thanks for the reply but all those cars have different engines making it different weight. i'm going to be doing a swap and wanted to know the difference, basically the 96-01 bodys are out of the picture cuz thier too heavy. but i wanted to know the weight difference between a 92 coupe and 92 hatch w/ the same motor, same options. thanks

Let me explain about the motor and engine thing.there are many differences between the cars of different trims due to extras that come on each,all the D series motors weigh within around 10 pounds of each other,so the motor is neglegable the weight comes from sound deadening,different size wheels,mechanical options like sunroofs and power windows,ac,ps,etc...

In I believe 94 the vx gained about 2lbs from the passenger side air bag,making the cx the lightest 5th gen.That's the difference,the options,do you know how much rear disc weigh as opposed to drums?It's a lot,probably a good 15lbs.
