I have a 96 gsr with 111,00 miles on it. it has a new paint job and looks great. it runs good but needs a new clutch. I was thinking about selling it or gettin a rebuild? what do u think?

 

rebuild, you need the following --> ge sleeves, je pistons, crower rods, lovefab sidewinder, sc61 turbo, hondata, 720 cc injectors, and a few other things. After that your engine will work just fine seriously though, i would just replace the clutch. not too costly either. As far as a rebuild, does it need it?

 

Its up to you that car has a lot of potential. You have to think do you want to put money in this car? Do you want to sell it? Its up to you its your money.....

 

111k and you want to rebuild it Y? its still got a lot of miles left b4 that thing craps out i have 105k on mine and wanted to rebuild it and my honda service guy told me why its still a baby. but whatever do wat you want with ur $$

 

Just because it needs a new clutch, you wanna rebuild or sell it? Why not just buy a new clutch?

 

hondas last forever if u take care of em... i've seen tegs pushing 200k and still goin strong..

 

Um, this isn't really a question we can answer.

Do you want an integra? or do you want a different car?

Answer either question, and you have your answer.

 

uhh just replace the clutch..

 

seLL it and get an RSX...they say 96 integra was the worst year

 

no diss 96 tegs...i got one. nah but i say jus go with the new clutch. ACT stage 2, so u can keep a similar feel to stock but it will grab harder. ur motor is still young. i've known guys turboing motors with 130k and it they run gr8. its all about maintanence and car care.

Whaaaat are you trippin'? I had a '96 and it was phreakin' quick with just AEM CAI and Comptech Headers. I miss my '96!!! I think it was a factory freak and I wrecked it

 

thanks.......i think im gonna get a new clutch. I have another question about my intake thou. i have an aem cold air intake...someone was telling me that i should take my by pass valve off and it will give me more hp.... is that right?

 

From what i've heard the bypass valve takes away from the power that the intake provides. If your worried about hydrolock then switch to a short ram or get a comptech icebox

Also, a good way to find out if you need a rebuild is to do a compression test. I've got a local guy that has a GSR. He's on H-T aswell, he ran a 15.0 with his bone stock 95 GSR.....it has 190,000 miles on it. So to answer your question, only rebuild if the car needs it, don't waste money if it doesn't

And definately get a new clutch.

 

Throw a D15 in there and boost it. You'll be fast.

 

Whats a d15?

 

Yeah the bypass valve may rob you of a little bti of power, but heres what i did abck in the NA days. I had a bypass valve btu it **** on me, so since my piping was alreeady cut, I just connected it with a coupler,and ran no bypass valve, when i knew it was going to rain i would just just remove bottom portion and run a shortram.

Took about 45 seconds to convert to short ram

Oh yeah and get a clutch, what are you talking about rebuilding for?

haha, who says that? "they" = ???

 

whats a good short ram intake to get?

 

whats act clutch do i get.....All i have done to my car is aem intake and Apexi N1 cat back exhaust?
ACT Xtreme Pressure Plate
ACT Super Street Clutch
ACT Prolite Flywheel (8.8lbs)
?
thats what someone told me to get

 

short ram = ebay pipe w/ K&N filter

clutch - depends on how serious you are modding the car

 

Get a compression and leakdown test done, and then come back with the results. If the numbers are ok, there is no need for a rebuild on the engine.

among other things.


run short ram intake, or better yet, just ebay that ****, a mod as simple as a intake tub and filter shouldn't be charged at the price AEM & INJEN does.
