Got a little work done today....
New OEM tank and hardware to replace the originals....

You chose wisely on replacing the tank straps. That is a common item many overlook in maintenance. One breaks, none the wiser, until the second one breaks...then one has to replace their gas tank.

The Facebook pages. Got it off a fellow ITR owner who no longer needed it. This was about 2 year ago or so.

Only made sense. New tank, all new hardware to match! 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

Retired the old interior wire loom for something more up to date.

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

Nice, I really enjoyed redoing my rear license plate lights on mine for some reason lol.

Do you have pictures to help others identify the '00-01 over vent valve?

Excellent progress!

Wire loom looks amazing. Excellent idea.
