I love how everything is done like it would come from the factory. A/C, cruise and all. Even a spare tire! Mad respect!

[@KBynum]

Nice build, but there's one thing missing.....a clip of it being driven.

[@zackk5734]

Yea I was hopeing for the same thing

[@vincevegacustoms754]

Beside donuts you wont find much to look at,all they are good for after is drag racing

[@mynameisesteves]

@@vincevegacustoms754 it's mid engine, I bet it can be much more fun and also faster arround the track than most fwd cars.

[@jacobitosuperstar]

@@mynameisesteves not really, if you look at the time attack cars, many of them are FWD or AWD. RWD is great because is fun, the speed and tracktion loss problems are now a thing of the past.

[@tonycoppotelli8946]

I can't think of a project that is more difficult than this build. Mad respect..

[@brennancrossman5590]

Have to be able to visualize it. Then, in my case, I have to turn it into a beautiful, desirable work of art. Not just a...another hair-brained scheme and somehow paint that picture for my Lady.A saint she is, the patience of a saint! 😘 and she won't even be reading this! A three-part garage and a two Bay detached for my "projects" from a '54 Harley to a DeLorean with an Olds 455 out of a '72 toranado that was a similar project to this in ways.

[@quadzilla60]

Tony Coppotelli did u use autocad

[@99benjohns99]

this is a cool build but there is a DC2 Integra with a rear mounted NSX V6

[@HashCracker]

It looks like a very difficult build... I cannot understand why it wasnt built with a big turbo, or at least built to have room for one at least... blows my mind.. I mean that light car RWD with a boosted h22 mounted midships would have crazy high performance on a track, a strip or the street...

[@rodgersb1248]

Johnzy is it rwd? Very pointless if it's rear engine and fwd.

[@AaronUnknownPerformance]

That is one of the best rear mounted engine conversions ive ever seen! Much respect

[@ellobo8593]

Speechless on the build details. Looks 100% OEM....

[@komix7556]

El Lobo oem?

[@propaneandpropaneaccessori3446]

If they made integrals rwd from the factory that would have been awesome, kind of like Toyota's supra, Acura would have had a cool rwd coupe

[@boobam3648]

i love integrals

[@thecanucklehead3034]

Propane and propane accessories nsx

[@aeropestryrz8502]

Very True.

[@haloreach7]

The fabrication behind this is amazing

[@inspired6388]

I'm speechless all that hard work paid off . I have never seen a project so neat and organized. This is what you wanted. Great job 🚗💤

[@NotoriousZNT]

This is amazing, well done sir.

[@a.j.swierzbinski6225]

Znt This is like the NSX having a little brother with this build

[@kentmocc]

I remember watching this build from 13 years ago on Team-Integra!

[@slamrahovart9024]

This is incredible! It gives me hope! For some reason when ever I see a 2005ish Celica i imagine it to be a mid/rear engine car. Have always wanted to build mide engine Celica, and this is proof with enough patience, dedication, and brain, anything can be built!!!!

[@JonathanRyan369]

Beautifully done.., as if it was the way it was supposed to be built from the factory. Can't say enough about it.., just beautiful..

[@toddmediumwellingtoniii478]

wow!!! this is truly an amazing build if not the best!!!!

[@sevpha1259]

Who the hell is disliking this? Even if you're not a fan of the car or setup, the work put into this is amazing. It took time dedication and mad skills. 76 people right now can't appreciate hard work. *smh*

[@boobam3648]

maybe those people can't appreciate the terrible music, zero explanation, and nothing but photos. maybe those people are let down for what could have been amazing. no one thinks the build and craftsmanship sucks, i promise you that. do you want to be facebook friends with me?

[@ronnieyoung8549]

@@boobam3648 I'm late but you sound like a dick. Than again My internet won't load the stupid video

[@dw6015]

As a man who body dropped his own blazer and fitted IRS from a vette into the rear, I will say the follow through and the level of detail on this is the most remarkable roo me. My blazer isn't finished and I started it in 2002.

[@AndroidDB8]

This is 10+ years old. This Integra competed in Sport Compact Car's Ultimate Street Car Challenge years ago. I probably still have the issue if I can dig it out the box. Old news, but it was definitely an epic build back in the day!

[@porschetigersince2006]

That's wild, Much respect to the person(s) involved in this build. If I were to ever do anything like this I'd probably go with a FR layout and an S85 swap.

[@sammysam9560]

got mad skills. any company would be happy to hire them with no problems.

[@-God-Loves-Me-]

I love Integras... The LS model, GSR, and the Type R... Great project!! I must say, I was waiting for a video at the end...

