1994 Honda Integra Si VTEC review from UK and Ireland
"Animal"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The VTEC was giving trouble kicking in, but this turned out to be because it became low on oil. It seems excessively using VTEC when the car is not fully warmed up burns a hell of a lot of oil.
Water leaks into the boot from rear light clusters. Brake fluid warning light/hand brake light comes on when I dog the engine, must be bad connection in fluid reservior.
General comments?
Considering my previous car this was always going to feel like a bullet.
I couldnt be happier than at around 6000rpm when the vtec kicks in. theres an induction kit aswell so the vtec wail is even more pronounced. And boy does the integra move.
Only bad points are high cruising rpms, it could use a 6th gear.
Noisy ride when cruising & poor fuel consumption due to high rpms.
Handles great.
