pero if ever po, anong best choice po dyan para sa inyo?

Don't rock someone else's style.

And please, not another Civic.

If you would want to stand out, get a beaten-up B13 Sentra for less than 100. Or sub-100. Repaint. OEM color if wanted. Don't go cheap on paint, please. Go DuPont, or K92. Anzhal looks ... err ... Get OEM parts. Mags, bumpers, headlights ... everything. Find the freshest one. Preferably new. Stick them altogether. Get a fresh SR20 engine. Fool the hell out of your relatives & friends. Let them ride on your " fairly-new " B13, take them on an expressway. Laugh at your bud's SiR. Then leave him in the 80++km stretch of SCTEX. Once you reach your destination. Laugh at your bud's dressed up and accessorized civic like an autistic person. Then finally, surprise them what's under the hood. I`ll bet. Their jaws will drop.

Sometimes, you just need to lay-low in terms on looks and focus on the performance itself. Frankly, if given the chance, I'd do that. I'd gladly will. No budget, though.

how much do you think would that cost?

4168469: Nope, I find the pre-facelift look too old. Yung headlights sobrang bug-eyed, taillights luma tingnan. Mileage is a bit high, too.
4177596: Ano ba yan... Chop chop! SiR front tapos Domani rear? Parang kung saan saan ka kumuha ng piyesa at pinagsama-sama. Kung kinonvert niya too look like a whole post facelift SiR then maybe it might still be worth considering. And if part of the mod list includes rear disc brakes, it would be even better.
4458927: Eto pwedeng ipag-isipan. Ang dami ng pics, at napaka-detailed. Obvious na confident siya with the condition of the car. Visit this one personally, God may have found the perfect ride for you.

kaya lang kuya GTi, wala na kong pang modify dyan kung kukunin ko yan, kahit pang sound set up wala na. hehehe. Eh kung ako nalang mag upgrade ng SiR rear nung blue? FRONT AND REAR daw yung disc brakes nun eh.

Meron? Di ko nakita ah.

If you are able to find an affordable conversion, why not? BUT, looking at its heavily modified state this one has definitely been extensively raced. People don't do this to cars just to show off or use for their daily commute. And I am turned off with the black hood and trunk, nababaduyan ako eh.

Dun sa 2000 model, mukhang mas sariwa yan. It is already lightly modified, you don;t have to spend for new rims and engine mods anymore since may race filter na yan. I can't see the stereo, but in case you need to change that, hindi naman yan ganun ka mahal. And most importantly, its got lesser kilometers on it.

**michaelbelen** · November 14th, 2011 08:46 PM

268k eh noh? Since negotiable, start by asking for the last price. Kung ayaw sabihin, try hitting around 230k, and negotiate from there. Try asking other Tsikoteers for their opinions as well.

Yung 2440279 lumalabas lumang Nokia N-Gage phone.
