1993 DA Integra - 121,650 miles - 5 Speed - PRICE LOWERED
Sold - Thanks!
Purchased this in February from dkboyny11 and decided it wasn't what I wanted. Original sale thread with pics here: http://www.hondamarketplace.com/show....php?t=2709877
I paid $2500 for it, bought over $1000 in parts and installed some of them. The rest come with.
The good:
- It now has Tein HA's w/ KYB GR-2's installed all around. The rears were put on after I stopped driving it and have less than a mile on them, the fronts have about 2-3000miles.
- When I installed the shocks/springs I also put in new top hats/mounts.
- Brand new weather stripping/window trim as i was tired of air leaking in and highway noise (Never leaked any rain, just a bit of air at high speeds). The new trim fits perfectly and the windows sit snug against them.
- I replaced the fuel filter shortly after I bought it as well.
- I don't think dkboyny11 mentioned in his sale post that it has HID's installed and they are not an obnoxious purple, they are a slightly blue-white and work great - if he mentioned it and I missed it, sorry I'm getting old
Parts included:
- new timing belt
- all new accessory belts
- water pump
- upper and lower radiator hoses
- a COMPLETE set of Energy Suspension Hyper-Flex bushings including motor mounts
- enough synthetic oil and filter to do an oil change. (It has had the oil changed recently but could use it again soon I'm sure.)
- 4-2-1 header I bought from 89flaredhatch for it that you'll need some gasket material for
- Oil Pan Gasket (Was going to pull the pan when i ran a bottle of motor flush through it)
- bottle of motor flush (works great, used it on my BMW before it was stolen)
- Transmission Fluid to change it
- New Drain plugs for the Oil Pan and Transmission
The bad:
- While it sits in mostly the same condition as when i bought it, it has a new dent it received from being lowered onto a jack improperly when the front suspension was changed.
- Additionally the passenger rear rotor is slightly warped and is causing a rubbing noise. It will need replacement but the pads all have plenty of meat left on them.
- It looks like it sits a little higher in the rear than the front, but that may be because the rear suspension has not had a chance to settle. As I stated there is less than 1 mile on the rears.
- very small rust spot on trunk/hatch (See pic)
- rust on rear fenders (Looks worse than it is in those pics)
Overall, it runs well, I bought all these parts as preventative maintenance as I planned on putting alot of miles on it and driving it for a long while. As my plans have changed, I have a new car and I don't have the time to install the parts and address these issues but for the most part with a little TLC its an awesome care with low miles for its age.
I was asking $3,000 obo which i think is fair based on what i have into it. Now lowered to $2000 because I want it gone - price is FIRM. My pictures are below and you can view the original sale link for more. I will have it washed before its sold. Feel free to ask any questions and thanks for looking!!

I'd be willing to meet partway but I guess then I'd need to get off my but and figure out the noise.
Or maybe I can cover your one-way ticket on southwest, Its $122 most days next week and drops to $81 starting the 28th.
