I just Picked up a 1993 Acura integra Ls. Details: 5sp Manual, 2 door coupe, 193,xxx Miles, Lowered 4", Engine Stock. This thing is in great shape. Well when you look at it. Runs great!. Anyway now to the problems xD.
First thing I noticed Right away was That On the Drivers Side rear end it sat really low. I figured the strut was broken or the coil was worn out. or the coil mount broke. So i Jack it up, take the wheel off. Unbolt the top of the strut. Disconnect the strut from the control arm blah blah. Ok its off. Hmm coil mount was the shittiest thing i have ever seen. Ractive lowering coil / struts. Eww. there were 3 alan screws that held the coil mount in place and i could only get one to hold it in place. so i shoved a washer in there. PROBLEM SOLVED! i think? good enough lol. Then taking the rear end apart. lol rear end. I noticed all of the bushings were toast. I ordered new ones. Thats that with that problem.
Next,
On my way home from picking up the car, it was pouring down raining and it was cold. So the windows fog up Ok i turn the heat on and the defroster. Hmm heats coming out but wait! Its not blowing the heat out. I think its the fan nob or the heater blower motor you tell me.
3rd,
Ok you know those annoying seat belts that slide forward when you open the door. Ok yeah well i like them so dont hate. But they dont work. i checked the fuses no cigar xD. Help?
Last,
Ok. so the passenger window sometimes rolls down goes up slowly and the drivers side never does ether. thats a problem. I took the door panels off and well yeah thats as far as i got. i unplugged some wire that looks like it connects to the window motor. and it was full of water =O maybe it short circuited the motor? idk but its going to be a pain in the ass to get too or replace. This one i dont even know what to do so, any help is greatly appreciated. Im a student in high school and cant show off a car that has problems. xD. And its nice to just have a car that works right haha.
The reason these are urgent is because i go back to school in a week. I wanna fix my car before then. Also im waiting for the bushings to come in the mail and my cars apart already so might as well fix the other problems ehh?
Thats all so far i will keep you updated. I been browsing this forum for quite a few days now, i have problems with my car so i figured i would join and post. Thanks And please any answers are appreciated.
no flames xD
Here is some pics of my trade. BTW i traded a 91 4x4 ranger piece of shit for this car xD
This is the night i got the car.
Rims baby. Its funny because these are the same ones my mom has on here 2006 ford escape. Hers are crome tho. xD
If you look in the rear above the wheel you can see that its way low.
Also i think its slightly low in the front to. but ill just adjust the coil height
