I own an siR.
Mine is lowered on coilovers and is still pretty comfy.
Don't know alot about Honda but i'm asuming the esi will be a D series engine and not the B?
Mine has and ITR LSD gearbox which gives really good grip.
I highly rate them. Always loved the shape of the EG aswell.
This is mine

Bro had 1 with some breathing mods and it pulled 141bhp.Was pretty quick tbh.Didnt feel fast but when you looked at the speedo go up and had a go with other cars of similar power etc,you knew it was decent.

isnt that the single cam one? tbh i dont think they are great when you can get the b engines, they are stupidly quick and have amazing vtec on them compared to the single camed ones

got a feeling is the D16Z6 in these, SOHC 16V with VTEC, not a bad little engine by most reckoning.
the esi has always been alittle in the shadow of the VTi which means bargains can be had though
