Hey guys,


Im thinkign of buying a runabout car for work and so forth also for my missus who is selling her crx soon.

Ive got a few q'ns?.

2. What are the main prob areas to look out for in these vehicles?
3. How much km's can u get out of them on a full tank on say non high revv driving?

Cheers

The 92 models are worth round 9000-11000 (auto or manual u lookin for)..?

theres nothing you can really check out as far as mechanics go theyre relativly trouble free, main issue is sensors fouling up around the 130K km mark.

Non high reving you should be able to get 450-500km out of a full tank.

things to look out 4:
-Tranny Bearings
-Clutch (as with all other manual cars)
-Sensors

mainlay any weired/unusual sounds.

worst problem i have had ( and only really) with my two Si's that i have owned....

is the distributor failing - and main relay failing too.

Being a compolsory part of an engine - get these checked and or repaired/overhauled - at a cost of $300 for a dizzy rebuild , and about $50 for the main relay.

Apart from this - if u treat her nice ( and more importantly...the previous owner/s have treated her nice too..) u should be in for another 50,000 kms of trouble free motoring :)

Si's rock :)

[Ceffo]

man i said cheap civic. 9-11k :eek: Well at least they all dont have major problems. Thanx for the input guys. Still like the K's u get out of them thou.

[[[d a n n y]]]

Si's r more like in the range of 6-10K depending on the Km's and the conditon.

i definatly wouldnt be paying 9-11k for a Si.
do urself a favour and grab a VTi. better equiptment level. Newer and u can pick em up for 8-10k. Si's run 6-9k, depending on condition (most are beatup by now).