[@phoenixphasisryan5658]

Awesome, i love this Acura. Nice to see the blood, sweat & tears it took to complete this. Vary nice

[@phunkeelove1]

truly an incredible build. much respect

[@thegergster]

One of the best builds ever. Finally it’s in a slide show haha

[@jinthao]

This car was built back in the early 2000s. It was feature in superstreet magazine

[@QuadDoc]

Amazing craftsmanship! I’ve always wanted to do this before I had ever heard of anyone doing it! This is like a kid’s dream coming to fruition!! Thank you for sharing!! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@pauleskridge7209]

You must be in some sort of mechanical engineering to know how to do all this stuff you did in this build. Very nice!

[@KarlandKristy]

Dude I just want to compliment you on the awesomeness of this and on your awesomeness for taking all of these pictures and showing each freaking step. I work at a body shop and I've done mechanics my whole life and I have never seen anything the school and this much attention to detail. You rock dude

[@Galottiful]

Do a review and test drive of this!!!! You will get mad views

[@kshepthedrummer]

Koi. If I remember correctly, the builder sold the car and it ended up going to some collector guy that put it in storage or something. This was built years ago. I remember following the build thread on (I think) hondatech.com

[@billyrubina]

Yes kshep. U r correct. He used a 4g prelude front for the rear of the car. I think the car was in a magazine too.

[@psavel274]

Digging the aero stuff- splitter, undertrays, diffuser, etc. Those NACA ducts look awesome and I love how you did the rear firewall/ engine cover. Great build, and no more shitty FWD torque steer. Lol. Nice work.

[@killermed95]

Exactly what Honda should have done from the start! You are an awesome builder!!

[@vincevegacustoms754]

Nah,these setups dont match stock honda configuration.people who do all the work wont tell you it doesnt handle as good and wasted their time...you want the weight out front in a honda its been engineered that way. Best handling rwd honda only turn engine and build channel...

[@4321eyeseeyou]

This car was built over 10 years ago, and I think it was at Willow Springs for the defunt mag, Compact Sports Cars competition and it placed in 2nd Place. You have to know how to balance this set up. If you don't think it can be done then look at this old car, the Crown Corvair, now he did all the work and it is Balanced, you get to see it drive and the review of it of how good it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZmun2ufmaqUkKc

[@davidbowser2395]

Rather build a car the way I want rather going out buying a car already made. Give mad props to this guy for the craftsmanship he's put in. Lot of people wouldn't do it but he had the time and patience to do it all and with all that. He made something awesome bc he built it. That's what makes your own build personal. Just saying....

[@wombatonsteroids]

Super amazing, and very inspiring that hey did things to actually make it practical on the street like retaining AC and using a lot of sound deadening. I'm curious what the final curb weight ended up being. Very cool.

[@voodoo1449]

Now that's craftsmanship....great job

[@walapopgonzala9301]

A truly awesome and stunning build. Looks perfect!

[@clonestarr3466]

You have to keep this thing forever.

[@awesomenesssprime8118]

Some dedication for sure. RWD RX-7 does the job already for me, but your build is unique.

[@alwayswatching2820]

I'm not a Honda lover but you have to respect the engineering this guy did believe it or not I didn't skip or stop the vid great vid bud great build

[@matthewpowell1855]

Shout-out to ever broke this man’s heart😮

[@denozed6554]

Insane build. Mad respect.

[@freeman1352]

Where would you even begin amazing work

[@peterdlynes]

Excellent work. That was the last good Integra model and I loved the one I owned even though it got stolen several times and finally got stripped, basturds. Yours is so unique, I bet Acura would buy it back from you.

[@jaileea2008]

Bro you have mad skills 😎😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@Henry.P]

Great build. I almost fast forwarded the video. But I had to watch it in it's entirety. Amazing. Gotta respect the man hours put into this.

[@TWZT3DMIND3D]

This integra came out sexy! I like it. Nice craftsmanship. Takes a lot of heart and guts to build your integra like this. #Respect

[@theomnipresent1]

Someone who REALLY like integra's!

[@czo94]

This is a real build, amazing work.

[@lsh3rd]

Thank you for sharing... you are a true craftsman!

[@aymaneoubad5057]

The integra should've came stock with RWD and a 6speedMANUAL TRANSMISSION

[@JuliusPeoples]

This brought joy to my face

[@zackk5734]

Who ever built this did an excellent job I want one built by him

[@Vardoulika]

Is there video of this car in action at the track or a review video showing actual video footage of it vs a photo-log?

[@xXChaz9849Xx]

Wow the attention to details on this thing was amazing. Wish there was video footage of it.

[@kikoeltagger]

sir may the Honda gods bless you ....let the vtec roar ....i remember as a kid talking about building something like this but actually seeing someone do it it's hard to put words into it this type of effort is only done by those who love the car and u my friend are a hero amongst few

[@patarmanurung4743]

You did this project in your own small garage. Cool.

