hey everyone! And thank you soo much for the welcomes! I am so happy to find the group and get involved again here :)

ITR1689 - Yes I have been on H-T for many many years, though my name has changed a few times on there from 00ITRChick to Sexkitten and now just to Gina lol

Frank - Hey there! Long time no talk :) I finally got my ITR again hehehe I told you that I would, it just took some time to find the right one.

I am so happy to have the ITR again, its about time! I have waited over a year now. As you all have requested - I have lots of pictures to share, mostly of my previous cars as I haven't had much time for new photography hehe

First, here is the gallery section showing the 3 ITR's I have had Integra Type R's
Next, here is the other cars I have had other cars
And finally, some links to ITR related meets including the 2003 ITR Expo in the states meetings

I don't have time to post the rest of the pics I have, so enjoy these and more will come later. If you're curios about what mods I had on my previous cars, just ask its too much to list for a few of my cars haha

Now on to my questions -
1- Is there a Mugen distributor here in the country? If not, do any of you know if King Motorsports will ship internationally?
2- I have the exhaust and intake up for sale if anyone is interested (handgemaakte r.v.s. uitlaat (EPS) van spruitstuk tot einddemper AND tenzo cold air-intake)
3- Any meetings scheduled soon? I would love to meet and talk with you guys in person

There is a Mugen distributor in Belgium. But you don't want to shop there! I had to wait 16 month for my Mugen airbox! And I payed after 6 month waiting. We had to go to Belgium to give him a visit to speed things up a little. After the visit it went a lot faster! ;-)

Please, do your self a favor and mail King for your orders. With this story they will sent you all the stuff you want.


nice picture gina...... ;-)
Glad you made it here!

Thanks for the tip about the distributor in belgium, I emailed King tonight but haven't heard back yet. I hope they ship here as I have always ordered my Mugen stuff from them in the past (twinloop exaust, header, etc).

There's a Club BBQ meeting supposed to happen sometime during this summer, but the plans haven't crystalized yet. :dunno:
I also have a Tour de Champagne in the pipeline, but am too busy at the moment to finalise the details. I'll try to get around to doing so later this week.

It certainly would be great to have you as a member of our club as well. It would make the meetings very interesting for those who are a bit "English-challenged" :wink:

Just kidding, most of us will manage just fine! :lol:

I like your tast in Mugen, i'm a big fan myself! Regret to say that there are no part's for my ATR :( . But you can try www.Hyline.co.uk.
But if you have a contact at King, it would be better I think. Don't forget you'll have to pay inco tax and tax if you buy in the States. It could be cheaper to buy in Europe(no tax).

Meeting's are comming, hope to see you there.

Hey Gina, welcome...

some nice ex-cars there!

about King: make sure they know you're a returning customer, moved overhere etc...
A friend of mine ordered some stuff from them and eventually canceled his order and bought from some place else... what King couldn't do in 2 months, he had at his doorstep in 2 weeks!

Problem is: that wasn't about Mugen parts... So you might be stuck with them... (but you're clearly a returning customer... shouldn't be a problem than)

I contacted King, they said no problem at all to ship here to me. I think its a better route for my Mugen intake since I have a history with King and the weight isnt much for the box. However, its a different story with the Mugen twinloop exhaust as I am not sure that I want to know what the charges would be to ship that....

My husband and I dont mind driving pretty far to get the Mugen exhaust (france, belgium, germany, UK, etc) we just need to find a company willing and able to actually supply it lol

On a side note, anyone intersted in the header or exhaust that is coming off of my car tomorrow night? hehehehe

Oh, You have to know that euro spec ITR's have a bigger, taller catalic convertor. The mugen catback won't fit your car.
There are two options.
You can shorten the Mugen a bit to fit the cat. or you can order a short race cat from the states. What kind of header do you want?
Euro spec headers are only 55 mm so maybe its easyer to do al in one. So JDM size header, JDM size short cat and the complete Mugen twinloop without the need to make it shorter.

hmm thank you for the tip I was not aware that the euro spec ITR was different! I wonder why the cat is different here?

I was planning to order the Mugen header and exhaust at the same time so I'll just add a matching size cat to the mix hehe. This is all after the mugen intake :lol:

speaking of the intake, I need the stock intake pipe to install the mugen intake and the stock black pipe is missing from my ITR ( the tenzo intake in its place and no stock parts provided to me ). I wonder if the dealer here will charge an arm and a leg for it, or if its better that I grab one from the dealer back in the states in september. Of course, this is if no one here has one just laying around :wink:

:toost:

I believe there is also an USDM Mugen header and a USDM Mugen catback. So be careful when you order one.

I have no idea what they are selling in Europe, it could be either JDM or USDM. I don't think there is an EUDM version.
