Just bought a 90' integra

[JPL]

as a daily driver. I looked at an integra forum and the first thread i saw was a guy asking about coolant lines going to the air filter. they discussed this and realized it didn't make sense. sigh...

so what should i do to this thing?

my first thought was to add a "hella tight" wing. to add the down force my 273000 mile engine can provide.

anyone else ever have an integra or a "teg"?

any cheap good upgrades?

piss in the fuel tank?

I heard piss in the fuel tank works well for those jap cars.....

For all that mad torque you'll need a front spoiler like this:

What year is this car?

T-belt, fuel filter, accessory belts, cam/crank seals, waterpump, cap, wires, plugs.

(Some airboxes had a coolant based heating element)

Upgrade is A B16A2, B18C5, ETC. In Cali, you should be able to source a full JDM drivetrain + ECU for about 1600-2500.

a few of my buddies have hondas, and a couple of them had DA integras. They're fun little cars, if I were to ever buy a honda/acura it would be one of those.

if i ever bought a honda it be a 92 civic cx hatch. Crazy sick gas mileage yo. But id have to toss in cage just to feel somewhat safe.

i bought this car a while back to save on gas. it gets 40 mpg on the freeway at 65mph w/ the AC off lol. no mods. just a drop and wheels with a front lip. 96 civic dx

1990. i've already changed the belts. i might change the plugs and wires but it's really hard for me to spend money on this car when it could be spent on my e30

[Farbin Kaiber]

But the difference being, you only spend it once to get this thing in tip top shape for another 120k miles. Old Integra's properly maintained I've seen clear 500k.

How much did u buy it for? n do u have any pics?

[88e30is]

Just drive it. You don't want to turn into one of those ricers guys. If its just a dd then save your money to put into the e30. Those things run forever with little maintenance. My brother had a 94 civic and a 95 teg and they both sold with over 350k miles on them.

[Farbin Kaiber]

Seriously, the people that do a little maintenance are the ones that only get 300k with a few engine replacements. Religious maintenance program has awarded some customers I had with 475k on original engine/trans combo with one clutch replacement.

Don't skimp on it if it's your reliable DD.







Oh, and another note, Honda/Acura vehicles do not do well with aftermarket junk. Replace everything you replace with OEM, it's worth the 15-20% price difference.

Do the basic things it needs to be reliable and drive it.

Do you mean a sedan or a hatch? Because thats all they had... OP keep it clean and do maintenance, they are great cars. Also watch for rust on the rear quarters.
