Just keep up on all the normal maintance...Head gasket, timing belt, spark plugs, wires and keep a eye on the fluids and keep them topped off.

I had a 91 teg with 215k miles and it ran perfect! I sold it with 235K and it still ran stronger then ever. It had a lightened flywheel and exhaust, and could beat ls swapped hatchbacks and crx's so.....

baby it... I have a Stock 90 Integra with 274k, Has 210psi on all 4 cylinders. But it has a slight rod knock when you first start it up in the morning. It goes away once the oil circulates. Just make sure to keep the maintenance up on it and keep the rpms down.
