CRV 1999 stock over 1997 civic vti b16a engine SiR Conversion?

[josephjared22]

I have a Honda CR-V 1999 model and I'm thinking about swapping it with a civic vti B16a EG internal engine
B20 Racing Transmission, B20 Fuel pump, B20 injectors (pencil type), type R Piston B18c, Type R ECU (computer box)
EG cams (cam shaft), HKS adjustable cam gears, 4-2-1 Stainless headers, Scav, Simota air filter (carbon aluminum air intake), SIR Distributor, EF Transmission (fluid type)

Is it worth it?

para sakin.

nope, not worth it.
i would rather keep a mantained 99 crv than a souped up vti,
kahit pa sabihin ng last owner na "pang porma lang", which totally hindi ako maniniwala.

kung pinalitan lang ng stock b16a engine as is, pwede pa,
pero modded to that extent, no thanks.

nasayo parin yan sir,
thats just me.

Thank you sir but which maintenance is more expensive? crv or vti with that kind of mod?

For me don't swap, the CRV 99 is still worth keeping than swapping it with a heavily modified 15 year old SiR converted Vti.

that, i have no idea sir.

but if your into racing, go ahead, atleast modded na yung nakuha mo,
mY mga shops naman dyan sa maintenance ng mga modded cars,
not sure sa price thou.

lets just wait for other tsikot members who are into modding and racing (which i'm not)
for their views and comments.

para sakin lang, mas okei na yung crv kesa dun sa modded one.

so it has a B16A block with B18C pistons

and it has B20 injectors

what's the cyl head?

B20 transmission tapos EF transmission?

labo

Hindi din kasi ako familiar sir sa mga mods ng engine, anu po tingin nyo?
Thank you sir sa mga comments and suggestions!

Not worth it.

Yung CRV mo pwede mo dalhin kung saan without worrying kung sasayad ba or not, basically it's a beater. Dun sa VTi, mas luma na nga... ginalaw pa yung internals tapos ang baba pa. Iisipin mo pa kung saan ka pupunta ganito ganyan.

Tsaka mas may respect ka kapag CRV dala mo compared sa isang mas lumang sedan imho.

I'd rather buy a stock VTi MT then do the mods by myself. Pero still, kung isswap sa CRV... di na rin.

--

Di ka pa pala familiar sa engine mods, naku. Baka mamaya pag may nasira sa engine niyan mabaliw ka nalang.

Remember hindi na stock makina niyan, tapos hindi mo pa alam kung paano ginamit... baka mamaya ilang kms mo palang napapatakbo masira na tapos clueless ka kung paano gagawin.

Well, yeah. Kung gusto mo talaga gumalaw ng sasakyan, I'd rather mod my car than swap it with someone else's.

Unless sira sira na yung CRV mo.

Keep the CR-V. Spend extra cash on sprucing up our CR-V. The 1st gen model is still in demand.

Thanks sir! Appreciate it a lot lot lot.. :D

Parts are priced a little higher than the Vti, fuel consumption is not a big difference either.

At least the CRV is your personal use, you know it's history and maintenance thus may be easier to maintain in long run, whereas I wouldn't bet my future investment on a modified Vti whose history is unknown and the parts whose maintenance I don't even have an idea about.

Oh boy, this thread is a recipe for disaster pag nagsipasukan na yung mga alagad ng EK at mga corresponding haters.

BTT: I'd keep the CR-V, lalo na kung yung B20 engine na yan na may 150 hp.

Hindi ba nakakahinayang sir? parang ang baba nalang kasi ng value ng crv ngaun? or di lang ako updated?

Huh? Bakit ka manghihinayang na hindi mo nabili yung CRV eh halos wala ka nang makitang fresh na SiR....

Sa simula lang ba maeenjoy sir yung porma ng Sir body? :D
Napapaisip nadin kasi ako, yung crv naaakyat ko kasi ng bundok and nadadaan ko sa matinding lubak and nalulusong ko sa baha
