Best bang for buck
Had a temperature faulty sensor
Had to have injectors serviced
Had clutch replaced.
Very pleased with the performance and handling of the Honda, also comfortable on longer trips as drove across Australia from Brisbane to Perth and back last year.

Can be a lot of fun and nice to look at, but very expensive to repair
Replaced clutch soon after getting the car.
Alternator needed replacing at around 250000km.
Brakes Master Cylinder was leaking when I purchased the car.
Fuel Pump seized recently.
The interior is slowly beginning to wear.
Some small rust spots on roof and front right quarter panel, but paint is in good condition other than that.
Springs and shockers need replacing all round.
Hole in exhaust.
Car handles well when the shockers and tires are good, if they aren't launching the car hard can become very difficult.
Steering is extremely heavy at slow speeds, but it can make for very precise cornering.
The engine is punchy enough for it's size. Would like to do some sort of light tuning to it, but finances just aren't a possibility right now.

Nearly 20years old and still powering on!
The clutch was slipping when I bought it.
The car, in true Honda style, is quite fast considering its capacity. After replacing the clutch I've managed to keep up with most other cars off the lights, but I'm yet to test it from 0-100kmph.
It handles well and is a true treat to take into corners at ridiculous speeds, A lot more fun than the commodore I used to drive.
Unless you red line every gear, fuel consumption isn't an issue and to date I haven't had any mechanical problems.
Although its getting on a bit, the Integra is a great first sports car and are found reasonably cheap (mine was $2500).

Nice, fast, reliable car
Clutch had to be replaced.
Both rear bearings replaced.
A have had problems with starter.
Very nice, spacious and comfortable car.
Although manufactured in 1986, the look is still moderne and sporty.
It has the original blue metallic paint, that looks just like if it was new.
The engine is 1.5, but it has a lot of power, and goes well above 6000. Usually, I have no problem to smoke any 1.6 non-Honda car, that is trying to race with me. And the sound of the engine? Made in Honda, no need to say more.
Interior plastic and seats are deep blue colored and I simply love the small digital clock in the middle of the front panel.
The handling is very good.
Big trunk, easily accessible.
Honda knows well what power and ergonomics does mean.

Our poor clapped out 20 year old Honda has been winning Autocross events in Vic. Australia in modified class (It runs 2nd hand rally tyres which designates it "modified") despite no modification except a pod filter and a straight through exhaust. It's not perfect, but it gets frustrating for others who spent more on tyres than we have on the car.
