Why not try a transmission specialist...like Chag Auto Supplies. I mean it's better to get an opinion ASAP and save urself more headache and cash down the road.

Yeah....forgot about Solo's in Charlieville.....

Know anyone else? Reputable?

Yuh know sometimes yuh just can't have an opinion without people getting so emotional. I'm talking about 2 specific cars and btw the SiR is marketed in the UK and Canada as Familiy Saloons . I drive both cars on a daily basis and I was giving my opinion to the guy who was considering the 2L RORO.......

Read this somewhere before and wanted to know if there was any truth to it......apparently Nissan understates the performance of their engines.

What say you?

yeah, real impressive, and it only have 170hp, i'd say for a car wit 105 ponies d 3 did pretty well, , put 170 ponies in a 3 and watch honda men cry...the mazdaspeed 323 wit less ponies stock would rape a sir for kicks, den it would pizz all over him and light im afire, compare apples to apples fel...

Yeah....get the 2L....the 1.6 is gutless

like the look of the hatch....sportier looking than the sedan. Just get a nice set of 17" to fill out the wheel wells and the car will look great. Seen a couple with aftermarket rims....look really good....no chrome though.

Get it fully loaded and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

i think we forgetting that the reason people drop their cars or use coilovers is to get better handling on cornering. you have to sacrifice comfort for handling. the coilovers are more rigid to reduce any rebound when cornering or swerving in and out of traffic :D Most sport or hybrid cars come wit...

Nice car, very comfortable, the only thing I've heard about going wrong "often" with those is the lcd display unit which is quite expensive at the dealership. If you are going with a new car, it might be worth your while to go and check out the subaru legacy GT, in my opinion this vehicle is superi...

Um, u sure about that^^^^^??? All searches on the net point to it sharing the Megane platform (as with the Versa). The Tiida is a huge car when compared to the clio on the ball crossdrilled. But yeah I think that's where the similarity ends. Major chassis parts maybe interchangeable but I take it t...

FACT...Euro cars ARE more reliable and better built than Japanese cars. FICTION...Euro cars ARE more expensive to maintain that Japanese cars. Why?, cause I compared genuine parts for a BMW 3 Series to a Honda Accord, alot of the Accord prices for a similar part was actually way higher than the BMW...

^^try de swift sport......and not to turn this into a hate honda thread, but VTEC is quite lame compared to other variable valve timing techs of today, VTEC only addresses one or 2 of the variables that can be changed, and its not a true variable profile, it just has 2 stages...... VTEC is lame?? ....

I personally like Bridgestone Potenzas....RE750 works very well. I'm looking at changing out to RE01-Rs when this set is finished. The Dunlop SP Sport MAXX also gets very good reviews.

Had a great doc on this topic but can't find it know. Basically all valve timing systems aim towards more power, higher mileage and better driveability. Of the systems being used I recall that Rover had the most sophisticated system but was limited to a max of 6 cylinders due to the space requiremen...

Have a Stream with K20B and CVT....have to get used to driving a CVT....no downshift...power just comes on strong, smooth and continuous.....scared the crap outta me the first time I opened it up on the highway

ek4ever

doh worry...that is how the transmission is supposed to work. Honda designed the transmission to hold a lower gear so that the engine is kept in or closer to it's power zone. If you had a manual you would downshift to keep the revs up....remember it's a B16A and it thrives in the mid to hi rpm zone

They're all gimmicks. The US FTC has had to take action against many of these products.

Use a quality synthetic oil and filter and change as required.

Fellas.....even with a JDM SiR dat 4th gear final drive ratio too low for a B16A to overcome. Too wide a ratio difference between 3rd and 4th. Yuh really need a manual to enjoy the B16A.
