The fuel lines failed after about 10,000km, but that was from the previous owner.
Close ratio gears can become quite annoying on long trips, when traveling at speeds 100+.
I have lowered the car since owning as well as replacing the alloys with 16x50x205 and makes the car fly around the corners of the race tracks.
The car does not respond very well to modifications since it has been quite highly tuned from factory.
With a large K&N filter, 2in exhaust and several tweaks to the standard ecu the car is producing around 100hp at the wheels which is quite good for a N/A 1.6 liter engine.
It also sounds beautiful on 98 Ron gas while at high revs.
I also own this car, and its obvious you know nothing about it, first of all it's an XSi, it already produces more than 100hp at the wheels from factory. The factory ECU cannot be tweaked, you need a new chip.
Close ratio box revs too 8000rpm, at 100kph its doing 3500rpm, that's less than half of max, how many cars doo 100 at less than half revs?
And how can the fuel lines wear out from the previous owner?
Just research before typing, that way you don't sound so dumb.
My mum's piece of crap laser does 100 at 3000 revs, and it goes up to 8000. 3500 for 100km/h isn't that great, but its still sweet for an old car.
So with this model integra do you have to change out of gears early? and can the engine take a beating if you want to rev it really high?
