Nice, I really enjoyed redoing my rear license plate lights on mine for some reason lol.
I would have just cleaned these up but I actually have had the new ones in my garage over 8 years from an old Integra that got stolen from me way back. It finally got put to use!

...I actually found one after a couple of trips to the local pick-n-pull. I had tried a 99 Integra initially only to find out that it didn't have the over vent valve. Found a 00 Integra today and it had one in good shape! For reference In case anyone needs one, they are only on the 00-01 year Integras.
Do you have pictures to help others identify the '00-01 over vent valve?
Excellent progress!
Only have one picture of it but here is what it looks like from a top view.

Wire loom looks amazing. Excellent idea.
Thank you sir! I figured since I won't be running any rear interior I should clean things up a bit.

Little more scratched off the list today.
Mounted the TSR battery mount after a little drilling and cutting.

FYI one can drop weight by replacing traction bars with spherical front lower compliance from Kingpin Machine. I ran Full-Race traction bars for years on track in 98-1040 before switching to Kingpin Machine. Street driving is far more comfortable too with less noise.

...I did break the over vent valve on the old tank and it looks to be discontinued so I will be on the hunt for one if anyone has a spare
It's a shame Honda is discontinuing so many parts, especially when the economy has been strong 10yrs, enabling many to rebuild Acura/Honda's. I will ask a few sources to see if they have this piece.
The red isn't my style but I like the look of the wiring for a more track/race oriented car.
Appreciate it! I actually found one after a couple of trips to the local pick-n-pull. I had tried a 99 Integra initially only to find out that it didn't have the over vent valve. Found a 00 Integra today and it had one in good shape! For reference In case anyone needs one, they are only on the 00-01 year Integras.
So with that said, I Installed the over vent valve and got the new tank and hardware on the car.
Also picked up a new driver side cf faux vent as mine had one of the sliders broken
Replaced the rear license plate lights with a new set
Other than the straps , what else should one purchase for this?

Thanks for the suggestion! I am definitely gonna have to put these on my buy list.

Just the hardware associated with the straps I'd say. A pair of M8 bolts, the bent hook in bolts, the nuts, and washers. I also replaced the small rubber line for fuel return because it looked pretty beat up (the one going to the fuel pump assembly)

A lot of the clips for the plastic covers on mine were stuck and damaged during removal so you may want to plan to replace them (center plastic screw with expansion surround).
I think helms calls for replacing hose clamps too.

Ahh yeah mine were beat also. I had replacement ones in my clips bin thankfully.

After a 4 month wait, HYTECH exhaust is in!
Enjoy! This is a quality piece.
