That's right, I typed the title! For those that know me know that I have never owned a Honda with a v-tec motor. I have always loved my B20 motors. However, found a all stock 1997 Acura Integra GS-R with 163,*** miles on it for $2,000.00. Paint is jacked, needs a new fender, and seats but what do you guys think? Also will need some new taillights cause it has some gay *** altezza type ones on it.

Thought it was to good of a deal to pass up seeing as the GS-R swaps alone are almost $2,000!

 

Good price with a gsr swap. I have a set of 94-97 taillights if you need em. Just send me a pm.

 

Congrats on the gsr man. sweet buy! since the paint is jacked, just do a DIY on the body work..the fender is a piece of cake. the 94-97 is the best style integras!

 

motor looks clean minus the hack valve cover gasket job

 

Lots of potential. Clean it up and keep it that way!

 

Congrats on actually owning a real honda engine with decent horsepower for once

I'd pull the engine for a rebuild if I were you.

BTW keep the taillights it's the way to go

 

Congrats on the buy, that's a pretty good price considering everything on it is FIXABLE..

Including those haggard *** taillights.

 

Over the weekend I decided to fix the hacked up looking valve cover job. I replaced the valve cover gasket, valve cover grommets, spark plug tube seals, and v-tec solenoid gasket.

 

Interested in selling or trading jason?

 

Wow, that motor looks pretty clean for 163k. No leaks visible, no paint chipping on the VC....How does she drive? any clicking, clattering? Beeping and bopping?

 

Nothing at all, starts right up with no valve clattering. Warms up like it should and just purs right a 750rpms. I did notice that the timing belt has been changed when I was doing the valve cover. Also seen in the owners manual where they keep maintenance up on the car. Nothing in there about a rebuild but someone must have loved her before me. So other then what was wrote down that has been done I really don't know the history of the car.

Driving is very good and the tranny shifts smooth as well. Doesn't act like a car with 163K on it so I am happy with her.

 

Well, since I bought my 2003 Infiniti G35 coupe I don't drive the Integra no more. So it's time for it to go! If your around the Dallas/Fort Worth area then you can have a chance on winning it from E-Bay

Is this accurate?

 

As in what, a complete GS-R swap ALMOST costing $2,000.00?

 

Ya. That's what my integra is. Just wonder if that's really what it costs. Would make me feel better about my tegg.
