It is very reliable now and zero leaks. The valve cover uses a special sealant and they never leak. It has amazing rust resistance, even the brake lines are copper nickel, which I've never seen on a Japanese car. I had my Integra blow a brake line on the highway, and my Prelude and Accord developed rust.

The above report is not the IQS. It’s the VDS after three years in service. I don't know of any study of 20+ years in service. Great story, though!
