Default EF 4dr. seats in a hatch?

EF 4dr. seats in a hatch, will they fit with no modifications. I have CRX Si seats and they don't fit, and there is someone locally who's selling some seats out of a 4dr EF, do they fit? I need to know, ASAP.

They wont directly bolt in if thats what your asking. My friend put HB seats in his sedan and he had to swap the rails. So in your case you'd have to put your HB rails on the sedan seats in order to utilize all four seat mounting bolts. If you want to run just three bolts then the seats should work no problem.

Thanks for the info. I don't have my stock rails, all I have are CRX Si seats.

B20's are probably my favorite B series motor. Ya they dont have vtec but the torque is worth it. It pulls well. The motors no longer in the sedan its going in the HB and getting a vtec head. I guess i should say B20vtec's are my favorite motor. Great torque and vtec top end whats not to like

Check. I'll be going the B20 Vtec route later on. You had a B20 in an EF LX? I thought there would be problems with hood clearance.

No clearence problems at all. I had a B20vtec setup in an '87 HB also and it had no hood clearence problems either. i think it sits pretty much at the same height as a B16.

No, not the B20 vtec, the stock B20, I thought there was hood clearance problems with those.

You'll have clearence issues if you use the B20 intake manifold.
