They are indeed washer jets for the headlights. I've been led to believe they're only on Euro cars not on imports etc. I hate them they'll be getting changed reasonably soon as I maybe going facelift bumper for her

I've owned 3 of them (Plus two 3rd gens including a USDM Type R) and I would say that the QUALITY is just as good, if not better. I can't think of a think on the car that was made cheaply or wasn't engineered with a practical enthusiast in mind. My 2nd gen GS-R had every luxury feature that my 99 GT-S 6gc has. The 6gc handles a little better and is more comfortable, but the Integra was MUCH faster. Both the GS's I had were probably fast too. Both have the stupid power antenna that breaks on every car. The JBL sound system in the 6gc is much nicer then the Infinity one that was the Integra, but I wouldn't say that's a quality issue as much as a luxury benefit. As much as I love me 6gc, and I would not trade it for an Integra (maybe a JDM Type R), there is nothing bad I can say about them ... except I'm sick of the people who drive them
. One of the bigger reasons I finally left Honda's and went to Subaru and Toyota.

I looked at a few Integras before getting the Celica, they didn't seem as solidly built as the Celica. Interior wasn't as nice either. Not that it was bad, just not as good. What turned me off is that they had interference engines, and 90% of them have been ragged and riced out. The Celica has a very dense feel for a car of its size, I didn't get that from the Integra. Then again in fairness the base model Celica was more expensive than the base model Integra. Yes the Integra is faster, but nothing engine swaps can't fix.

QUOTE (Box @ Nov 18, 2012 - 7:14 PM) Hey, what's that piece of crap doing behind your car? Lol. Trust me it's not a piece of crap. None the less it's owned by my older bro and he builds it to look nice and not rice it out. It was sitting flushed with polished xxr001. It looked nicely flushed until he went over a barrier and it was too low where the exhaust pipe caught the barrier pole and ripped off the exhaust piping from the end of the downpipe all the way to the cat. LOL! It was a funny morning for me and sad morning for him. After that incident he gave up the flush and sold his rims and bought some rota slips and it's still slammed. Not as flushed but the car is still low.

The power actually is enough to barely keep up with my 6gc. The power isn't that bad you can say. It is .4 litre smaller than man so yea. Lol.

Meh the only imports I actually like are Toyotas and a few Nissans. The rest I give a hard time.
