Heya all, i was definately looking for some advice.  At the moment, I own a 92 Integra GS, been working on it a bit, was saving up for turbo/motor swap..  but i figure id be better off with a dsm.  Ive always loved them.  

bleh i hit enter by accident, anyway, so far this ones local, and he says the only problem with it are minor scratches and paints oxidizing on the roof.

he wants around 6000, has 97k miles, i dont know much about the dsm motors, and how long they run, but i could use advice.

lemme know if its a good deal hehe

wow buy buy buy.  i got a fully stock with 10k less miles for 5400.  that with all the mods is a steal as long as its not crappy installs if you know what i mean.  take it around the block a few times and make sure it don't blow up and then buy it

awesome response time! --  hehe i can only hope, well see what the price settles at, and how long do the motors run?  where are you located, well your car? and is it auto trans or  5spd?

cant wait to own my first dsm =)

hes looking for around 7500 for it, whats a reasonable price in yall opinion?

anything below that is a steal and that is a good deal so go for it and you should get another 50k out of it if you take care of it. ÂÂ* i got a 94 delsol in california stick all the way

very nice deal. congrats.

seriously im jellous

I just got back from checking that eclipse out..  well..  it looks like its leaking oil out of the head, near the exaust manifold, he said it was really greasy, i dont know..  What would be the cause of that?  Cracked piston?

he said it leaks sometimes, but he never sees a drop in oil on the dipstick, any ideas?  My father thinks the turbo is pushing too much pressure and causing oil to leak out, but its just an assumption, any ideas?

bummer. ÂÂ*hence the price. ÂÂ*im seeing an extra...umm 1500 to fix your cracked engin block or piston...oil anywhere but IN the engine is never ever super dooper ever never good. ÂÂ*makes a mess and basically is like a flesh wound without a bandaid. ÂÂ*obviously its not "really greasy" so find out whats really going on. ÂÂ*or you could take your chances and assume the worst. ÂÂ*fixing a car is half the fun of having one anyway. ÂÂ*just don't expect a perfect used car ever.  i say buy and figure it out.  he won't let you take it to a shop i bet so no official diag.  just go for it and hold your breath.

yeh i think im gonna get it, btw my screenname is decepticawn, if possible id like to talk to you on aim some time, get some more info..  Last time i couldnt respond quick enough sorry about that.

well im niceguyriceguy so i sent you a few messages but your not there.

sorry im rarely home, you can reach me on autobawts!

im asuming your tron and i have no idea what autobots is cept for the transformer type.  also get a membership already to track your posts its fun

There is no such thing as a stage 3 port job on a turbo...they go by A/R's and wheel sizes [this is on the cold side]..on the hot side..clipped turbines go by degrees...And if its just greasy....its probably a pcv thing if the car doesnt have a catch can installed..thats no big deal..you would have alot more to contest with that a little grease if you had a cracked head..and a piston will not cause external oil leakage[that is unless it puts a hole in the block for you]..just lower compression numbers and such....g/l with the purchase..

been rootin for this guy for like 2 weeks now just buy it already!

yeh i already bought it heh, but the boost controller went out since ive had it.  And the leak, might be coming from the camshaft, i dont really know, were taking it to the mechanics.  the guy said hed give me money back after i got estimates.  Anyway, as for Autobawts , its my other aim screenname on my cell heh, you can reach me on that

lol that sucks oh well at least he isn't being a dick about it get a memberthingy so we can keep up with you
