Hers my car fellas I have a 1990 Acura Integra with a 1998 LS Non-vtec and was just posting some pics for some feed back on what you guys think i just paid $1200 bucks for the car and had to buy a tranny($200) and then cv axels($100) and the all the other maintnence required like tune up in that nature. Now, the flip side to it is that i blew the motor because i had spun a bearing on the highway droping a friend off. Now it has a freshly rebuilt 98 LS and now that is costing me money cause i already have paid $900 for the motor itself and then got it started and the timing was off on the intake side by 4 or 5 teeth and now i have a bent valve so now this week i have to rebuild the head and replace all the intake valves ($65) cause exhaust is fine and the after that she will be on the road again. Oh yeah and have to by ball joints ($250 upper and lower on both sides) and tie rod ends($50 ea.) and have to have the exhaust rebent ($65) because the tow truck dude bent my shit puting it on the flat bed but thats a whole different story. Do u thing its worth keeping? here some pics of it.

dont't give up now. that sucks you have to pull the motor apart but it's worth doing.
