Hello all, i will be finally purchasing my first Si. Previously owned 3 7th gen accords, 1 V6 Sedan 1 V6 coupe, and the most previous K24 Sedan. Also had a 7th gen Civic coupe with the ol 1.7 single jingle under the hood. Haven’t been able to get out of a Honda since day one and have no desire to get out of them! The new babe is a 2013 Si Sedan with just over 119k on it, 1 owner from Indiana. Found it through CarMax and it was shipped to me from GA and finally arrived! Shipping fee wasn’t too crazy and got here fairly quick. They haven’t supplied me the complete service history yet but I will be making sure I get it, but what are some of the first things you guys would recommend doing first to keep her running in top shape? I will be considering timing chain if not already done recently which I do have doubts on. Oil life on the IMID screen read 90% but I may do a oil and filter change anyways, what brand oil and filter are you guys running and recommend? Does need a good buffing and I may get a full paint correction while I’m at it. Tires are good, brakes are still good but I’m already looking into an upgrade for them. Shifter does feel like everyone describes and I’ve already got my eyes on the Acuity Shift Kit level 2. Clutch seems good but in the future I will be upgrading it just not set on which brand or stage yet but open to suggestions. Will be getting pics this weekend when I go pick it up. Thanks for reading all and look forward to the knowledge to come!
