i want to know if the difference between the shocks and springs on the 2 cars?? is it possible to swap over the shock and springs from my sir to the delsol? if not, what are the differences?

 

I'm guessing the SiR is a del Sol as well...? I thought the engine was the only mechanical difference, but I could be wrong.

 

I think he's refering to the 99-00 Civic SI(R). There is one small difference, but I can't remember what it was. You can put del sol/92-95 springs and struts on the 96-00 with a small modification, but I don't think it can go the other way. Someone who knows can chime in now Of course you can always swap between 94-00 Integra suspension bits all you want.

 

The rear shocks have a slightly different size bracket that bolts to the lca's on a 6th gen civic. Other than that, the only difference MIGHT be a slightly stiffer spring on the SiR. If it is different, it's like going from teg Ls springs to GSR's....

 

I never knew there was a Civic SiR...I thought it was the Civic Type R...?

 

the civic SiR is the canadian version of the 99-00 civic Si

 

There was also a JDM and EDM SiR

 

The Civic SiR was introduced in Japan in '89. The Civic SiR-II followed in '91.

These two cars, along with the 89-92 Integra XSi and RSi, are where most imported B16A's come from.

 

I hath been educated.

 

SiR = B16a

Type R = B16b
