    My teg was totaled... :-(

    I wasn't sure where to put this, but I am looking for some advice on what to do with my now salvage titled 95 RS. I was sandwiched on the highway (relatively lightly) and the front SUV destroyed the hood and bumper and the civic behind ruined the unibody in the back. The engine still runs...

    Electrical issue; no idea, just need a place to start looking

    Long story short, my battery died and has been replaced and the alternator is only 2 years old, but my car has electrical issues like the radio restarting itself and the headlights strobing (not just flickering). Details follow... About 3 weeks ago my alternator pulley bolt/nut came loose and...

    Oil disappeared but came back, now just sounds

    On my way to work I started hearing some grinding/metal rubbing sounds, so I pulled into the nearest parking lot (a church, thankfully). I popped the hood and checked the oil level as it sounded like it ran out of oil. Sure enough the oil level was below the lower dot and I got a ride to work...

    Lights flickering when idle

    I recently changed my radiator fluid and thermostat and have since noticed that my headlights (both high and low) and even my dome light flicker when the car idles. Once I apply gas/air and get the rpms increasing, the flicker stops, but as soon as I let go, they flicker. I just noticed it after...

    New thermostat not working?

    Thermostat/fan issues I just finished replacing my thermostat and hoses. I was filling up the car, started running it to bleed the air out, and two problems occurred: the fans never came on and the temp got to half way (then I shut it off) AND after getting hot, the new coolant started spewing...

    Python Alarm Remote Start Troubleshoot

    I've had my Python 991 installed for a while and the alarm works perfectly fine, except for the remote start. I can get it to start the remote start (you have to turn it on before locking it in order to use it later) but when I get out of the car and lock it, it produces an error and shuts the...

    Trunk latch/light wiring

    I recently discovered that my trunk latch is warped/broken, which is why it doesn't close and lock. I also noticed that there were two prongs with nothing plugged into them, but they too were warped and bent. I know one of them is the trunk trigger and I believe the other is for the light? Can...

    Python alarm - locking problem

    I bought a Python 991 system and I have it all hooked up (minus the tach, brake, and defrost; I plan to do those soon) to my 95 db7RS. Anyway, the alarm works perfectly except that it will not lock my doors. If I arm the alarm, it is alarmed, but the doors do not unlock. If I disarm the alarm...

    Need help with my belts

    My alternator belt recently broke and I was working on fixing it today. I managed to get the power steering belt off but I can't find where or how to get the a/c belt off. I need to get the a/c belt to get the new alt belt on and I thought I found the pivot bolt for the a/c belt, but it was...

    Need help with decision

    I'm 18 and my 95 Integra DB7 is my first car. Because I'm going to college in the fall for mechanical engineering I was hoping to work on my car(s) for the rest of my life. I can't decide whether to work on this car and mod it or to just wait and buy another 2dr Integra in the near future and...

    Complete noob to working on cars and looking for some pointers...

    I'm 18 and I just picked up my first car (a 1995 Integra RS). Because I am going to college for mechanical engineering, I was hoping to work on my car myself without having to go to a mechanic too often. However, I know close to nothing when it comes to working on cars. If anyone has some books...
