    I'm planning to upgrade to an SIR. I have a honda civic vti 97.

    Is it worth the +150 thou?

    I'm not into racing pero gandang-ganda lang ako sa porma ng SIR.

    i think he wants to sell his vehicle and buy an SiR pero he has to add P150,000.

    surf the net and the classifieds pare, i have seen a few SiRs that have been set up and are for sale. yung iba nakasupercharger pa.

    kung exterior lang, imho wag na lang,
    mas ok ang stock looking then nice set of wheels plus SQ music, patok na sa libro ko yan.

    kung engine, imho engine na lang tapos stock looking with wheels, sleeper yan pre, mas ok sa libro ko yan.

    if both, sell your 97 Vti and buy a 99 SiR

    imho lang po, para atang mataas ung +150k kung itre trade mo 97 vti mo sa 99 SiR (of course depende din un sa condition ng mga sasakyan).

    If I we're you kung very good condition pa nman vti mo, stick with it na lng. Sabi nga ni kimpoy nice set of wheels and a good SQ music oks na oks na, kaw na din nagsabi, u're not into racing nman. Ano ba nagustuhan mo sa SiR na ala sa Vti mo sir?

    97 VTi- around 300t ngayon

    +150 = 450

    450t SiR ok yung price. If you're just after the looks and not the performance baka sayang lang yung SiR if you dont make use of its potential

    in SIR u will notice a weak torque at lower rpm compare to ur VTi, SIR loves to rev always

    sa looks tailight ala LED, front bumper, 15"sir rims, at DOHC V-TEC decals

    sa performance 4wheel discbrake, towerbar, b16 DOHC vtec..>>

    kung trade in iyan at dagdag ka ng 150 kunin mo na just make sure na A1 condition ang makina(di sumabog, di ginamit sa drag racing, walang problema)...mas maganda kung ma test drive mo rin yung SiR na kukunin mo....

    kung palit exterior at makina yung sinasabi mo then go for it since may budget ka naman...just have it done sa reputable shops

    kung looks, iba ang trnk, tail lights, front and rear bumper, pati grill and headlights ng SiR sa 97 VTi.

    B16 DOHC VTEC yung SiR (160hp)
    D16 SOHC VTEC yung VTi (125hp?)

    not worth it kung ipapa modify mo ang exterior ng vti mo...

    mas magandang ibenta mo ang vti mo then bili ka ng sir... ganda pa ng engine!

    I'd definitely sell a 97 VTi to get a 99-00 SiR... but I'd go for one in good condition, even if I had to pay up to 500k.

    The B16 is definitely a stronger engine, both in power and durability (hve yet to see anyone break a D16, though!), and fuel consumption is not much different... it's a good deal, and the extra power will make you smile that 1% of the time when you will actually use it. :D

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    yeah go sell ur Vti for a 99SIr. its definitely worth it!
    iba tlga porma nun Sir, it looks more aggressive, plus u get a monster 1600 engine, 4wheel disc brakes, stock strut bar, nice 15" stock mags. pag nakakuha ka ng stock, lowering springs lang, ayos kna ;)

    This was suppose to be my plan when i sold my civic esi 2 months ago, but unfortunately my dad wont let me get a 2nd hand. gusto nya un bago nadaw...(ok nmn sakin un current civic eh, but m still hopin that i can convince him cuz january pako bibili) matagal ko na din gusto yang Sir, prang ayaw lng ibigay ng diyos sakin haha!

    benta mona un Vti mo, kuha natyo ng Sir. once you drive it, u'll realize that your 150k is really worth it! ;)

    kung kakarera ka, go for it. pero if you're only for the looks, forget it. you're getting basically the same car but with a different engine. so useless if you're gonna use the power really. get another car nalang like an accord or cefiro na 2nd hand din. just my 2 cents worth.
