Newbie looking for some feedback...
Hey guys, i just registered here today in search of some opinion. I'm looking to get an integra and i think i've found one i want. Its a 99' GS-R. I know the milage is a little high for a 99', but everything else checks out (Carfax, ect...).
Here is a link to the car
It should be the top car on the page.99' Integra GS-R
what are some common problems on this car that you should look for?
what maintenece should be done on a car with this much mileage?
If you guys could give me some feedback, i'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

I'd make sure all this was done prior to purchasing the car. If this has been done, I'd just change the oil and rotate the tires. (Assuming that the tires are in good condition)
90,000 miles/6 yrs Scheduled Maintenance
Replace brake fluid; use Genuine Honda DOT 3.
Replace transmission fluid; use Genuine Honda ATF or MTF.
Replace engine oil.
Rotate tires.
Replace engine oil filter.
Inspect front and rear brakes.
Check pads and discs for wear (thickness) and damage.
Check calipers for leaks and check tightness of mount bolts.
Check parking brake adjustment. Should be fully applied within 6 to 10 clicks.
Inspect tie-rod ends, steering gearbox and rack boots.
Check steering linkage for looseness.
Check fluid lines for damage and leaks.
Check condition of rack boots.
Inspect suspension components.
Check bolts for tightness.
Check condition of ball joint boots for deterioration and damage.
Inspect driveshaft for cracks and check boot bands for tightness.
Inspect brake hoses and lines (including ABS). Check the master cylinder, proportioning controlvalve and ABS modulator for damage and leakage.
Check all fluid levels, condition of fluids and check for leaks. If needed, add transmission fluid, engine coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid.
Inspect cooling system hoses and connections.
Check for damage, leaks and deterioration.
Check for proper fan operation.
Inspect exhaust system. Check catalytic converter heat shield, exhaust pipe, and muffler for damage, leaks, and tightness.

Replace air cleaner element.
Inspect and adjust drive belts.
Check valve clearance when engine is cold.
