1992 Acura Integra GS-R
86,000 Actual Miles
NO RUST
This is the only 1992/1993 Acura Integra on Ebay and is the only one that has been on here in a very long time.
Here is your chance!
History on the Acura Integra GS-R:
The Acura Integra GS-R model was first developed in 1992. It was only available in the second and third generation Integras.
The 2nd generation Integra GS-R model is equipped with a 1.7 liter VTEC (variable valve timing) engine which is capable of 170 horsepower.
The GS-R was the second car, after the Acura NSX, to get the VTEC engine. In the 1990s, the Integra GS-R was one of the most powerful non-turbocharged 4-cylinder cars available in the American market.
Information about the VTEC Engine:
VTEC engines are known to be reliable, so reliable that Honda or Acura has never had a warranty claim on the VTEC systems. The Specific engine that is in the Integra GS-R is known as the B18C1. The GS-R came equipped with a dual-stage intake manifold, ported exhaust manifold and a displacement increase from the second generation. The Variable valve timing technology was developed to get max power out of an engine yet still maintain reliability. The GS-R has a specific revolution per minute (rpm) where the VTEC will engage. When VTEC engages the camshaft lobes that are designed for lower rpm will switch over to the camshaft lobes that are designed more for higher rpm’s. VTEC is a solution for reliability and performance.
Production Numbers and rarity of this Integra:
Lets just say this took weeks and weeks and weeks to figure out. The following figures are based on running vins until they stop in sequence. Finally, I discovered that the rarest color was teal, with only 400 produced between the two years. To further speak to its rarity, aside from the low production numbers, this car came from the factory as teal.
1992 GSR (USA)
3120 (#000001 and #000002 unaccounted for) = 3118
1993 GSR (USA)
851 (#000001 unaccounted for) = 850
USA Total: = 3968
1992 GSR (Canada)
602 = 602
1993 GSR (Canada)
256 (#800001 unaccounted for) = 255
Canadian total: = 857
Total North American GS-R Production = 4825
That brings the total to 4825 (accounted for by Carfax)
Information on this particular Acura Integra GS-R:
This is a super rare and highly desirable Acura Integra GS-R. The original owner did the paint and body kit in the early 2000's. He trailered it to car shows once the paint and body were completed and put very few miles on it between then and the time he sold it to the second owner a couple of years ago. This vehicle has the original VTEC motor and transmission in it. Only 86,000 actual miles. It runs and shifts absolutely perfect. A thing to note about a worn VTEC motor, is the VTEC won't actually engage when it is supposed to, this VTEC engages flawlessly. The motor is bone stock with the exception of an air intake. The transmission is bone stock. The exhaust is after market and sounds excellent. This GS-R has not been beat on and has always been maintained to the highest standards. The interior on the vehicle is bone stock with the exception of a 6 CD changer mounted in the glove box, after market CD player, and different shift knob. There are no cracks anywhere in any of the plastic. No rips or tears in any of the seats. The headliner is perfect. Everything works perfect. AC, heat, sunroof, power windows, power door locks, cruise control, high beams, low beams, turn signals, and brake lights. This vehicle has never seen a winter and has never had any rust. There are no dents or dings on the body, which speaks to how well this vehicle has been stored and cared for. I took the vehicle out of storage to only take pictures. There was no expense spared on the custom paint job and body kit. The engine bay and door jams were all carefully painted. This Acura sports custom KONIG wheels and tires, that give it a great street look. The wheels are in perfect shape, no pitting or curb rash($380/wheel). The front left headlight has a few splintering cracks, and there are two blemishes which came from rock chips on the front right part of the hood.
You will be hard pressed to find another GS-R with these low of miles and history. Most of these cars have 200,000 miles on them or have been wrecked. I wouldn't be surprised if this GS-R is one of the lower mile ones still on the road and in existence. Excellent car to drive and enjoy, bring to car shows, or add some performance to under the hood. If you know this motor, you'll probably have a ton of fun doing that. I have put a very low reserve on this car. Please ask any and all questions. You will not be disappointed.
Thank you and Happy Bidding!

2021 Acura TLX A-Spec Long-Term Update | Infotainment system hits a pothole
Tue, Apr 13 2021The first few thousand miles of motoring in our 2021 Acura TLX A-Spec long-term test car were problem-free, but that changed after we took it on a spirited drive through the winding hills of southern Indiana. You can read about how it handled a full day of thrashing here, but this story will focus on the dead infotainment system previewed in the headline. About halfway through the twisty route, every sizable pothole or big bump in the road would cause the infotainment system to black out. A message would appear declaring “MOST NET LOSS,” and it would quickly dip to black after that. The next big pothole would cause it to flicker back on, but it never remained on for any long periods of time after this. In addition to the screen loss, the speakers would make some rather disturbing crackling noises. This continued throughout the day and for several days beyond that. If the roads I was driving on were flat or devoid of major problems, the infotainment system would generally be fine. It took a major jostling of the carÂ’s bones to cause it to act up, but Michigan provided enough of those to make the problem exceedingly annoying in a hurry. So, to the dealership it went. 2021 Acura TLX A-Spec View 51 Photos After the local dealer looked it over, they said there was a TSB out for this issue, and that theyÂ’ve seen it pop up on other RDXs and TLXs already. Turns out, there are a number of wire connectors between the infotainment system and wiring harness that are causing the problems and coming loose. The fix? Newly designed connectors from Acura, plus the wiring harness is ever so slightly freed up to allow for a bit of movement from violent impacts. Doing this (plus using the stronger new connectors) should ensure that the stress on these connectors is never so great as to cause issues again. The job was completed under warranty and took a full day from diagnosis to the return of the car. WeÂ’ve put several hundred miles on the car since the fix, and theyÂ’ve been completely trouble-free — it sure was nice to listen to AcuraÂ’s excellent ELS audio system again. That said, this issue is one weÂ’ll follow closely to see if AcuraÂ’s fix truly is a long-term solution. WeÂ’ll have a deeper dive on how AcuraÂ’s TouchPad infotainment system works (now that itÂ’s actually working again) soon, so watch out for that update in the near future. You will be able to find all other posts on our Long-Term 2021 Acura TLX page. Related:

2015 Acura TLX driving to be a 'red carpet athlete' [w/video]
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Herein lies the broom that will sweep away both the TL and the TSX, and its name is the Acura TLX Prototype. Proposed as a "red carpet athlete," the production midsize TLX will slot in between the ILX and RLX range-topper in the brand's sedan lineup while presenting its take on "luxury refinement and sports-sedan athleticism with exhilarating performance."
Custom five-spoke alloys on low-profile tires support a sedan full of design cues honed on other Acura models, including a chiseled hood and exaggerated fender lines with shorter overhangs (the TLX is 3.8 inches shorter than but has the same wheelbase as the TL), all draped in Athletic Red Pearl paintwork. Acura's Jewel Eye headlights get a supporting act from the side mirrors, where a strip of LEDs light up dynamically when the turn signal is used.
The TLX's upscale powertrain option will be a direct-injected 3.5-liter V6 with cylinder deactivation, paired with a new nine-speed automatic.
