1993 Acura Integra RS review from North America
"So far, a costly upgrade!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1. Clutch.
2. Seal between the transmission & the engine (7 hours to take out the transmission = $$$$).
3. Water pump.
4. Ring gear corroded?
General comments?
Very, very quick car for a 4 cylinder. But I'm
sort of disappointed with the reliability so far... I hope for my wallet's sake that Acura's good name will live up to my expectations!
