Check this out. It's an extremely poor job at a replication of the 99-00 Honda Civic Si model. They sell these at H and A Accessories. A buddy of mine told me they are selling them, but I think it's sad - and for $15.99 - it's not worth it.

Anybody know of any good manufacturers of diecast models of the Si?

The wheels aren't right, and it just looks so out of proportion.

 

check out http://www.modifierscars.com you can actually soup those cars up

 

Thanks for the link. Are they diecast or plastic though?

 

i think they are diecast, but very small scale. that Si looks like ****.

 

It's like they didn't even look at the real car before they made the model

 

they are diecast, and they don't look like ****. i have the SI and GSR which look really nice in real life. they are coming out with a EK hatchback pretty soon and im gonna buy that as well

Here is the one from the other site. This one comes with extra parts. But only in one colour? And a body kit?

And you're right. It's like none of these people looked at the Si before making models of it.

 

here is a close up of the Si.. believe me they look 10000x better than that red one you already bought, and they are 1/48 scale. plus you can modify them! same price as the red one, about 15 bucks.

Where can you buy these things? And is this from the same people that made those little skate boards and bmx bikes? What's the scale?

 

no, they come in blue, black, and red. and you don't have to use the body kit, i didn't. i just painted the lip black

 

Looks pretty safe - but I'd have to do a number on those FULL RED TAILS! Tsk tsk tsk!

 

just search on the net, or go to local toy/hobby stores. yes, they are made by that same company. its either 1/42 or 1/48 scale.

lol, yeah, i painted the bottom half of those suckers light gray. looks

dude they sell spare rims for modifiers??? i've never seen that before. looks like i'll have to squeeze those modifier chrome dubs from the escalade onto a Si so i can 'bling bling' like a champ

 

those modifiers are WRONG!

they have the SOHC engine in them
i have the 99SI in red

pissed me off.

 

i put the GSR engine into the SI. DOHC VTEC yo

 

I'm surprised they haven't came out with optional altezza lights for $2.99.

 

i have the yellow R. I can still get a few Si's in blue and red and Black.

 

those were optional si wheels from the dealer, if thats why you thought it was shitty. not being an *** at all, just letting people who didnt know know

 

Your right those are the optional wheels but they still look like ****.
Those modifiers are pretty shitty too.

Get a zipzap y0!

 

i have a si modifier. they are small but fun to play with.....

 

Modifiers are awesome! I have all the cars in the series...don't really dig the trucks and what not. That red Si sucks!

 

the escalade chromies wont fit on the other cars (coups, sedans; but probably the other trucks) its cuz the diameter is not with proportion with the other smaller cars...trust me, i already tried....

 

You can buy that 1:24 Si model at Wal-mart for $7.00. It looks a lot better in person than in that photo.

 

hot wheels came out with a few different models of the Si......they have 4 different in the match box car size and they came out with two wings west versions in the 1/18 size......i actually found a blue Si in the shitty 1/24 size like the red one pictured at the top....but i only payed $2.50 at hannaford
