Part 2: Lets Find One

[VTEC_boi]

Well..that would only leave us with about...6Gs (4 + 2 for the B16A)

Whereas w/ this one we buy it for 5Gs. Leaving us with 15Gs left. For a motor, rear disc conversion, rims, a front lip (like..$200 for a clean Civic R one), and etc.

Plus...we can do DIY mods like clear headlamps and such.

Also..hypothetically..the newer cars have higher insurance (especially the Si). So it's cheaper, i'm guessing, to go with the 97 EX.

Hi any other losers out there.....

Youre right, after I did the math I realized the same thing. I guess we should go with the original choice.

That seems to be the winner, if we just want cheap. I think perhaps we should consider a 99 Si, it would be about 16000, but we'd have all disc brakes already, a nice new body with nifty spoilers, etc. Not to mention a B16, which we could use, or get this, we could sell the b16 in favor of something bigger. That alone would knock a couple grand off the price of the Si, what do you guys think?

well we're looking at a $4300 EX coupe vs. a $16,000 Si coupe

B18C1 in it (170 hp) and we are only at maybe $8,500 vs. a $16,000 Si coupe (160hp)

strap on an AEM EX rear disc conversion and we now have a $9,500 EX vs. a $16,000 Si coupe

low compression pistons and a revhard stage 3 turbo kit (+ ~225hp and 395lbft) and we are at about $16,500 w/ nearly 400hp and 550lbft vs. a $16,000 Si coupe

get the picture

go with the ex and build it up form there

[CivSiGuy]

i'm really feeling that EX coupe as well, it seems to be the best idea

[j.fuggi]

that turbo kit says it needs an engine management system.. $$$$?

I know, i was just showing that buying a near new Si was kinda a bad idea

[j.fuggi]

oh.. yea but that is a very nice turbo system. think i might get a stage 2 when i go for turbo

Hi!

30144 is an area code to

[Darkwing]

thats a helluva deal there on that EX civic. Mine was a 95 EX and it cost 6000! 114000 miles vs. 169000 miles though. Plus I got a warrenty.

But who cares about me! Snag that 97 EX now before someone else gets it!! (heck I would really get it if I lived close enough)

[delsolguy]

The coupe and the hatch seem to be good deals. We could probably get the coupe for like $4000 and the hatch for like $4600 or so. I'm more of a hatch man myself...what about you guys?

[Rice-Rocketeer]

HATCH!!
HATCH!!
HATCH!!

OK, Jeez, I took it back!

Besides, I think the Si's are way overpriced anyway, they should not go for more than 14000! (I wouldnt buy one for more than that, just my opinion)
