200xxx and still tick'n!!
Rarely drop into Honda-tech these days but just wanted to share something with this forum.
I've owned a 98 acura integra since 98; picked up the car at 12,000 miles in 98 and it's been driven daily every single day from that day until now as a daily driver and weekend warrior.
- Over 215,000 miles on chassis, ~ 125,000 on 2nd motor
- Over 30 track days
- Car got me through college, my twenties and now into my marriage!!
- Plan to drive it until it dies on the track (but I don't think it's going to die on it's own)
Anyways, point is... You build a honda, build it right, treat it right, have fun with it and take care of it and it will last longer than you ever need it to last.

98 Integra w/ 206k here (engine and chassis)... Picked it up last year with 186k, since then it's been my DD and slowly becoming track-only. 6 track days so far, many more planned
I have a built b18b waiting to go in once the original engine bites the dust (it's still running strong!)
agreed!

Meh. I sold my 93 Civic for $1500 and it had 312k on the clock. Still got ~37mpg and didn't burn a drop of oil. Original engine, just changed the wear items and had to do the head gasket at 285k. Put 3 clutches in it and had to replace the trans (ISB died) once. Other then that, just change the oil. It's a honda. 215k it's just starting to get broken in.
