Integra Type R project with (K20) motor swap. The picture is a bit blurry. I am in the process of getting my hands on a better camera.

To fit the motor you need to cut out the front end plastic of the engine bay. Eliminate both side reserve tanks. I chose to cut the firewall where the intake manifold on the stock motor sits. This makes it look more real.

One minor suggestion-shoot some semi gloss or flat clear on the seats.They'll look more realistic.

Yeah I'm waiting to do the final touches I did the rears in semi black I gotta do the passenger in black and the driver in semi clear.

But thanks for the commit guys :)