[@Patrick94GSR]

Yet another legendary build thread destroyed by the Photobucket debacle. FYI the thumbnail for this video is my photo that I took over 10 years ago when Dave came through Memphis on his way to CA. The build was started in 2004 and completed in 2007.

[@zackk5734]

So u built this or jus the one in the thumb nail pic........fyi that pic is of this build

[@Patrick94GSR]

Dave Dunn built the car from 2004 to 2007. I took the photo that is used for the thumbnail, when Dave visited Memphis in 2007.

[@jrod7679]

Wow i take my hat of for u truly an amazing build.

[@vulcanpilot-go7dj]

Beautiful build.

[@jasongarcia6160]

i love this wish I could get that help on my 98 Integra ls

[@miguel300ish]

amazing work, truly beautiful and tons of work amazing solid car nice prelude theme goin on but amazing stock integra look on the outside .

[@3am-421]

Primo build a-z so so clean hella good job guys

[@timwolf6470]

Proper looks good mate

[@Chridfer]

I've always loved the look of integras but hated that they were fwd. This is sick!

[@fuzzfizz]

It will be awesome if it also had an engine at the front.

[@TzV357]

fuzzfizz I think someone already did that if I can remember

[@GilangMagrial]

awesome build.!!

[@dc_5sauce]

Nuts! Well done!

[@fryjumanji6359]

Nice build.. one love from canada

[@mogggasso2140]

Great work.

[@DR.ELEKTRIK]

This is really cool!! I hope smogging it wont be a problem 🤔

[@yeeerrrpp7081]

next mods should be a built high compression all motor with this f20b and wider, thicker race tires but huge props on this build. much respect

[@zackk5734]

It's a h22a4 witch puts out a good amount of stock power but with some bolt on parts an a good tune would be crazy

[@hhinojosareef1]

Best build ever!

[@elijahstewart1333]

i want to do this to my 3g eclipse some day, inspiration

[@looseparashoot]

I own three Integras and well thank you sir

[@CTKahuna]

[@2K8Si]

Absolute awesomeness.

[@troublemaker240]

Remember reading about this car in SportCompactCar

[@zongyang4707]

amazing fabrication..! I wish I had the skills..!!!!!

[@imSchwaggy]

Whoa nice mr2 !

[@bronxballa1020]

This guy did an AWESOME job, a true engineer.

[@MaSSaCR3_]

Wow you sir are a Legend

[@pratikpalchaudhuri8058]

Prelude dash and door panels too?? Insane amount of work , literally insane.

[@matthewpowell8284]

very impressive

[@desmofc]

Wow!! This is truly amazing. The craftsmanship, creativeness, and attention to detail is outstanding. Mad props! Is there any video of this masterpiece ripping around a track?

[@marknixon5958]

Super clean build but what is it's performance like how much extra weight did you add what is its cornering ability like with so little weight in the front and did you do any work to the motor cause obviously you didn't turbo it.

[@jordanbrady5110]

What made you put an prelude dash and shifter in it over the original acura oem parts? Amazing build though

[@JulioSalvat]

Wow mad respect! What dash are you running?

[@dariidon5861]

How did u work out the shifter. Are you using the original fwd gear box? If so are the gears in the original shift pattern?

[@dsmmike95]

Nice build. I thought of trying that on a gst have a nice mid engine 4g63 rwd

[@HiMyNameIsJonathan]

I remember seeing this build on Honda tech many many years ago

[@dramirez6493]

"Impressive.. most impressive"

[@ScottoGrotto]

Wow, Fantastic!! What was/is the weight distribution front and rear? Super well done, super inspiring!!!

[@jacobabl87]

Looks like you put in a prelude dash.. was this because of the H22 or did you just prefer it over the Integra dash?

[@wjohnsaunders]

Wow, that's a lot of work to transform the car to snap over-steer. Although got to respect the attention to detail and workmanship.

[@slickrick2470]

did you have to add an extra water pump to circulate the coolant to the front or is it all done by the stocker?

[@mrcontroversy222]

really skimped out on the whole nice engine cover huh? badass car though!

[@DreamGTS]

..you have no idea how hard I cheered at 17:33. No carbon monoxide poisoning! Maybe a plexiglass window in the future for that cover...

[@forbiddenera]

So awesome! Tons of hard work here would be easy to make it 4 wheel steering to ;)

[@TCreatorO]

Love it! But I personally would ventilate the engine a bit better, have you had any issues with temperatures, or anything related to airflow in the new engine bay?

[@suavehouse5150]

It's the NSX baby brother lol 😂 nice build bro

[@ItalianMafioso344]

What is the weight distribution on that thing man? Awesome build

[@vt2704]

Awesome.

[@coreyoliver5980]

It's nice but good lord the music and amount of pictures just makes me want to stop watching the video

[@bookemherakd6900]

tell me about it i hate the video love the build
