'91-'92 Integra -Cheap & Need help to figure exact Model

Hey all, I just got what I think is a 1001 Acura Integra. It is a 2-door Hatchback. It has a good Honda motor, Fast. I am pretty sure it's 1.8L & it's a 4 cylinder I know for sure. It's DOHC and I believe it to be the best motor built for those cars in those few years or so, but I am new to acura and its just what i've heard. It also has DOHC pressed into the molding , that small piece fits in-between the back of the front wheel and the start of the front door.... I dont know if that even matters. It has the 5-spoke silver rims. There's cruise control, moonroof, foglights, rear wiper, a/c. It's an automatic transmission and along with drive, there's a button on the side of the center consoles shift lever. so you can shift into S3 and S4 along with 1 or 2 lower gears and drive (dont think O/d but not positive. have been away from home & not driven car much yet). It also has like a lower grill with kinda ram air, or just cut-outs in design +foglights stock.

Let me know if you can help at all. thanks

The 1990-1993 models all looked the same which the models where, RS, LS ,GS and then the GSR which had the sportier engine, 160hp apposed to the 130hp which the other models had. My first car was a 92 LS, white, stick, which it was a 1.8L DOHC. I actually just got rid of it, 340'000km on it because i kinda upgraded to a 2003 CL TypeS 6Speed.

Here's the pic of mine:



What are you looking for, which model your running? The only difference between the RS, LS, and GS are options. Meaning, AIR, Leather (GSR)...etc. Again, the GSR had the bigger engine.

Hope this helps a bit

EDIT to above

Hey all, I just got what I think is a 1991 Acura Integra. It is a 2-door Hatchback. It has a good Honda motor, Fast. I am pretty sure it's 1.8L & it's a 4 cylinder I know for sure. It's DOHC and I believe it to be the best motor built for those cars in those few years or so, but I am new to acura and its just what i've heard.

---->OK after what little info I can see, I really think its a 1992 GSR. I found some pics and the front shot of the car looks the sam I think, and the interior is identical. Here's the link, sorry its so long....

Is that your car thats posted, or it something that looks like yours? Including all the mods done to it. Exterior visually i dont think you can tell which model your driving unless you looked at the back which sported the initials. If you have leather, then its definately a GS or GSR. Seeing that its auto, good chances its a GS. I think the GSR's only came manual... but im not entirely sure. Its been so long.

92-93 gsr did not come leather, That was 94+. Also it is possible it is a real gsr. Hard to see but the elctrical connectors are grey. 90-91 are yellow. No H on the value cover its possible its the 1.7 vtec, but anyone could change that. But most people change the american value cover with no H to the one from Japan with the H.(been around way to much honda's )
