Integra talk
I just sort of wanted to say what i just found out about my integra.
Well i went up to my local goodyear to have the front end of my 91 integra checked out. I myself thought it was alignment but after waiting for 20 min a guy came out of a door and told me that I need a lower control arm. I though, OK, no big deal. 5 min later another guy came out and told me to come and look at something so I went out into the shop were my car was in the air. One man held up a light at were my control arm connects to my lower sub frame and another guy moved the wheel. Well the control arm had a whole inch of play were it connects to the sub frame!! I was like holy shit and all he said was ya holy shit alright. He wanted to charge me 2g's to fix it and then he told me that he would have to charge me to tow it home because it would be illegal to drive it on a public road. So i took my car and tore outa that place like I was never even there. So that's my story....

Re: Integra talk
Wow...That happen to one of my buddy integra also. DAng 2g, that's crazy. You can do it yourself. Man if you would got this check out like couple days ago, I would of just gave you my control arm to you for free, but instead I throw it in the black integra that I just sold today. Good luck man. Need anything let me know.

Re: Integra talk
What you may also want to know, is that Honda in all their power and wisdom to save money made all of the 91 integras with only 4 sets of keys. So basically, you can take your key and if you find another 91 integra, you have a 1 in 4 chance the key will work. My buddy found that out the hard way, when his integra was stolen with no trace of forced entry. After talking with some people we found out that FF, or Fun Fact for the ackronym challenged.
