  • You want to break it? Go ahead and try...

    Bought mine from a guy I used to work with in 2014. It needed a radiator and a wheel bearing, leaked oil, ripped leather seats, a few dings, and the other standard issues with a 225,000 mile car. I replaced timing belt and water pump, radiator, wheel bearing, camshaft seals, and bought new tires for it. I personally have wrecked it twice (oops) and 60,000 insanely brutal still-leaking-oil, redline it daily, miles later in 2017, the auto transmission decides it doesnt want to pull anymore. Looked for a 5 speed swap for around 4 years while the car sat under a maple tree and attempted to rot away, but money or parts availability was always an issue. Ended up slappin a 4spd GSR tranny in it last year (2021) after my other car decided it needed to start puking all its coolant out through the tailpipe via the cylinder 3 exhaust valve. My Teggy is a true trooper. A new battery, fresh oil change, some gas, and a throttle position sensor was all she needed to drive again. And tires. Its now over 300,000 miles, STILL leaks oil to the point where it look like its on fire from where it drips on the exhaust pipe, and I continue to drive it like I stole it. It really just goes to show that you dont need to be gentle with these beasts. Just remember to keep fluids checked and topped off and keep maintenance up to date. As long as there aren't any major engine performance mods, you can dog these cars everyday and its like they don't care. At least mine doesn't.

  • Most reliable car I have owned

    This car is incredibly reliable. Only routine maintenance is required and it gets very good gas mileage (30 mpg highway). It is also a very good looking car with plenty of storage space when used as true hatchback, i.e. when back seats are down.

  • #1 tuner car

    When it comes to tuner cars the aura Integra is top in its class. This car has good value in the Trenton area. Most likely people need a new, reliable ride for cheap so this car is a good pick.

  • Most reliable and fun car I've owned

    I bought a 4 door GS-R new in 1994 and still drive it daily. Now 18 years old and periodically get some body work done, usual maintainance, but mechanically NO PROBLEMS! Local mechanic cannot get over how slick the shfting is. Have 135,000 miles and thought of giving it to my 17 year old son who is getting his license but decided it's too much car for him.

  • Amazing power, reliability, & style

    Awesome power from 0-145mph with no lag or hesitation. Extremely comfortable for up to 4 (or 5 small) people. More room than many sedans of 2x the weight & bigger size. Very long life, mine was at 150k completely stock & ran 13 seconds on a 1/4 mile. Great resale value & demand. I've owned two '91 Integras, a '93 Integra, and a '96 GS-R. All but my current '91 were stolen, the GS-R the most missed.

  • Fun, Reliable, Good looks, what more do you want?

    I've seriously enjoyed my period of owning one of these vehicles. It's body style still doesn't look outdated, even compared to the newer cars on the road today. It handles like a dream, and it was rated as one of the top 5 best motors of all time, and the best 5 speed manual transmission on a car under i believe 50 grand for its time period. The car is meant to last, I've never had any sort of major problems (regular scheduled repairs only!). The car is 12 years old and still drives like a new car, and looks fantastic. I'm truly going to remember this car for the rest of my life.
