edit: they actually still make them too...you can get them in Japan, Canada, and Europe among others.

Umm where do you get your info from... the Civic SI (1999-2000) was 160hp engine....The difference between the U.S. SI and the SIR is the R......u can get an SIR in canada or close to the border...or just get an SI...(if the R is really important to you, just buy a badge for $5)...
by the way..u should of posted this in Jan...traded in my SI for EVo...SI was already hooked up (Exterior)..oh well too late

I was speaking about back when SI's were introduced....the actual #'s for the early 90's cars gen were 125hp for the SI and not 135hp like I got from memory.....the SiR had quite a bit more using the equivalent of the Integra engine. The latest 2 gens of SI's in the US are the 160hp.
. anyway, nice pics. so your civic is stock? btw, r there any STIs out there, i know there r WRXs

i love Philippines. there all cars come with custom headunits. in honda, most of the headunits they equip is KENWOOD and CLARION. i wanted to see the interior coz i thought you got like kool electronics there. anyway, since its 2 there, ignore my request. man cant wait to go back there. and btw, did i forgot to mention that all new cars from 1998+ never comes with steelies, they all come with alloys.

It's 3AM already here. Hope you enjoy this next one. The SiR's stock but thinking of putting in Brembos. I so love my Evo's brakes... 
I'm helping my friend source in an STi through an importer as the authorized dealer only carries really crippled WRXs. For the Philippine market we get an even slower WRX than the US.

my sir ran a 14.9 quarter mile. yup, its a four door without the airbags and the sunroof...mods: header, spoon exhaust, spoon cams, neuspeed cam gears, aem CAI, aem pulleys, ngk wires and denso iridium plugs. ,running on 96 octane gas,full interior with a riced out wing 
. it does not compare to my evo here but with a little more mods, and a sripped down interior, it'll be running low 14's.
