Alright so Im back in the game again after selling my first hatch, Im back. So here are a few rants/questions.... about a hatch I bought

Why do I have mouldings on this CX model??

The previous owner put creases in the driver door when he swiped a tree, can these creases be removed??

The threads on the screws on the hatch where the struts lay on the glass part of it are loose and cant hold the strut... can I buy these screws at the dealership seperately??

Thanks.

- Previous owner could have added moldings.
- Creases can usually be repaired, but sometimes, if it's really bad, some find it cheaper to pick up new doors from a junkyard, swap them, and have them repainted.
- threads on my window mounts were broke on both sides when I got my hatch, went to the dealer, think they were 4 bucks each.

thanks... does anyone have any rough estimates of how much a door goes for now a days??

Are coupe doors and hatch doors the same??

As far as an exhaust goes, you won't find one for the CX or VX models.

The CX and VX have the catalytic convertors in their exhaust manifolds, so their exhausts are longer than the DX and Si ones.

Companies do make exhausts for the DX and Si though, so really it's a matter of buying one of those if you must and then having a muffler shop extend the exhaust to meet up with the CX cat which is much farther towards the front of the car than the DX or Si.

My suggestion?

Forget about an exhaust until you get a better engine.

Sorry to say but no intake or exhaust will make that 70hp CX any faster. Those motors are 100% ****. No I'm not trying to **** you off man, because I've got a 1990 STD model with 70hp and back in high school I added parts to the car to try and make it faster and it doesn't work my friend. I'm just trying to be realistic.

If you indeed have a CX (with added side moldings?) then you've got a great platform to build upon. I used to own a 1992 Si hatch with a swap and I put it back to stock to buy a CX and put that same swap in the CX. The CX is hands down quicker because it weighs like 280lbs. less than the Si did.

Good luck, and if you have any questions feel free to ask here.

I think they are, I'm using door panels from a coupe in my hatch.

the front half of the coupe is the same as the hatch.
