How many KM's?

[StrawberryFace]

hey guys, im just wondering what is the average KM's for a 94-95 Vti-r and if so what would be the absolute maximum kilometres these cars can withstand before needing an engine rebuild. Not taking into account how the car was driven ofcourse.

[Felix]

Id say a good low amount of KMs for a 95 would be about 110 000KMS. My December 97 has 95 000KMS.
I recon anything with above 140 000kms stay clear of.
Ive heard of people with DC2ś with 220 000kms.

My '99 has 76,000k's, bro's '97 126,000, mates '97 110,000. When looking for mates car recently we found a '94 with amazingly 84,000 and a '95 with 94,000.
Average I would say is 130,000 -160,000.

140 000kms
is just run in for a honda

[medo]

anyone know how many k's they can do before requiring a rebuild?

[acura]

if it does require a engine rebuild, how much is that likely to cost....

[typicalmale]

generally you calculate it as 15000km per year on average.
anything around there is good :thumbsup:

according to redbook for a 95' teg vti-r,
Average kms: 120,000 - 140,000
Trade in price guide: $9,600 - $11,500
National average price - private sale: $11,100 - $13,900

so there you go hope that helps :D

Felix, think your being a bit optimistic!

95 model is 10 years old. Just to give you a fair idea. When I was looking for cars 4.5 years ago...100K or less was good.

If you work on average driver, drives 20 - 25K a year, then you'll see majority of 95 tegs will be over 200K. I think 15K a year, is very optimistic - especially if you live in sydney lol....

Mine's at 180K atm, because the last couple of years, I haven't driven as much, but know many people with similar aged cars well over 200K.

I guess it depends on how far you drive to work, etc.

When i was looking there was a few 94, 96, 96 , 97s (gsi's and VTIR's) with around 100 000kms.
its optimistic but its ideal when buying.

[sAimOns]

good question .. ummz i rkns around 90k to 100k would be ideal if u were looking for a used car .. about the max amount of kms before a rebuilt .. i heard from somewhere around 200-250k u would need one .. buh not sure where i heard it from

[kOncept]

as said before average Ks per year are 20,000

my friend has a '95 Vti-R with a GENUINE 80,000kms on it, a damn fine example of a dc2, serviced every 5000kms, full log books, service history, he got an RACQ inspection done on it and it was 100% perfect and you know how picky those guys are, he was gonna sell it for 16000 and the buyer couldn't get finance for it

haha, I'm kinda glad he didn't sell it for that cheap tho would've regretted it in the end... :honda: :honda: :honda:

true that, cant really tell when it will happen cause friends dc2r only did 70000kms before the bottom end went....so really just depends on the maintaince....

just for example my 95 teg 140k kms going beautifully...

[spardikis]

ive seen a gsi, with full service logs ect with 300k on the clock. Nothing except for the usual service every 5 -10k and the usual belts. It uses no oil and blows no smoke. still goes as hard as ever....Hondas are indestructable! haha!

[94integragsi]

eha my integra gsi has 205 thousand and ive only had to replace the cv boots thats it. oh and it had a cam seal leak, evey thing else is running really well but i want to sell it, its in the paper, ut no one wants a honda with higher ks lol
