GSSR's retrofit: These pictures do it justice

2 words: S2K retrofit

After spending all day putting in David's new clutch and flywheel, we decided to capture the essence of his recent retrofit (which was poorly displayed with poor pics). Enjoy these fresh new ones.

Bloody hell.. I'm tempted.
What was the price tag for this conversion?
Details?

I'd like to build an archive thread for the Integra FAQ at least.. so if you've got the details and don't mind sharing, I'd appreciate it. :oh:

Installing a clutch huh? Damn dude, do you have a lift at your pad? That's a big job w/o the right equipment. Ok, anyways, call me a jack ass but what exactly is an S2K retrofit? I see it has something to do w/the lights. It is fitting an S2K stock HID into an Integra???

I am not solid on the price, so David, you can fill in the inconsistencies...they are your headlights after all.

If you don't count any of the issues we had trying to retrofit ourselves and the purchase of unnecessary things, the initial TSX projectors were $200 and the upgrade to S2K projectors plus professional retrofit was $300. He already had a HID kit that he had hooked up to the stock projectors that was reused. I don't know how much the bulbs cost since we couldn't reuse the rebased D2S bulbs he had with the stock HID setup.

I am very tempted to have my headlights retrofitted, but the cost of a new set of headlights (to eliminate any downtime), the projectors, and the HID kit, and the bulbs are too pricey for just a brighter pair of headlights. The bling factor is damn sweet, but the novelty would wear off pretty quickly for me.

It is my second clutch job done in the comfort of my own garage using jackstands and hand tools. :oh:

Really, it sucked ass and I hate doing clutch jobs, but it went smoothly.

An S2k retrofit is when the S2k stock HID projectors are fitted into stock Integra projectors.

Another standard clutch job, just without the ball joint incident I had with my car.

I fully agree with that.

He is probably going to upgrade to Volks within a few months. The ones he has now are bent on every rim.
