1996 Acura Integra review

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.
