what are the weights of the crx.. ive heard anything from 1800-2200 depending on the trim. are they really that light? how much does an eg hatch cx weigh? i know my teg (sunroof/power everything) was 2580 with me in it (hehe and a bit of weight reduction) and im thinking an eg hatch with a b18a would be of similar weight to my teg?

yeah, the 92+ board is always arguing about what was the lightest EG hatch, and the result is always the 92 CX, if memory serves it is 2094lbs

id like to do that, but the crx's are so small and more rare. plus you can hardly ever find good deals on 92-95 civics.. everyone thinks they are worth 6-10g (canadain) and i know i could pick up a dx crx for like 3-5g. we'll see what happens, tomorrow is the big day :shocked:
That's nuts. I can find a 5th gen cx for about 1500 if I look for a week... Maybe find 2 or3 in that time...
And what's the formula? a 10th of a second slower for every 100 lbs you add... For the ease of the swap, I'd take the 0.2 seconds.

ya import cars are expensive here because every kid wants one for some reason.. then they put stickers on them and bag the fvck out of them. it sucks.
anyways theres only $5900 damage to my car so it looks like its going to get fixed! thanks for all the help everyone. hopefully one day i'll have enough for a crx and my teg.
