Looking for a 1994-1997 Integra. What was the additional equipment that came with the LS package over the RS?

 

power windows, locks, etc.
not sure which year u got the mesh's in

 

From 94 to 97, the RS did not come with ABS, nor did it come with a sunroof. The RS rolled on steel wheels (14 x 5.5"). The side mouldings and mirrors were black instead of body-color. AC was optional

The LS had the option of 15" alloys, it had a standard sunroof, standard ABS, body color mirrors & mouldings. AC was standard as well.

The RS is the bottom rung on the Integra model line up. The only advantage is weight, but the savings aren't all that fantastic... 2529 for a manual RS, compared to 2643 for a manual LS.

Lastly, if you have any intention of increasing the horsepower output of your DC4 (that's the chassis code for 3rd Gen non-VTEC Integra Coupes), BUY A MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAR.

The automatic transmissions are quite fragile and the conversion process kills resale value.

With all that out of the way, welcome to HAN. :cheers: Enjoy your stay.

 

Thanks. Hopefully I'll unearth a good one!

Are there any specific items to check on these cars, besides the regular stuff?

 

The keys to a long-lasting Honda are:
a) being religous about preventative maintenance.
b) using a quality oil and filter
c) changing the oil regularly -- no longer than 7500 miles.

My advice to you is to only look at cars with documented service histories. If the owner isn't sufficiently organized to save maintenance reciepts, how well do you think they treated the car?

In terms of "must-do's" -- there is one big one..

* Every 90K miles or six years -- new timing belt, water pump & tensioner. *

Absolutely critical, this one. If the belt snaps with the motor running, pistons will hit valves. If the water pump siezes, the belt may shear or jump. If the tensioner goes slack, so too will valve timing. All of these outcomes will ruin your day.

Other than that, look for regular oil changes, coolant flushes and so on.
