Default Just bought my 1st integra 91' 5spd

I've owned a 93 Prelude for a while now and the engine finally gave out. I just bought a 91 integra LS, which you guys call DA I think, well anyways, what should I look for that's known to break or give out with time on this car that could be different than a prelude?
I heard the B16vtec head is a good idea as well, thanks in advance.

nice man. You're right, they are DA's.

Not too many things go wrong with the DA's though. There is one spot that I have heard gets rust but I'm unsure of where it's at. I think near the trunk but not too sure.

The b16 head on the ls block is ls vtec, it can be pricey if you do it right. It's not too expensive if you just put the head on but also not too reliable.

you, being here since 06 should know to look in the faq. they are stickied at the top of the forum page. anyway, at least give it a good tune up, check for excessive bushing wear, brakes, ect.... same maintenance (sp?) that you would do on any car. oh, the passenger side water leak, all that good ****.

The cowl probably leaks. You'll want to fix that sucker.

Thanks for the help, I just found some problems, bad motor mounts and the switches for the windowns and locks are broken, won't stay into place, no rear view mirror and some other plastics that are missing, I'm gonna post it on the WTB thread if there's any here, so I'm gonna start shopping, it kind of feels good to have this ride, looks so clean and simple. Also, is this car supposed to have a rear wiper? It kind of looks like they took something off from there!
