    once and for all, what shall I do, Civic is what I really aim for, buy a 15 yr old car, considering its almost 2012, 190k, repair it for 70k. and that's it, just another simple car on the road without the head turning tedency? Or save my money, 150k more, and buy a SiR! ???? )))

    Hindi sulit SiR. Masyado nang mahal.

    Yeah, it's basically a toy. But with the price of it, you can make better toys out of more modern cars that can be bought out of the ~400k you have.

    Naku po... Di pa nakabili nakagat na ng mod bug! That's not what you do with your money, bro. If you want a great looking and fast car, you get a stock post facelift EK Civic, aside from buying a new stereo head unit and changing the rims keep it as is, and then save on and on and on until you have money to buy a Lancer EX. Ayun.

    I respect a stock looking EK more than a lowered EK with a huge rear wing spoiler, scraping-the-ground body kit and big-ass thunder-like exhaust that'll herald you from half a mile away. Lumalabas na image boy racer on a tight budget. Mas lalo kung nahalata mo na hindi tunay na SiR yan at gumagamit ng D16 engine parin, may rear drum brakes, gumagamit ng SiR grille at may DOHC VTEC na sticker sa tabi kahit na SOHC VTEC lang yung D16.

    The VTi is fast enough as is. Napakagaan niyan. I've heard of people run 190 and above using a bone stock VTi. Let's say you heeded my advice and got a stock VTi and then added some basic mods to it. Sabihin natin na inapak mo ng todo at lumampas ka ng 200km/h. Ang feeling niyan para kang lilipad, and its not stable at all due to the light weight. I have an uncle who used to drag race. 2000 Civic SiR ang gamit niya the engine is stock, pinalitan ng exhaust at may body kit and spoiler. He was able to attain speeds of 210-220km/h with 160hp. Ang sabi sakin the EK is not stable at high speeds, it feels very floaty. Kahit ba naman yung 2005 Accord tinakbo niya ng lagpas 200 medyo floaty floaty parin.

    haha

    ayun... gusto pala ng car na may "head turning tedency"

    dude, kung gusto mo ng headturner hindi dapat EK civic ang binibili mo

    that's so last decade dude

    panahon pa ng Fast and the Furious yan

    noong late 90s/early 00 sikat ka pag naka SiR ka

    pero nasa post-Transformers era na po tayo

    ang headturner ngayon mga Mustang and Camaro

    Mas type ko pa ang stock Civic EK kaysa sa sobrang ricey. Mas may dating pa rin ang Civic EK up to now

    Wag yang fully setup na SiR. Kakatakot yan. I'd share what happened to our SiR before. My uncle is a very skilled drag racer, yung SiR kotse ng lolo ko (yes you read that right, my lolo is a bit young for a lolo, very active too. ) na binili ng 2nd hand with all the rice and all (stock engine and rims with body kit, loud exhaust and faux hood scoop). At that time it was only barely a year/8000kms old and bought for 580k. Laging hinihiram yan ng uncle ko at pinaglalaruan. Baka maalala pa yan ng mga nagrarace dati, orange yan at plate number nun (since wala na yan sa amin I don't think it poses a risk and if mods find it wrong, please erase nalang )WHY-123. Very obnoxious car. :rofl: When it was sold, laspag na laspag yan, pinalitan na ang windshield kasi nabasag, nagkaroon na ng heavy engine damage, at nabalian na ng suspension arm. Kaya ingat lang... grabeng lumipad yan lalo na kung medyo bagu-baguhin ka palang sa pagmamaneho.

    I'd suggest you get an SiR if you can find one that's stock and selling for a reasonable price (around 300+k). Here are some you may want to consider.

    Pwede naman maging head turner ang lumang civic ah...pag sobra ricey tapos maingay, yun nga lang pag tinignan ng mga tao sabay tingin sa malayo tapos iling...

    Sa kabilang banda a stock oldish car, but very clean i admire more.

    Stock, malinis, maganda tunog ng stereo at higit sa lahat malamig ang aircon...ayos.

    Thanks very much sir Gti, But to think, what is an SiR if not moded right? Feeling ko running like 140 without effort will be good enough for me, SiR is too much of speed right? Definitely designed for a race or such right? So feeling ko, correct me if I'm wrong, Ill just stick with Vti's, Keep if clean and simple as what almost all of the guys say right? Am I right po ba? But to think its almost a 15 yr old car, di kaya sobrang hirap to still keep it on it's tip top shape?

    I wouldn't recommend an SiR. i had one before and yes, it's nice to drive but that's it.

    the SiR is too old, overpriced and has no safety features aside from the seat belts and very hard to find a fresh unit.

    you'd be better of with another car like a vios or something.

    you know what, save more money and buy a FORD LYNX RS.

    if you want to turn heads, you must learn to be humble at first muna. then from there, they'd look up to you sayin', "wow, napaka humble niya at di siya mayabang."

    Hindi naman. I have a friend who owns a black SiR. 50+tkms palang at stock na stock. Hindi niya pinangkakarera, ginagamit lang as an ordinary car. Naku kung ibebenta niya yan ang daming makikipag-agawan niyan... Hindi ka talaga makakapagpaniwala na 11 year old car na yan. Its nice to have a fast car and let loose every once in a while. Just don't go too loose.

    I'd suggest you get the newest EK VTi you can find, or even SiR if you want to. Basta save up more if you have to and get the one in the best condition. Best to keep it simple para timeless talaga at mukhang bago pa even after another ten years or so, by which time siguradong classic na ang tingin sa EK, much like the Galant GTi right now. Kung magmomod, level one lang pwede na, too much is bad for the engine and also for your wallet. More speed means more fuel consumption too at mahal ang gasolina ngayon.

    A lynx rs is 2.0 right? It'll kill me with gas alone, and for sure parts of it are deadly expensive right? Seriously, 300k is the limit of my everything, that's the best of me, kasama na maintenance, konting mods sa mags and sounds, and thats it, 300k all in all, kaya civic nalang natitira sa isip ko eh, ((

    Haha! Bro tinataksil mo yung sasakyan from which you base your username! Ang iisan reservation ko against the Lynx RS is the fuel consumption. Nakakatempt humatak ng mabilis sa 2.0 pero if you do, nakakatakot din ang babayaran mong pang-gas.

    *michael: Like bro SiRbossR mentioned, walang airbags and ABS ang EK! So don't get too carried away! And skill is the biggest factor in earning respect on the road. Kung nanood ka ng Initial-D, you'd understand what I mean very, very well.

    Hapit ka pala sa budget,the more na i mindset mo na mas ok ang stock pero kalinis na sasakyan at least wax lang at car shampoo ang puhunan,isama mo na tire black.

    the 2.0 NA engine on the RS is efficient doesn't consume as much fuel as an SiR would. kasing lakas lang ng PH16 or D15/16 engine. Niky, please confirm this. hehe

    Expensive parts? what?! As per experience, mas mahal pa parts ng nissan kesa sa ford. i get my ford parts at Mazford and Autorama. prices for parts are competitive and mura if you let me say that word.

    The RS is out of the box, head turner and it has got the power to boot.
