1998 Acura Integra GS review from North America
"Best car I've ever driven.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only issue that I've had with my car so far is the clutch. A piece of the clutch broke off and was bouncing around between the clutch disc itself and the pressure plate... Obviously I drive this car pretty hard and abuse it a bit.
General comments?
This is a GREAT car for a first car or a second, third, fourth... You get the point... This car is much faster and better handling than I thought it would be. Tires spin in second and sometimes third gear while speed shifting, GREAT handling at high speeds, comfortable while driving, and not to mention sexy as hell. I plan on putting a lot of money into my car with after market parts such as a vtec engine swap, turbo, hi-flow cataltyic converter, short ram intake, cat-back exhaust, and so on. This is a great car, and pretty powerful for its size.
Only thing I can say is if your as into the car as I am and want more horsepower... Swap to a DC2 (Type R) or a H22 (Stock Prelude)
