i think its safe to say SIR is the most HATED car of its time..
OK lang yun it can still be taken positively.

You still don't get it, SIR was never hated, it was the owners...mga feeling...
Saka yun sinasabi mo na inggit lang dahil gusto magka SIR, bakit maiingit kung kayang bumili ng brand new? Maybe yun mga owners ng SIR Ang inggit teyig very hard to dress up their SIR to compensate yun lumang model since they can't afford to but a brand new vehicle... Kaya sinasabi na "for keeps na" kasi hinde makabili ng bago...![]()
POPCORN and SODA please, I guess this will gonna be an exciting scenehehehhe!!!!
sir hindi naman sa sinasabi na most HATED car ang SiR, ang nakaka inis lang sa mga KALBONG NAKA JAPEKYS NA OAKLEY SHADE NA NAKA SiR e ung matabihan mo lang sa kalsada tapos naka baba ung bintana bigla ka nalang hahamunin na makipag reysing reysing sa kanila. pucha e kahit ung Jimny ko kayang kaya tapusin ung kayabangan ng mga naka SiR e![]()
Maganda naman SIR, actually, i want one... Nuon..
Pero puro speed limit na major highways ngayon, useless nadin para sakin.
Ngayon vios se_limited pede na ako,
vvti kicked in yo!![]()
i used to hang with SiR owners
libis days
those were fun days
pero graduate na. matagal na
kaya sa mga ngayon lang naka experience mag SiR... papunta palang kayo pabalik na kami
huwag feeling
siguro yung iba dyan inggit sa inyo
pero yung iba matagal na nabenta SiR nila
baka kayo pa ang nakabili
The kupal owners are the ones hated not the car itself.
Red alert flame thread!![]()
Ako rin used to watch illegal drag races before pero i prefer to have a much more comfy car right now. If ever i'd want somethin mayabang it would be the dodge challenger or the 'stangs.
Wow, new thread.
Yes, it's not the car but the attitude that goes with it. A lot of tsikot members will still stop to admire a well-kept, stock SiR and that car has earned it's own right as a classic. But it's already passed it's prime and there are many, many more cars that have taken it's place as the toy for the big boys.
*TS, i do hope you did not get your handle from being a Honda engine fan. :D
Just answering this...
There was a time I drove a seriously modded B14 Sentra. Driving it normally along EDSA and minding my own business, I got two "provocations" from two different Civic SiR drivers on the same day. To make the story short, I left them in my dust.
Civic SiR is over-rated. I dont hate the car. I just hate the over-compensating drivers in them (people like you).

BTW, years ago, my AE111 Corolla A/T with 4AFE turbo leaves Civic SiRs one to two cars behind it at the quarter mile.

^ I didn't know your 4AFE was turbocharged. Hehe. Cool ! And it did run on LPG right ?
Btw honda engine swaps will cost you a testicle.
Back in the day, I also watched the illegal drag races... often cheering the underdog car going up against bigger more powerful cars.
But I have graduated from those days. And why do I want to buy a 12 year old torqueless wonder car? A Sentra with a SR20DE engine under its hood is much faster, more fun and cheaper to setup.

The problem lies on the drivers, parang ang feeling nila luxury car ang Civic SiR pwera daming sasakyan na modern that can take it's place. They feel like superior, belittling other brands - lalo na pag super modified ang unit. I respect the stock ones, but remember, it's not about the car but it's about the driver.
I would be picking a 1.5 Vios or City for my daily drives than this, honestly. Kasi too much ang Civic SiR nowadays.
And how about Honda fanboys that will get mad if a Honda taxi would be roaming the streets one of these days???
It was turbocharged for a while. it also blew the engine after a while as well (boost creep).
After the engine was rebuilt... the turbo was removed and sold. A few years later, I had the auto-lpg system installed. Currently, only the exhaust system is the only leftover from its turbo days.
Nakuha niyo GH and uls, mga nag second childhood mga matatanda ng naka SIR, they were deprived then, never had a car in their teenage years and in their 20s... Pangarap nila then yun SIR kaya nun nakaipon at nakabili na akala nila teenager pa rin sila at early 2000 pa rin
