besides the motor. i know for a fact that the vx has a 1.5 105hp, and the si puts out 125hp.

anything else besides sunroof too?

Si's w/ abs have rear discs. And Si is heavier.

VX all around is a lighter car. Kinda like the hf crx is or the cx hatch. The brakes are smaller, no features!!!!

Finally I can use my thread that I took so long to type up

Thanks for playing.

Depending on the year and options that were picked, there can be quite a few differences.

The 94-95 civics had front driver and passenger airbags, while the 92-93s only had driver side airbags
The Si has :
power mirrors
rear wiper
intermediate setting on the front wipers
body colored mirrors
four wheel disc brakes
select models had ABS
larger capacity gas tank
a little sunshade above the rearview mirror to block sun that the main sunshades don't
extra bracing in the roof because of the structural weakness due to the moonroof
MUCH more tar for sound deadening adding to its much greater weight than the vx
the tranny is much better than the VX tranny
optional cruise control
a stock tachometer
power steering with a 15:1 steering ratio as opposed to the 19:1 manual steering rack of the VX
and stock front lip

There may be some other stuff I missed, but I think I got it all. Feel free to fix any errors that I may have made.

Neither if you want some power. In all seriousness though, get the SI. It has little power goodies and a sunroof that make it more enjoyable to drive if you aernt planning on making it into a speed demon. I/h/e won't do much for power, but will probobally net you a mid 15 second 1/4 mile time.

if not going to do much, then go with the one that has the most power which would be the si.

In that case, get the Si. It will benefit more from the mods you listed. You can always remove all the extraneous **** from the interior, the sound deadening tar, all that.

VX OWNZ YOU!!!!!


naw man DO NOT BUY THE VX IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A "QUICK CAR". the tranny on the VX is soo damn long even if you had more HP still would be slower then ****.

get the SI

I Race rednecks

HUBCAPS SUCK

VXs DO come with a front lip spoiler..and they DO come with a tach..unlike what the guy a few posts above said...oh, and i've heard they came with a rear bumper diffuser type spoiler too...haha..VXs rule!...

tz-devil77

the wheels are 13's, yes light but have little room for bigger brakes if you keep htem stock!!!!!!!!!!!

bardo

i got a 93 hatch si...4 wheel disc break...comes with sunroof and power everything..the si hatch is the only 1 that comes with all power...windows, locks, mirrors, sunroof...and the si hatch comes with the sohc vtec opposed to the other motor...pretty sure the si is the only have that comes with power steering too not sure tho..i know my cx didnt...oo not a big deal but it has the rpm gauge too on the cluster

the p/s rackss on the 92-95 civic are 17.5:1, not 15:1. i wish they were 15:1..... that would be awesome

92-95 civic si's did not have power windows or locks. they can/could be converted from a EX coupe, but stock they did not have these features.
