    It depends, anong mods na ginawa sa oto mo? Sariwa pa ba yung vti? Straight swap or may dagdag? If you can give us mods on your car and the condition of the 96.

    sa 95 esi ko sir napalitan lang yung mags, headlights, sound system set-up lang ang main sir.

    first owner po yung sa vti sir at sariwa yata kasi stock lahat. add cash ako sir.

    kinoconsider din po kasi sa pagswap kasi daw babae magdadrive pero iniisip ko po yung maintenance din kung alin ang mas magastos, pati din yung traffic dito maynila kung alin mas malakas magkonsumo.

    Kung ang concern mo tipid ng gas, mas malakas matic pero masarap sa traffic. Not significant yung mga upgrade ng esi kaya dagdag talaga. Kung tipong complete eg9 upgrade, siya pa dapat dagdag. As is, dagdag ka talaga pero no more than 30k and kalas sounds Para lipat na lang sa vti. Try to get it straight swap kung papayag siya. 1 year difference lang ng oto.

    Kung sariwa yung vti, go for it. Ingat lang sa tranny ng a/t. Test drive muna.

    rather than adding cash sa swap sir, is it a better idea to use the cash to be added para itune up nalang yung manual na esi?

    or mas okay pa din talaga yung vti sa esi?

    In my opinion, tune the car. Manual car have less things to worry about. It really depends on what you want in a car. Mas type ko esi kesa pre-SiR body.

    If you favor a/t then go for it. Mahirap kasi kung hindi satisfied sa car. Perspective ko lang na mas type ko esi. Hehe

    Mas marami problem matic kasi kung may sira transmission hindi ka na makakatakbo unlike manual kahit sliding clutch na mauuwi pa rin. Hindi pwede jump start matic unlike manual. Change atf every 40k or baka masira a/t, sa manual kahit 80k tinakbo pwede pa basta pumapatol pa gears and hindi sliding.

    Having personally owned both cars before, I would pick the EG ESi over the EK VTi anytime. For me, the PH16 is still more responsive than the VTEC, which you need to rev all the way to wake it up.

    Kaya naman ng babae mag drive ng manual. Tignan mo lang yung mga med-rep naka Vios J.

    At mas matipid yung manual trans in terms of fuel consumption and maintenance.

    noted sir, salamat...

    anong meron sa mga med-rep na nakavios j?

    in terms of fuel consumption hindi ba mas magastos manual kasi pag traffic naka uno or dos ka lang which actually consumes a lot of gas? uhrm sorry if the question seems dumb

    Vios j kasi lahat manual. That's the preferred car ng pharmacy companies. Lahat manual kahit lalaki or babae you get the same.

    Mas malakas matic sa gas kasi you loose a lot of power sa transmission unlike manual ikaw control ng lahat, from clutch to gear selection.

    ohhhh i see.... sabi kasi nung sinasabayan kong nakavios j matigas clutch.

    speaking of clutch how do i know kung my prob na yung kambyo ko? kasi parang hirap akong dalhin sia sa uno. akala ko d lang naapakan ng maayos yung clutch so tinest ko sia idos tres at kwatro kumakagat naman pero pag itataas ko ng uno ayaw ilang tries bago kumagat tapos parang antigas pa, sabi saken baka daw sobrang bilis ko nung nagtry ako mag uno pero hindi naman ako mabilis that time.

    Kapag tumitigas na, tumataas bago kumapit clutch, meron pa na natatangal sa gear habang nag drive pero bihira. Yung sa Primera, pwede clutch master or synchronizer. No worries, mura lang pagawa yan. Then you might want to change gear oil na rin while pinapagawa.

    wala naman ako problema pag nagrereverse gear ako yung uno lang talaga. >_< ano yung "grind" anak ng tilapya wala talaga ako alam sa sasakyan, driver lang kasi ako konting weird na tunog at pakiramdam sa sasakyan pasa agad.

    Grind = tuning na parang naguutugan bakal.

    Malamang ubos na power steering fluid. Check under the hood, may nakalagay naman dun na "power steering fluid" sa cap ng container. Kung walang Laman, malamang may tagas sa return hose or rack and pinion.
