to keep my gen5 or buy a gen6 or 7?
hey all, I bought my 95 honda accord with 172k for 4100$. A little high but all maintence records were in writting from places. So far I replaced...
Balance shaft seal
Balance shaft seal retainer
Oil drive gear seal
Front main (crank) seal
Cam seal
Valve cover gasket
Spark plug tube seals
Timing belt
Balance shaft belt, Water pump, Stereo, Subs, Door speakers, APC headlights, Optx strobes, APC Taillights, AEM SRI Intake, NGK plugs and wires, New disty cap and rotor, New distributor O-Ring,
New radiator
Is this worth putting more money into? IE: body kit and paint? Or should I get a newer generation.Thanks for the input

what would you rather drive? what's your budget? what's your time worth?
Those are the three questions to answer. If you can easily afford it and want to drive it, do it. If you can somewhat afford it, but your time is very valuable and you dont want to spend a lot of time fixing a broken car, then it may be worth it. if you can barely afford it, the answer is no.

I would stick with what you have. With all that maintenance you listed, that thing will be good for a long long time. The body will probably wear out before the engine does. I plan on putting at least 250k on my 2000 LX (unless I get a lot of raises at work in the next few years!) I'm almost at 119k right now.
