I bought a 95 gsr about 2 months ago now from an older man. the car was driven by his wife who died a year ago and the guy also works at and had all the service done at the dealership i work at. he told me his wife drove it nicely and had all the scheduled maintenance up to 117k, i thought that the car would be fine for another 50 to 75k no problem.
i bought it for 6500, put on a header, apex world sport exhaust etc. at 120k now im noticing clouds behind me when i get on it a little. i haven’t beaten on it excessively and im pissed. i would think a honda engine that hasent been beaten on and regularly maintained rings' would hold up a little longer than 120k. i don’t feel like pulling the goddamn motor and putting new rings in cause its not worth the money and im not confident enough to do it myself, nor do i have the time. just wondering:
a) what mileage you think this thing should start to smoke?
b ) do you think i got shafted?
c) sell it or fix it?
im done crying now. just thought id vent cause none of my friends around here know anything bout cars.
