Used Car of the Day: 1995 Acura Integra Turbo
Today we bring you a 1995 Acura Integra Turbo.
This Pennsylvania-based car has 185K miles on the chassis but just 5K on the engine.
It's also modified up the wazoo.
The mods include a L/S VTEC conversion, performance cylinder head, forged rods and pistons, a Garret turbo, upgraded manifolds, performance exhaust, upgraded radiator and hoses, Bosch injectors, a tune, a Type R wing, front lip spoiler, side skirts, lowering springs, 16-inch wheels, Tokico shocks, and more.
It's a long list and we just hit the highlights.
The seller says the only issue is that the transmission occasionally pops out of fifth gear.
The asking price is $10,000. Click here for more.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Love the exterior color and wheels, much to my surprise. Wish there were more photos. Way more fun than the Suburban today.

Please take this seriously. I honestly believe that you are a mentally distressed person and I hope you get the help that you need. Seriously...the addiction to this site and anger that you channel through it is a serious red flag. I hope for your sake and the people who love you that you get the help that you need.
Am sure that you probably realize this, but if some random person (I am not an active contributor and made this profile just for this message) take the time to address your problem...you would probably be wise to seek professional help.
An Autumn Orange Time Bomb! Just in time for fall color drives...
MEH. I never liked the 2nd Gen Integra to begin with. I don't find the orange paint off-putting but the gold wheels need to go. The other issue besides the transmission is the engine. if it was professionally built fine, but the presentation leaves less to be desired. If the engine is the jewel the owner makes it out to be, it should show. Nothing in the engine bay is clean or polished. I question the "engineering" of the exhaust manifold, turbo and cooling system.
