Help Rajicase Pick A New Car!

[m3leistung]

I had an 06 civic si when my m3 was out of commission for a few years. More reliable than a BMW, 8200 redline, factory lsd, slick 6 speed shifter, 30mpg hwy. I liked the vtec of the si over the i-vtec of the tsx fwiw. Fun car to zip around in. It was really hard to keep it stock esp with way cheaper mods available. I would get a tune/tuner to get rid of rev hang on the 06's tho. If you're rebuilding your truck then enjoy the vtec machine for some cheap reliable fun while it's down

These bad larry's usually hard shift into 2nd or 3rd or just start slipping. I've also seen them lose reverse only, and lose forward everything only lol. Mainly abuse and people not changing fluid for 150k. Or the new owner decides to do a trans flush on a 150k untouched trans and then finds it doesn't shift as well. Lucas Trans fix-in-a-can works wonders for these

Thanks!

All the failed 4l60's ive seen were no reverse.

[someguy2800]

Both of the ones I rebuilt were due to the hub shearing off the sunshell which leaves you with no reverse, 2nd, or 4th. They have pretty wimpy internals and clutches for the power they are intended to handle. Lots of stamped sheet metal crap and thin flimsy bushings.

Going to look at an Si tomorrow. Hope you guys find it in your hearts to forgive me :P

That's funny cause I have always enjoyed Si's. They aren't spectacular, but for a point A-B car I think they are pretty fun and about as reliable as it gets.

Bunch of turbo kits available for a 2006 Civic Si — Full Race, AJP, etc.

I think you underestimate the level of theft deterrent that a manual transmission is these days haha..
One thing I love about my twin disc is that even of people that can drive a stick, I bet a small fraction of them could jump in my M3 and not stall it several times trying to get away lol.

I had a friend in Minneapolis that had his civic hatch project car stolen and recovered 3 times.
