Lowering springs and shocks (not sure of the brands I forgot na but I'll ask him - hindi putol ha!)
The latest he's added are the ACT 4-puck clutch and the shift light (indicated 8.8k rpm) obviously I never reached that engine speed so I never saw it function (except at start up/diagnosis).
Of course here are the most recent pics... (sorry no recent engine pics)
Allow me to just add a few more pics. These are from his Hondashowoff account so medyo luma na...
Sarap makipaglaro pag eto gamit ko how fast ba ang Civic SiR na stock to 100kph? Tanong ko lang kasi 6 or 7 seconds kayang kaya di pa namin na-time kasi...
Yeah that "civic" thing on the windshield is also a bit tacky for me but it's his car (believe me he's put worse stuff hehe). I guess he likes the attention it gets although when I drive it I have to act the part too
I think he's spent around 200k na daw at the most...when I was in Manila he used it daily gamit ko yung Jazz then pag coding palit kami so nakakapaglaro din ako.
My friend said ito ang "pambastos" niya. I was once following him home in the Jazz and my dad in this Civic when two Civics started eyeing the car maybe they were "sizing up the enemy" so to speak. Needless to say none of them made any sign or hint of it pero I'm sure they were tempted. Last year when my dad had the timing adjusted (newly installed Crower camshafts) he was testing it to see how different it was when this stock Civic (not the current gen, the one before that) raced him, or at least tried to my dad said he wasn't even trying. I tried catching up with the Jazz of course I saw the two far away with the Civic trying really hard hehe.
