Does 4 door EG have longer wheel base than a Hatch??
thinking of building a race car, i had a EG hatch(JDM B18R), it's no doubt really fast, but on faster corner, it's not as stable as i wanted to, so i am wondering if the 4 door has longer wheel base when compare to the hatch, and will the longer wheel base help in faster corner?
also, can anyone confirm the weight of a 4 door EG, it's a 92 LX(Canadian model), no power windows, locks, etc....i read a thread which said it's 2275lbs, just want to make sure......
don't know if all these makes sense, let me know what you guys think
Thanks in advance

I'm almost 100% they all have the same wheelbase. Only difference is the rear overhang on the hatches are shorter. I know that's how it is on the 6th gens.
Wade through the side by side comparison on Kbb.com and you can find out for sure.
EDIT: Now Dustin has me thinking....
After checking on Kbb.com
These are the wheelbases for a 99 hatch and a 99 SI coupe and a 99 fo do respectively
Wheel Base 103.2 inches 103.2 inches 103.2 inches
