95 Integra 5spd 225k beater - Boston
It's green on black.
The driver side door and fender are a very pretty Paradise Blue Green Pearl (BGP-33) as the previous owner had someone change lanes into him. The damage was cosmetic only, but as the car needs a paint job anyways, I figured I might as well, as I anticipated getting it painted.
It burns a little oil. Half a quart / month. I don't know where it goes, I just keep a spare quart in the car and check the oil whenever I fuel up.
There's some creak action in the front passenger side suspension, occurs during braking, starting from a stop, turning, etc. Probably related to the car's decent sized drop, which is about 2" all around, I'd say. Steering is unaffected by the creak.
Needs tires (I have 3x LS Meshies, and 4x steelies, all included)
And probably going to need brakes soon.
The ebrake only functions on one side, the pin on the passenger side is rusted and sticks, thus the ebrake light stays on.
The thermostat isn't functional, no idea why, but the fans still turn on, so the car isn't overheating.
The interior door panels are black, as I saved them from my old car. They're in good condition, the rest of the interior is tan, and in OK condition.
- I have a black armrest and a spare climate control unit that I'll include. I believe I also have the trim piece that the shifter goes in, but I'm not 100% sure.
- Also have a dark green 98-01 rear bumper that I'll include to match the 98 front bumper.
The high beam plastic is yellow-tinted for that extra ricey look.
I had the windshield replaced, the glass is insured lifetime against stress cracks.
The exhaust is a 2.5" catback tanabe with a silencer. The original resonator cracked off of the B pipe and a slightly longer resonator was welded in, so it's secure.
I have documentation for both of those.
The radio is a JVC KD HDR1
Pretty simple, plays MP3 cds and gets HD stations, which is all I wanted.
Speakers are stock all around, no sub.
Car runs fine, drove it out to Lee, MA (From Boston) early in June for a wedding, 4 hours, 250 miles roundtrip.
I bought the car after my accident last year with intentions of getting it painted and all prettied up. Alas, I've lost my job due to the failing mortgage industry, and can no longer afford to pay for insurance, gas, and parking.
I'll post pictures when I get home if there's any interest. (Not expecting there to be too much.)
Thanks for reading,
Mike

Got a flat tire on the way home today so there's a donut on it.
Also, I forgot to mention that the ABS hasn't been working since I bought it, but I haven't looked into it because I don't care much for ABS anyways.
Thanks for looking,
Mike
Edit: Also, the paint might look tolerable due to the low-quality pictures, but it's not. There's a lot of clearcoat failure all over.
The interior and engine bay are nothing spectacular. They look about what you'd expect from a beater, but I'll get the pictures up when I get home.
Thanks for your expressed interest.

Here are the interior / engine bay / rust pics.











Included pictures of:
The steering wheel since it's pretty damaged.
Rust spots, and a thumb for size indication on the non-wheel-well rust spot.
Everything else is pretty straightforward. Things of note are that the climate control vents are messed up, the triangle piece on the passenger door is missing. (I had tweeter housings from a civic that I was going to fit in but never got around to. I can include those if they're wanted.)
The carpet is only "ok". It sucks since it's tan, and thus has seen better years.
