Integra Replacement Muffler

NPowell — Fri, 22 May 2026 02:33:44 GMT

Hi all. Have a stock 2001 Integra LS 2-door liftback with a spent muffler (corroded and leaking). Looking to replace the over-axle pipe/muffler assembly. Want a cost-effective, quiet, factory-style muffler. Unfortunately, I am running into some hurdles finding the part. Our go-to independent mechanic said his supplier doesn't have one.

Online searches turn up quite a few for 4-door Integras. But scant few are advertised as compatible with a 2-door.

Anyone know if the over-axle pipe/muffler assembly is actually different for a 2-door than for a 4-door?

More generally, any thoughts about where to find a part that fits?

Thanks so much in advance!

Shifter Bushings

I'm working on getting the car sorted and realized the shifter is a bit slopy, indicating the bushing are notably worn. Are metal bushing good for DD or is poly the better choice?

Evap issue

Hey there, I�ve got a 91 integra with a lingering smell of fuel around the rear of the car. No fumes inside the car, gets worse when it�s hot out or has been driven hard. I know it�s likely a cracked vent or evap line, just wondering if there�s a typical failure spot on these cars? Thank you

I got my 98 GSR back

I gave my nephew my 98 GSR almost ten years ago. He got tired of it and gave it back to me. It has now 151k miles. Still in good shape.
It has a check ABS light on? Any idea?
Also, I want to return this to stock. Right now, it has after market wheels and Recaro SRD seats in great shape. Willing to trade.

Front end accident, trying to fix

PandaBear — Thu, 07 May 2026 08:12:13 GMT

97 RS Automatic, all stock, 280k miles. Liability insurance only (obviously since it is so old). I am not really trying to keep this car as a collector car, it sort of is my beater but I do have sentimental value to it since it is one owner and my first car. I do have a Prius and an IS250 as well. It does not have to be perfect, just drivable as my beater and I am all good.

So long story short I got into a small accident today on the freeway. Slowed down too late and by the time my tire skidded I still ended up crashing into a CRV in front of me. Their plastic bumper is "fine" and a little scratched. My hood is folded up a bit by like 2 inches. The top of the front bumper got pushed in a bit but the bottom seems fine. Based on the look the hood latch is pushed inward and bent the AC condenser. The bumper didn't crack, just scratched up a bit on the paint.

Structurally it seems like I need to get a new hood for safety, bumper reinforcement bar and / or support, maybe the white foam absorber, and finally probably the T frame on the "bulkhead". I think almost all the parts are out of production by now and if I were to get them they would either be used from picknpull, and likely need a paint job if I can't find it in the same Frost White. Another thing is the bulkhead seems to be welded on is that right? I don't know how to weld, is there any other repair method like rivet that would be just as good?

BWR Throttle Body Gasket

I have a 70mm BWR throttle body for my B18B1 and the gasket I have for it is leaking. Based on what I can find, these throttle bodies have a particular gasket for themselves that I can�t find to purchase anywhere. I got some gasket material and I�m cutting it to match the best I can. I was wondering if anyone could show me what their gasket looks like up against their BWR throttle body. Thank you very much!
(the green gasket looks like what comes with these on the eBay one I found)
