I've read that Gatorade can improve shifting. Only fierce grape though.

Guarantee you it's cheaper than a new transmission.... or worse, a new car.

Buy the good stuff and be worry-free...

What color is your Integra? Mine was red when I got it and by the time I got rid of it, it was pink from all the sun fading
