    Your car is your baby. Basic maintenance is your best bet like oil change and filter, air filter, tire pressure, tranny fluid level, power steering fluid level, coolant level, and so much more. By doing this will avoid you costly repair.

    just watch out for that possible roof rust. iyan talaga ang sakit ng mga eg. kaya it's best if you park it underneath a roof everynight para 'di mahamogan ang baby mo

    nakakaapekto po ba talaga ang init sa labas sa aircon ng kotse?(senxa na po, super noob talaga ako). kasi ung esi ko po, mejo onti lang ung lamig ng aircon, pati ndi ko po maxado ramdam pag 1 lang. pero functional naman po talaga ung aircon kasi may hangin na lumalabas pati malamig pa din. ndi nga lang ung super cool. anu po kaya advice nyo for that?
    thanks po...

    I had an Esi before. di talaga malamig. even if i replaced the cooling coil with a replacement one, di pa rin kaya ang sobrang init. i suggest you swap your cooling coil with with a JDM surplus. it has more rows compared to the local version. may conversion lang daw sa pipings.

    you have a honda civic EG with a swapped d15 vtec engine? or a non vtec ph15 engine? magkaiba yun. the latter came in standard in all Esi's...

    good car, and if the orig engine's been replaced with a d15 surplus, well, even better.

    all hondas are known for reliability. if you take care of your eg, she'll take care of you. konting kuliglig lng na marinig/ramdam mo somewhere, either sa engine or sa pang-ilalim, pa check mo agad para hinde mag multiply problema.

    your EG has a nice dashboard. it's the best i've seen in any honda i've owned.

    usual maintenance stuff. use a lighter oil than 20w-50. and always change the oil at 5-6000T kms. sparkplugs too. if you do have a d15, have the valve tappet clearances adjusted every now and then.

new owner of honda esi 92. pls help...
