Acura Integra?

I have a '95 Acura Integra LS non v-tec, I need some advice on cheap mods I can begin to put into the engine. I have alrady put cold air into it.

admin answers:

Best cheap mods are: Making sure car is up on maintenace; i.e. Stock type NGK spark plugs and wires ($50), correct timing (slight advance may help a little on the high end)(autozone rents for free), clean fuel filter ($12). Of course timing belt and water pump, and all other non-power adding necessities.

On to the mods:

Since you already have an intake. (make sure it is a good, CLEAN filter)

Highflow catalytic converter (175 installed). Or gutted / race cat (free, but off road use only)

Next, high flow exhaust custom @ muffler shop 2.25 is plenty big for non-turbo cars. ($120-200), of bolt on cat-back ($350-600)

Then, header, small primaries and large collecter variety. These tend to extract the most power ($75-500).

This is a good start. You may consider other things like clutch (250-450) Gripforce.com has 'em for cheap and they are good!

Underdrive / lightened pullies and flywheels too.

Hope it helps,
KC

acura integra?

is acura integra good for used cars? I want to buy a used acura integra thats been ran for 150000km..should I?How long will it last?
is it good for 1st car driver?

admin answers:

They are a mechanically reliable, fuel efficient car. I used to own an 01 Mustang GT, and I actually like my 92 Integra better. They handle like they are on rails. The Integra became the RSX here in the United States (sounds like you are in a different country than I am). It's a good car for a first driver. Just take good care of it and it will last a while.

admin answers:

Ebay, but watch out for that shipping price. Just do a search on 94 Acura Integra. For body kits, you tend to get what you pay for, try andys autosport or racerwheel.

Mary asks…

Why does the acura integra gsr vtec engine have an inner and outter valve spring for the intake?

Why does the acura integra gsr vtec engine have an inner and outter valve spring for the intake?

Does this have something to do with the vtec component, i.e once a certain rpm is hit, it does somethign different with the intake valves?

admin answers:

A single spring looses coil tension over the life of the engine. Two springs share the stresses and prolong the action of the springs' performance. And yes, they help to prevent "valve floating" at high RPMs.
