Honda SiR vs Honda FD

[jaredpianist]

I currently have Honda SiR but i'm planning to sell and buy Honda FD. is it a good buy? Is FD faster than SiR? how much faster?

what do you think?
should I sell my SiR or should I mod my SiR and upgrade the speed to the limit?
or buy FD and mod it?

hard decision here.

my SiR is all stock btw.

ung SiR ko kasi bumaba na ung speed performance. hindi na ganun kabilis tulad dati. wala na din masyado batak e. parang pigil na. baka dahil 11 year-old car na. what do you think po?

pwede ko pa ba maibalik ung speed na mabilis nun?

Baka tune up lang yan

or overhaul?.

what is overhaul? haha. kakatune up ko nga lang e. parang wala naman kasi ginagawa sa tune up. haha. linis spark plugs, check timing belt, etc.

sir kung walang visible smoke sa exhaust niyo, I think thats good enough. mag-full tune up po kayo sir.

change oil, spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter.

I'd retain your SiR, kasi baka masuka ka kung pano nililinis aircon ng FD (kalas buong dash board... hehehe)


Kidding aside.. I prefer the SiR over the Fd. Mods that would be nice
1. Reinforce the body to make it stiffer since its a 10 year old car.
2. engine: port & polish + balancing
3. maybe upgrade the cams too...
4. upgrade the air intake to free flow (Non noisy type)
5. upgrade the exhaust (pero hindi yung maingay pa rin)
6. strut bars front and rear
7. projector headlight upgrade too

loose compression might be the cause of your lack of power. try using a thicker motor oil to help a little bit. also, try replacing your intake (CAI will be good -- KNN). Your intake manifold and exhaust can also play roles on this.

but before you spend more money on your old car, ask yourself if it's worth the money? if yes, then put money on maintenance and upgrades. otherwise, save until you can buy a new car.

the question is mas matulin ba ang stock 1.6 lighter sir than a 1.8 larger FD?

Mas mabilis ang SiR sa FD with R series (1800 cc) engines, ewan ko lang dun sa mga naka-K20!

Honda Civic SiR, future classic, and cheap to maintain.
