Sorry the pictures suck...
1994 Acura Integra LS Original Engine 239,906 Miles
I bought this car from a guy that i worked with about one year ago. It had some front end damage where his girl had ran over top of a parking block and ripped the entire bumper cover up over the headlights. He also told me that it needed a new clutch and flywheel because it wouldn't go into gear. Sold it to me for $200.
I was going to use it just for a parts car to do a B18B swap and rear disc swap into my 97 Civic EX. I got it towed home and realized the clutch and flywheel problem was as simple as bleeding the clutch. ;D
Took the front end off and all it needed was to be attached on strait again.
My wife, who was against me getting this car in the first place, started driving the car all the time and i lost my parts car. :-\ It still beats the ---- out of a new car payment...

Allmost a quarter of a million miles on it and it doesn't burn oil or smoke at all. Still wish the B was in my civic. :'(

'89 Civic DX, 289K miles. After driving it for seven months without a rear motor mount bolt I finally installed one, she runs mint.

I'll see if I can get a decent odo pic with the cell on the way to school in the morning.

The hatch needs a tune up. I started a new job that is 47.9 miles away.
95.8 miles each day is going to add up.
Luckily the drive is against traffic and it takes the same drive time as the last job. Just more scenery flying by.
Would a slightly taller tire size help with gas mileage for freeway driving?
