This is a 1998 JDM Honda Torneo SiR-T CF4, basically identical to the JDM Honda Accord CF4 but with a different badge. It's quite different to the larger NZDM Gen 6 Accords we got in New Zealand, which I think are the US model.

It's powered by a blue top F20B motor, which is basically a de-stroked version of the 220HP red top H22A. The F20B in the manual accords like mine is 200HP, the F20B in the auto SiR is 180HP. Why they call it a F series is beyond me, most parts are shared with the H22 series.

This model also has things like factory anti sway bars, HID headlights, electric power steering and mine even has a factory fitted mugen exhaust system, but only from the factory exhaust manifold back Would be nice to get some mugen headers for it.

The SiR-T was replaced in 2000 by a model called the Euro-R, which has the 220HP red top H22A, body kit (some SiR-Ts also have a simple body kit), 16" alloys and probably even better suspension. The auto SiR was discontinued at the same time. I'll find a nice pic of a Euro-R, they look awesome.

Only mod so far is the audio. Kenwood CD head unit, DLS speakers front and rear run off a MTX Thunder 4320 amp and an Alpine Type X 10" sub (1000w RMS) run off a Rockford Punch 600w monoblock.

Plans include a cold air intake (available as an after market kit), Euro-R cluster (while face dial with red lights) and a simple factory looking body kit.

The sir t is really nice. My wife has a 2000 Accord and its definately a little smaller in comparison.

Does the wagon have auto climate contrtol? Those wagonsare popular here in the states and yours even has an h22 stock. The wagons over here come with the f22.

almost looked like a bmw for a sec there.

[Hash_man_Se_i]

Thats awesome, really nice cars... I'm a sucker for the wagon though, one day I'll get one.

[Steve_Si]

Strange that you guys don't get a H22A wagon, as all wagons were made in the US, then shipped to Japan (then to NZ when they get sick of them).

It has climate control, I think all import gen 5 accords do.
