#134428 I have a 1992 hatch in the process of being built, hopefully start a nice build thread very soon just been very busy.

I have decided to swap in a b18c1 and was going to just buy the swap and slap it in but i found a very good deal on a GSR that i couldnt pass up. The car is in rough shape and just wasnt taken car of but the motor is very strong, great compression, etc. So i will just be pulling the motor out and putting it in my hatch.

Seeing that the Integra has some decent parts i will try to part out what i can and make some money back. I was just wondering if someone could give me some advice and tell me what parts can be used from the integra and put on the hatch.

Kind of a noob question but if i part the car out and just scrap it i might as well use w.e parts i can to better my build. Any suggestions would be much appreciated, I already have some parts ill be using but id like to see what everyone can come up with.

Thanks 8)

#137161 Wish it had the stock gs-r seats pisses me off definetly going to use the sway bars. Hatch is pretty stripped and dont think i will put a back seat in it. It does have a stainless catback exhaust but the pipe and massive think i will just sell it probably get a few bucks. Cluster might be nice. If i am not mistaken the brake set up works to, correct? Thanks for the help
