CRV vtec in a coupe.. sure...
eg is a well loved car for modding. I think it's a liter chassis than the ek or ej...But not positive...

There is no Si coupe in those years (there are 2 different generations you are refering to; 92-95 and 96-00). The Si Coupe came out in '99-'00. There is an Si hatchback from '92-'95 or an '92+ EX coupe maybe you're refering to.
And yes the 5th gens ('92-'95) are lighter.

So, what does this have to do with anything?

I think he was implying something a little more mechanical in nature

The unevenness usually isn't that bad, is it? And if you get coilovers in the first place you can correct it.

You got some problems with your suspension then. Did you buy some egay springs? maybe some bushing or other suspension component is messed up. This is not supposed to happen.

Im glad im not the only one with the gangsta lean!
From talking to people just around SC, its pretty common for the EG civic to lean to the drivers side a little bit.
