you have your reasons to sell it. Just hope it goes to someone like you.

[@FixingWithFriends]

Yep, 100%.

[@rafaellizardo3842]

Eric you are an 🎨.

[@theANGRIERone]

Always great to see the behind the scenes stupidity that happens to me. Happy to see I'm not alone. Lol

[@michaelblacktree]

That car is looking minty! 👍

[@grilledepoxy8658]

I watch your vids to the end , keep going man

[@FixingWithFriends]

Why only watch half-way?

[@Solo413]

This is coming along great - you've put a ton of hard work in and I'm enjoying watching as always. Thanks for doing this project, ETCG!!

[@ateahh]

We miss you man

[@ryulee458]

OMG Eric you sounded like the joker you're losing your mind LOL😂😂😂😂

[@museinglis1979]

Eric, that old war torn 🔧 sweatshirt you’re wearing… You should sell it as merch! 😂 Just gather up all of your old shop/mechanic wear, put your brand on it (ETCG) and sell it to your fans! 😉 …just an idea!

[@jayjanyh2932]

Let's see you install the emissions charcoal can on the rear left.

[@mrphiscal]

ERIC YOU DOING IT RIGHT!!!!

[@jhuntosgarage]

Good job, my friend. Thanks for sharing.

[@Kro_man_tx]

Did you guys drop a Ren & Stimpy reference? SPACE MADNESS!! 😅😅

[@nataliadeavilapires2136]

Yay Eric is back!

[@spiridondimaris465]

Nice job Erick 👍

[@alimechs]

Good update keep it up the good work 👍👍👍

[@HiFiInsider]

enjoyed!

[@greggc.touftree5936]

Just put Red Line motor oil in it to keep it nice and smooth. Amsoil doesn't have a high enough phosphorus content for buttery smoothness.

[@konsum949]

Looks clean and neat!

[@spineblaZe]

Nice work!

[@isalmankhan1]

Eric I Love this car Bro😍😍😍

[@PeterHernandez-lg2eh]

$35,000 dollars for the Acura integra type r is fair deal. Good luck paz y salud. I'm retired lineman diyer drive a 98 Honda prelude and a 06 Subaru sti. Still troubleshooting a po302 on my subie pita

[@adam_sweeney]

Almost done...

[@JTL-DK]

You should rename your channel to Eric The Honda Guy

[@cermem]

do up that 51 chevy eric

[@Elmer_RedEagle]

I noticed you using a paint pen to mark some of the bolts, what brand do you use?

[@GleepGlop2]

I've never seen those washers where the subframe bolts up to the body, is that common for cars? Are they effectively washers to help make a snug fit or serve a different purpose?

[@BasedAndRedPilled1]

0:06 😂

[@williameau4455]

Hi Ericthecarguy kindly asking can Honda rd5 cylinder head fits Rd7 engine block? 🙏

[@WreckDiver99]

@1:47 so, what you're telling a feller is that a guy did a Craigslist Rebuild and I bet you lost the receipts when your wife did some cleaning around the house. Got it. LOL

[@kgthegreatone943]

I'm a xmen fan too.

[@djvariant88]

Quick Question? Who is helping you film? I know you used to do it all yourself.

[@brianbrown543]

Doing serious car work is like a game of chess. You always have to be thinking five moves ahead. Otherwise, you're pretty well screwed.

[@BessieMorrison]

Is Brian the camera guy back?

[@cameramanbrian5440]

Yes!

[@redtango75]

Eastwood, more flavors of paint than Absolut has flavors of vodka.

[@supersam1914]

Not easy doing all this on the floor . I’d be sore for days lol

[@Start_TheArt]

Why run a catch can on a n/a car?

[@n9wox]

In a previous video, he said the PVC hose is really small and is concerned about two much crankcase pressure.

[@cm1133]

How do you work on the floor and not cuss like a USMC drill instructor?

[@FixingWithFriends]

[@cm1133]
