JBaby, thanks for correcting me. The only VTEC Integras were the B17, and the B18Cs. The rest were non-VTEC.

This car is probably some kind of LS. Does it have a sunroof? An RS won't have that, and it won't have leather. Actually the best way is to use the VIN. What's the 8th number of the VIN? 1 = Type-R, 4 = RS, 5 = LS, 6 = GS/SE, 7 = GS w/ leather, 8 = GSR.

it does have a sun roof and the 8th digit is a 5 so i guess it really is a LS. i was thrown off cuz of it having steelies and now wing. thanks for all you help.

Mine was an LS and had steelies and a wing before it ripped off in an accident.

oops. that must have sucked. was your LS ok or was it lost?

**8695Beaters** · 03-23-2008, 01:32 PM

I still have it, but I just bought a 1990 240SX, so I have a new toy now.

240s are sick the s13 was not a bad car i prefer a s15.

**8695Beaters** · 03-23-2008, 06:53 PM

The S13 is lighter and I like the look over the S14. Plus I could afford an S13. And it's been converted to a Sil-Eighty.

does it have any badges on the back, or even an area where you can make out what the badges were? That would be the best way to find out what youve got, because honestly... Im not sure which one youve got. They are all so similar. Im sure that the difference between them is a few factory options here 'n there and overall body weight.

But what does the back of the car say? And do you have any pictures?

They stopped badging them with the second gen. It just said Integra and that's it. The GS-R has a small badge that says "DOHC-VTEC" and that's it. They did badge the Type-R, but that's it. His VIN is a better way to go, and it sounds like he's answered the question.
