1990 Acura Integra GS 2dr hatchback review from North America
"Would definitely buy an Acura again."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Anti-lock break light is on. Breaks still work fine, but ABS doesn't. I hear you just replace a bad sensor.
Passenger seat automatic seat belt does not work. Also heard of the door sensors sticking still going to take a look at it.
Check engine light is on. I check the codes only thing is my O2 sensor easy fix, I think there like 8-18$ at auto zone. Could also be because I have no catyalac converter.
Front left break rotor needs to be resurfaced or replaced.
Had 2 10" kenwood sub woofers in it and it drained my battery and fried my alternator my fault for letting my friend install them and not connecting the remote switch to the CD player.
Had to replace the wheel bearings.
General comments?
This car's engine is AWESOME! With 150hp stock its not bad. Also helps it being a manual.
If you know your cars this is a really easy engine to upgrade! I love working on this car. There are so many performance parts out there for it also.
All the things that have gone wrong with the car are not bad at all especially since the previous owners didn't take care of it at all and always took shortcuts when doing things.
