i heard act stage 2 was nice for the street driving. i currently have clutchmaster stage 3 and its for daily driving, both are nice.

 

Thanks to everyone who replied, but the clutch isn't going to matter anymore. About 2 hrs ago my car got t-boned as I was trying to get it home... here's the story:

I left the house trying to visit my girlfriend, but I only made it out of the complex and two blocks down the street before the clutch just stopped working. I could no longer get anything into gear, so I pulled over w/ hazards and called my parents. I also called the g/f to cancel the plans for the day. After getting off the phone and everything I got a lucky break, the car slipped into first gear.

My car is lightweight, so my goal was to try to make a u-turn, get the car facing the right direction, and I'd push it home. Logical enough, right? Well I proceed to move ahead in 1st gear at about 4000rpm w/ my flashers on. There were two-three cars behind me, so I put my hand out the window and moved my finger in a circle attempting to 'signal' my u-turn. I then made the turn.

What I didn't notice is the lady behind me interpreted this as "Go Around", so she smashed directly into my door. I had to crawl out of the car, and I had her pull her car over to a side street. I then pushed mine right behind it, and we made our respective phone calls. She was really nice, and felt really bad about hitting my car. After the police arrived, they took note of everything that happened, and gave me a 400 dollar ticket for an unsafe u-turn, which also puts me at fault for the accident. I just finished the insurance claim and I'll have an adjustor out on Mon. I have pictures... but I'm not feeling all that good so I will upload them another time.

This really sucks...

 

Well... here's the pictures from the accident. Things don't look very good for my car, and w/ liaility insurance, probably aren't going to get much better. It's been one hell of a day, and I'm still trying to decide what to do w/ it. The claims guy will be out on Monday, so I just have some time to think and keep it in my garage for now. I still can't believe this happened...

I won't know for sure until Monday, but I really don't have a good feeling about it. Thanks though, I just still can't believe it happened.

 

Sorry to hear about that man, i like your car alot. **** dude unless there is some bad frame damage that wont be totaled. I dont know how much a new door would cost but i think you could definitely get it up and running again. Good luck brother.

 

Damn dude, that totally sucks ***. Your DA looked hella clean too . Good luck man...

 

Ouch. That sucks. Is it fixable or is the chassis too tweaked?

I'm sorry if I didn't clarify, but it hasn't been "totaled" by the insurance company yet. It just looks like it to me. From the people who saw it (I had a small audience of my dad's biker friends) they say that one of the main support rails that goes from the roof to the bottom is bent. If you look at the picture w/ the sideways angle from the back you can almost see it. Also, with the interior, I've always kept the seats down and on one side there is a 2"+ gap between the seats and the edge and they are now wedged on the other side. It's pretty bad for such low mileage...

Thank you, and I'm feeling a lot better today now that I've been out and about. I'm still trying to figure out what to do, but for one thing I know I'm going to show up in court. I'm willing to admit to the illegal u-turn, but I was distressed and in an unusual situation, so I think the fine is a little much. I'm also working w/ my parents looking for a new car, and I would love to get another DA. The engine and entire front clip is still in perfect condition, and I loved working w/ this car. If I don't, I may just part the car out eventually...

Well it might come out like that... but I'm really not sure. Monday will be the "Judgement Day" for my baby, and I will see from there. Thanks again for all the support everyone, I've had the car and been on this board for about a year, and I learned a lot from everyone. I started out knowing absolutely nothing, and I was progressively learning as time went by. I might benefit now though by having a motor I can pull and attempt to take apart and put back together.

 

I'll pour out some liquor for the DA... sorry to see that.. f'in shitty half-wagon.

I don't mind taking some pictures, I just wanted to leave everything in the same condition until the insurance people looked at it. Afterwards I'm going to try to get the door off and assess further. I can try to take pictures of the underside if I can jack it up, but it doesn't want to go anywhere because the clutch went out right before this (which is what caused it).

True, and that's why I'm thankful and trying to think positive. The entire front clip is ok, so at least I have an engine to play with.

Yea... it was the biggest surprise I've gotten for Christmas. Good news is I'm trying to track down another one of these in Vegas.

If anybody has a 90-93 (preferrably 92-93) Integra for sale in the Las Vegas-ish area, please contact me!

I was talkin to my dad about that... and honestly even though this was my first car, it is definitely one of my favorites as far as the imports go. I love the boxier body style and had so many plans for my car, and that means I just need to find another one to continue it on.

g2 =

I'm just gonna miss the LS-S... almost as rare as the GS-R lol...

 

new project

 

It looks like all you need is a door from the pictures. I cant tell if anything is bent up or not though. Good luck, and make sure your back really really hurts.
