I lost control of my 91 integra ls-s in the snow and hit a curb on the passenger side and curbed my gsr blades and looks like i tweaked my sub-frame. What should i do if i cant allign the wheel right? Buy another sub frame and install it or buy a integra shell and swap everything over?

 

you wont know for sure unless you replace the obvious damaged parts and have an alignment check. i would take it to a reputable body shop. they could definately tell you how extensive the damage is.

 

my mechanic looked under it last night, the sub frame is damaged on the passenger side make the wheel sit at an angle so ill burning up tires pretty fast.

 

some body shops have that frame stretcher thingy. it pulls the frame/unibody back to shape. that reminds me similar situation happened to my friend in his Paseo. he slammed into a curb going about 35-45 mph. i forget what components were actually damaged or replaced, but he needed a camber kit (aftermarket) on just one side to compensate for the uneven camber. in fact till this day that one side is still out of spec

well, until you get a alignment printout, there is no way of verifying the extent of damage

you said your steering wheel is crooked? if so, probaly the tie rod end, tie rod and steering rack could be damaged. you would have to replace any one of the broken components before getting an alignment check
