    Every car needs a Clifford Red Dog warning light.

    Nice! I bought a 2007 Coupe Si in black new in December 2006! It had the front / rear / side bodywork, was lowered, and had Axis Widetrack wheels with 235/40-18s. Loved the engine and shifter, didn't love the rev hang. Liked the interior and dash a lot. Traded in in mid 2012 on a Scion FR-S.

      You can easily remove rev hang with flash and tune. It's just set up stock like that for emissions. Burns leftover gas in cylinder

    I noticed nobody's commented this yet...... THE HFP HONDA FACTORY PERFORMANCE body kit made these 2006 to 2011 Civic Coupe looks so much more aggressive with that front lip rear lip side skirts!!!!!!!!
    A lot of people didn't like the way the 2016 to 2011 SI Coupe luck because it was too round and not enough sharp edges and curves but with the hfp package it definitely looks so much more aggressive

    Curious what your thoughts are regarding engagement/performance of these videos. I think the format works well, but for the amount of subscribers you have, the engagement is shockingly low. Is it an algorithm thing? Format thing? Worth changing formats? Your enthusiasm and talents for making these videos should not be "rewarded" with a couple thousand views. You deserve all the engagement and growth Zack. I hope the views come in more steadily.

      I had this channel so it would alert me when Zach had a new episode. I stoped doing that because I was getting annoyed by the amount of shit box cars he was reviewing. Some of those cars were station wagons from the 90’s.

      I think it's because he posts so many videos people aren't going to catch each one.

    Should try a FA5 civic si instead, the 4 door has a better suspension in my opinion

    I had a 2009 4 door Si (bought new) I wish I never got rid of it. Just a great car all around.

    I love my '07 Si Sedan, over 250k miles and it's gotten me cross country multiple times. Always great to see these cars get some love

    Great car. Love that it’s a coupe but it is butt ugly.

    8th generation honda si are one of the best generations of Hondas built 👍. A lot of potential and will become a classic car very soon worth a lot of money

    • @jonmcclane7433
      @jonmcclane7433 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I hope so, I keep checking the prices and for a really really clean low mile one they’re in the 12-15k range. I’m holding onto mine with the hopes I can get a lot for it one day and if not then I’ll just hold onto it.

  • @JonathonMUSSAI
    @JonathonMUSSAI 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    If you’re ever near Toronto Canada come do a video on my 8th gen sedan, k24 swapped, kraftwerks supercharged and straight cut 1st to 4th gear

      Any hood modifications with that k24/ kraftwerks setup?

    @tasstychezbugu1563 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    I almost got one of these.. but couldn’t find one clean enough. Ended up going with a GTI but a part of me really wishes I held out for an Si. What a great car for the money.

    Super cool to see these still getting recognition! I've got a 2006 Civic Si Coupe swapped with a JDM K24A. You miss out on some of the super high revs, but the added torque is great for this platform. I'll likely do an oil pump and a k20 head to get some more revs and power out of it.

  • @theweeze1922
    @theweeze1922 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I miss my 2011 SI coupe with the 2.0, but I love my ‘15 ILX 6-Speed with the 2.4 with the extra torque

    Who ever modded this car definitely has issues getting laid, If you own a 8th gen, Stock rocks!

    • @seattlejdmcivic
      @seattlejdmcivic หลายเดือนก่อน

      Well on the outside it's almost completely stock other than the wheels the front lip rear lip side skirts and spoiler all came as a stock option on the hfp Honda factory performance package which on certain generations of Honda was a very limited number you can get that came with the front lip rear lip side skirts spoiler lower stiffer suspension sometimes bigger wider Wheels bigger brake package to give it a more aggressive look and more sporty feel
      The wheels are definitely aftermarket and it probably has coilovers on it........I haven't watched the full review yet...... but the hfp suspension does come an inch lower than the regular SI but when you look at a basic 2006 to 2011 SI Coupe and then look up an hfp version you will see how much better and more aggressive it looks compared to the regular one that looks much less aggressive and looks a lot more round and less sharp edges and curves

    NgL I have more fun driving my stock 2010 FA5 than my 2013 ISF 😊

  • @bwofficial1776
    @bwofficial1776 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I always thought the Si was the Mexican model. A guy at my college had one of these, scraping the ground with exhaust that sounded like a small plane and a front fender made out of license plates hammered together.
    That family sounds like they would have owned a Camaro IROC-Z back in the day because of the name.

    I had an 07 that I bought in 09, had 40k miles on it, paid it off and drove it to 170k miles. Only thing I had to do is replace the clutch and rear driver side hub assembly. That’s it, I couldn’t kill this car and it lived at 8200 rpm

    This car slept on I’m on my second fg2 now.. 8thgen si slowly showing itself ppl can talk all the shi they want on this car but don’t know what that k20z3 lsd trans is capable of

  • @jonmcclane7433
    @jonmcclane7433 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I love my 8h Gen. It’s identical to this one but I put Enkeii wheels on it and tinted my taillights. I’m holding onto mine with the hope that it will go up in value in the next couple years. Mine is a Unicorn because it only has 22k miles.

    So, I know this is definitely not car related but I really like this little interview with John in this one, if I could make a suggestion... Maybe it would be possible to ask the community what they think about this passage and incorporate more of this in the future?
    I'm sure it would be pretty interesting to hear stories about the filmed cars first hand!
    But again, this is just a humble suggestion.

    One of the few times that modding the steering wheel buy removing the air bag actually made the car safer. In the age of deadly airbags.

    id say the cup holder placement isnt that great with the shifter being there but other than that timeless interior

  • @Hobotraveler82
    @Hobotraveler82 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I like these Hondas. But every Honda i find has a blown engine or a bad transmission. Thats why ive owned Acura I've owned an 87 Legend, 96 RL, an 02 TL, an 06 RSX, and a 12 TSX. The only Honda ive owned is a 4door 08 Civic LX auto. Good car. Just c'mon man! Quit blowing motors. 😊❤

    • @raspberrypizzza359
      @raspberrypizzza359 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That’s more the owners neglecting them though. Common with Honda/toyota owners because the buy them in the first place usually by reliability reputation which means they think they can cheap out on maintenance
