FS: Integra - Denver, CO
I have a 95 Integra LS, 171K. It's a good project car. I am no longer able to afford or find time to work on it since I am working and starting school.
Interior - The windshield is slightly cracked, the front seats are torn (rear seats are nearly mint - leather), the climate control cable seized while I was trying to change the bulbs and it can't move from hot to cold. I have to reach under the dash and pull the lever to get heat. The door panels have one small tear each. Other than that, the interior is pretty good.
Exterior - The car needs paint. I sprayed it with urethane primer in spring and was about to paint it in mid-September. The body is pretty good, but the driver side fender needs to be changed, it's not bad it's just not 100% perfect. It has 98+ front and rear bumpers (2001 to be exact), and halo headlights. The tires are practically new and riding on stock 5-spokes. I have a Tanabe pro SS suspension that's no longer height adjustable but you can still change the ride stiffness. The rings wore out but you can order them from Tanabe for $50/wheel. I changed the front dr. side so it needs three more. I like the height so I didn't bother replacing the other ones. It has a camber kit in the front. Front and rear tower bars. LoJack recovery system and a Python alarm with keyless entry, alpine speakers in the back, sonys in the front. AC is disconnected, needs a belt and a recharge if you wanna use it.
Motor - GSR swap with about 130K miles on it. The head was built in April by ImportSports. All new internals including Skunk2 valves, ITR retainers, Skunk2 springs, new seals and RC 370cc injectors. JDM CTR camshafts and custom cam gears. New fuel pump. Running on Hondata S300 and P28 ECU. It has a DC header, a short ram intake and a stock LS exhaust with an Apexi muffler. The exhaust has a crack in the resonator but still sounds good. I was gonna change it to a cat-back so I didn't worry about it for now. Running a test pipe. The bottom end still needs to be fixed, the piston rings are done and it's burning oil and losing compression. I was gonna go all-motor and put in CTR pistons, add a new TB and intake manifold. All that, with the exhaust and a new CAI, would have brought the car to about 205 WHP which is plenty from a NA motor at this altitude.
OK Now.... The car doesn't currently run. The engine works and starts normally but I can't get it into gear. I changed the clutch master and slave cylinders and it still won't go into gear. I think the tranny is good but it's probably the throwout bearing that is out. I am also suspecting the clutch. I have an ACT clutch with a Clutchmaster flywheel.
Before the clutch took a crap, I estimated that it would take about $3500 to get the car looking and running good. $2500 or so for the bottom-end rebuild and exhaust, about $600 for all the little stuff in the interior including seats and $300-$400 for the paint job, which I was gonna complete myself.
The car has a clean Virginia title. I was gonna transfer it back to CO as soon as I registered the car. No history of accidents or anything. It was stolen before but just for a joyride, no major damage other than the ignition and the hatch, which i replaced.
Let me know if this is something you're looking for. It's a really good project car, most of the stuff you'd want on a all motor car is already there. You just gotta take care of the pistons, exhaust and paint.
