Hey yall im new here and i wanted to ask a qiuck question......

Would it be worth it to buy a 00 si with 118k miles???? its only 7995... and the only mod it has is 17 inch wheels.

I was thinking about going ls/vtec and keeping the b16 head and putting a new valvetrain in it and putting a stock b18b block.

How does this sound, i would go ls/vtec in the future like 5-7k down the road...

 

for 8k u can get an eg with a better swap than lsvtec

 

depends upon your tastes...if you'd rather have an Si than a hatch with a swap or something, I would keep the stock B16A2 in it...unless of course you go with an R motor or something. LS/VTEC would be a waste of a good B16!

 

those miles are high...but if it was taken care of...that isnt really a big deal. If the rest of the car is in good condition I say go for it. I paid the same for my 00 HX with 54K on it. Presented with both...I would have gotten the SI

 

ehh... if the frame is clean on the Si... wouldn't be bad.. but you can prob. have more fun in a hatch with a bad *** swap...

 

i bought this car for 8k not two weeks ago. click the link in my signature.

 

thats 3k too much.

 

if it's in good condiotn i would buy it. you don't see si's everyday, and 99-00's have tuned suspension(still not the greatest but better than other civics)

 

b16s are garbage imo

 

Try to get him down to 6,500 or 7k.

What kind of wheels?

 

dont mater about the miles..the car will last 1,000,000 miles, just replace the block with another A2 with less miles. i bought one for $200 a onth ago with less then 40k miles on it. COMPLETE

 

So u guys are saying go ahead... from the pictures it looks like an si with 50k on it..... and its just some run of the mill 17s... I was planning on tossing those 4 sum Rotas in black or gunmetal....

where can i get a clean b16a2 long or short block off the web?????

I kno about the fun of a hatch and i would love to have 1 but manni hatches are sparse in my area....

Im a JDM freak!!!!

Does any1 know where i can get those ION coated looking black housing head lights from????

get a Type R short block.. you already have the PR3 head.. do a little head work and your pretty much set..
