    📌 Thanks for stopping by! I still can't believe we were able to rescue this car. This generation of Integras are so hard to come by these days, especially a GSR. I loved the story behind this car and couldn't pass up the opportunity. Stay tuned for more updates on this car as we tackle putting this back on the road! Or at least make it tastefully clapped. 🥴

    If the hatch doesn’t open because the actuator is bad, there is a tiny little plastic piece inside the actuator that breaks causing it to fail. There is a sliding door actuator from a honda odyssey that has the exact same internals as the hatch actuator, so you can swap it over and it should fix your issue. I did on my 98 about a month ago and it works great

    A GS-R or Type R is a dream car I've wanted since I was a kid. Its rare to find decent example of either or locally these days. When I say local, I mean 2-4 hours of driving across 2 or 3 states lol. Seeing as you live in Washington state, you have a better shot at finding a clean one. Coat the underside in lanolin fluid (fluid film) to be on the safe side.

I even took pictures of it and I got to say this car was really minty but seeing those seats cracked and with the current mileage it's at. It added up some almost 18k miles in a yr because i remember it being in the 110,000's. Also the shift boot is not the same because it had red stitching
