gsr with 180..wise to buy?

do you think i should buy a 97 integra gsr with 180k on it for $5000?

no, i wouldnt do it. I see 95 Integras here with 100K for $5000. You just need to look in the right places and you will find one. That motor is almost at the end of its life.

however i thinking about asking that down to $3000 or so..then drive it until it dies..then do a GSR swap for it...i got a friend that can do that and it will cost me nuttin..in the end it would all come out to be the same price..bc i dun want to drive far to look for the car....

well the motor will definitley run, just make sure it was maintained well for having that many miles. Ive seen them go over 200K, but you just have to be careful.

if you can get it for $3k , then get it! What you should do is buy NOS and blow the hell out of it.. get 1 good run down the track at 13-14 sec... then, after they ban you for oil slicking the whole track you can get a tow truck to tow you home and then start work on the new motorswap. :screwy:

the blue book on that same integra with 180K is $6665. So i guess $5K isnt a bad price, the mileage is just kinda high.

damn 180k miles for a 97? wtf was going on there? i mean my 98 civic is only got 43k miles on it. i would not buy that car if i was u.

if it runs good, it really doesnt matter. One of the thing i WOULD do is a compression check tho.
