1994 Acura Integra RS Hatch
HIGHLIGHTS:
One previous owner
198k miles
Frost white with gray/black interior
Original B18B1 (OBD1) with original 5-speed
Burns zero oil
Rust free
Clean, dirt-free interior
Ultra reliable and quick on track
Tastefully modded and well maintained
Recently did a full track day at Putnam park on 3/26/11 - zero issues the entire weekend
Price: $5,500 as-is
I am selling the one car I've owned longer than any other. It has been nothing but a blast to drive throughout my entire ownership (~3.5 years) and I want to see it go to a good home. I am moving on to a new platform, but I have spent a lot of time and effort to develop this car to what it currently is.
I purchased this in November of 2007 from an Acura dealership in Atlanta. The previous owner had put 170,000 miles on it and was an elderly woman who daily drove it for many years, but eventually relegated it to a grocery getter. Once she became old enough where it was impractical to shift, she traded it in on a brand new Acura TL. The service department, who had basically seen the car for the past 13 years, ran it through the normal Acura Certified tests, but could not actually sell it as a Certified Pre-Owned car due to the age and mileage. I had been seeking a Frost White 94-95 (OBD1) Integra RS for over a year and this was literally the perfect car.
The 94-95 RS model is the lightest Integra produced since 1990. It has no sunroof, no cruise control, no ABS, no power locks, and reduced sound deadening throughout. It retains power windows, power steering, power brakes, and this particular example had the optional factory-installed air conditioning. Yes, it blows ICE COLD even on those awful 95 degree autocross days. The heat and defrost works terrific as well, which I can vouch for since this car will start and run great even in 0 degree weather. Speaking of daily driving, since you will probably drive this to and from events, it achieves about 26 mpg in city driving and upwards of 35 mpg on the highway. My personal best is 35.7, which I think can be beat! Best of all, it prefers to drink the cheap stuff (87 octane).
Over the years I have performed many simple modifications, each with a specific purpose and reason. Along the way, I have been overkill on maintenance to ensure that it has never let me down. It hasn't, and I don't foresee any minor or major maintenance needed in the coming years. I have invested more money than I'd like to think about, but at the end of the day, it is one of the most rewarding dual duty cars you can buy.
In the present form, this car is elligible for the SCCA STX class (autocross) and NASA TTF class (Time Trials). It is capable of winning with ease in either. I won 12 of 12 Kentucky/Cincinnati region autocross events in 2011 for STX and regularly placed in the top 5 in PAX among 70+ drivers. Just this past weekend (March 26th) a friend that is a far better driver than I ran a 1:25.4 at Putnam in 30 degree weather on his second lap ever driving the car. This would have already been a TTF track record without even getting used to the car. I personally ran a 1:28.1 on my first time ever to Putnam (media below).

Installed upgraded Alpine speakers on all corners
Spares included (not a comprehensive list):
Axles
Open differential
Front Hawk HPS pads
Factory cat
Rear exhaust muffler section
Stock driver seat/mount
Stock tape deck radio
Negative items (shortest list yet):
- It has suffered a few casualties of city driving, including some cosmetic scuffs here and there. From 5 feet away, the car looks like it is fresh out of 1994 (original paint). Upon very close inspection, some of the white clearcoat has faded (roof) and there are 1-2 door dings. One vertical scratch on the front bumper, one horizontal scrape on the rear bumper. The rear bumper and hatch were repainted after an earlier minor traffic incident. The frame is 100% straight and still rust free. I have the latest alignment results as proof.
- An uncharacteristic mistake was made while installing the LSD. All LSD's for Integras are made to accomodate for cars with ABS, which means that the speed is sensed through that module rather than a ring gear on the differential itself. The ring gear was not taken off from the open diff to be fitted onto the LSD, so there is no speedometer reading. After some driving, this will result in a check engine light code for VSS (vehicle speed sensor) malfunction. The VSS is working properly (tested) but simply has nothing to read. The check engine light does not effect driving behavior, gas mileage, performance, power output, or anything measurable. There is one odd symptom in rare occasions for track events (>100mph speeds and high heat) which is easily bypassed. All information will be disclosed to the buyer in great detail. Of course, I do have the necessary speed gear that can be installed to rid this issue entirely. I have kept a log of all miles since this issue, have raced nearly a dozen autcrosses, and attended six track days (all successful) since this occured. The LSD performs wonderfully and transforms the car into a totally different animal.
That's it! The car runs stronger than any other Integra (excluding B18C5) I have driven and sounds beautifully to match. At just over 120 wheel horsepower, it is not going to snap your neck back into the seat, but I can assure you that it is more than enough to set extremely respectable times at any track, especially given the low weight.
