Okay that's great, but you're not going to run a 10-second quarter mile and keep the thing remotely resembling something that will drive nicely on a public road.
Figure out some kind of reasonable goal and also how much of a budget you want to invest in the project. Then we can recommend a course of action.

Very nice G1. I personally loved the G1 Integra and it does have a great potential. I should know I have one too :thumbup: However mine been pretty beat up. Not sure of the history my friend, the previous owner had a lot of goodies under the hood. But two engines later and after about 5 years of tarnish he gave the car to me. Well it didn’t seem that bad till I started working on it. Saw that the plates where you put the jacks on rotted to a rusty stump, well after another look the entire underbody was rotting. Aside from having a fully rebuilt engine with about 50k on it total (original engine in storage), a Borg Warner Racing clutch, And after my exhaust work the car is basically unsafe to drive(the mechanic that did the welding never mention anything to me).
Anyway let gets to the good part, with my time with the car, I did some re-search you can stuff a b16a in there and work with that. And since the G1’s are pretty light, it works out great. I have some research somewhere I wouldn’t mind mailing it to you. There’s Actually an article in one of the old SCCA about this.
Appearance you should leave it stock looking. I would suggest the Stock SE parts. Has a nice sporty look but still subtle enough to call it a sleeper.
If your in the NYC Area I happen to have a Stock SE spoiler that I never installed ( the black rubbery one with LED ) also have the rear quater trim (both sides needs to be re-painted) Pick up only for the spoiler if your interested. I might be parting out an Apexi N1 with the piping I guess. I only put about 600-800 miles on it since the car never left Brooklyn
hope the this helps

Nope it's this one, found it a while back and been sitting in my room for a while. Worse comes to worse I'll hang it up somewhere and call it a decorative piece .
The research I got was taken from other forums and web-sites here and there. but the SCC article has resources and pics. I have to dig it up. but you can stuff a B16a in there and work with that since the F/I apps for a D16a have to be custom and just about all the others items have to be fabricated like a CAI etc..
This are pics of a G1 SE (not mine) It goes nicely with red and the black trim.
Mike,
