I bought another integra. One year newer than my current VSM integra. Anyways, so after a long and hard ownership with my integra from throwing a rod to blowing all four struts and nearly jumping out of my car every time I drive it, I found this while searching for a shell.
Its a 1997 Acura Integra LS with 169k miles, five speed, frost white. It runs great, however, it does not drive. I believe either the clutch disc and/or throwout bearing are stuck engaged, causing the car to make an unbearable metal on metal scratching/grind sound when you turn the engine on, and it will not go in gear if you press the clutch in, which is spongy at best.
The body is in decent shape, better than my old one. Couple small dents I can pop out on the fender and trunk lid, no big deal. The passenger side door currently will not open, haven't gotten the chance to figure that out yet. The interior is all there, however all of the vents are painted white and the center console is in shambles so that will be getting swapped with mine. The carpet could use a good wash. The front seat is ripped at the side.
It has keyless entry but the only button that works is the unlock button. It will not lock with the FOB. Will have to find out what kind it has and figure that out. The cam seal is leaking so will have to replace that. The mirrors are aftermarket and ugly so will have to swap mine to it. Right now that's all I can think about that's wrong with it.
All of that aside, I paid $740 for it before the tags. Just ordered a clutch and will be ordering a slave cylinder tomorrow, and possibly a master cylinder for shits and gigs next week. Hoping to get it on the road in two weeks when I come home from college for spring break.
Anyways, here's some more pics. These are all I have. It was too dark when I get it to take pictures and the whether has been shitty so I'll take more when it gets better.
