Where is the weight difference between the two cars? IE is it more interior pieces, is it the sunroof assembly? Just curious (maybe ignorant, possibly retarded)

 

if i remember correctly the si weights about 4000lb. and the hf is about 2000lb.

 

i think hf is like 500lb less than si

 

4000lbs!!!?? I sure hope not!

There are a lot of subtle differences that add up to the weight difference. Such as:

Smaller front brakes, HF has 3mph bumpers and the SI has 5mph bumpers, the HF doesn't have the extra support in the doors, the sunroof, The engine is lighter, HF has a smaller gas tank, no rear wiper, no rear sway bar, HF has smaller tires, lighter seats.

This is just some of the items I know of. I am sure that there are many more. I think the 88 HF weighed about 1850.

 

BHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...4000 lbs.!!!!!...BHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!...sorry..I just thought that was really funny...anyway..here are the weights for 1988,1990,1991 USDM CRX's...The DX weights vary depending on wether you have manual or automatic transmissions...
1988 CRX - |HF - 1819lbs.| - |DX - 1922lbs.| - |Si - 2017lbs.|
1990 CRX - |HF - 1967lbs.| - |DX - 2103 / 2136lbs.| - |Si - 2174lbs.|
1991 CRX - |HF - 1960lbs.| - |DX - 2097 / 2130lbs.| - |Si - 2167lbs.|
Yes the 1990 CRX Si is the heaviest...which is the one i have....
And as wronghand said all of those places are where the weight difference is...I can't think of anymore off hand that he hasn't mentioned.

****! i'm glad I got the 88si!

 

Thanks for the info guys.

 

4,000lb!! LOL LOL LOL!!

 

what would be the fuel tank size difference with an 88hf... I am having to fill up manytime with my b16.. only 5-6 gallons at a time... It cant be that small.. but my fuel sending unit is on the fritz at the moment

 

the hfs have a 10.5gallon tank compared to the si's 11.5tank.....also the hfs dont have as much sound deadening as the si's.....4000?? shiet.....what kind of car did you get?? a cement truck?

 

dont forget the brake rotors are thinner and the seats are also lighter.

 

I have the same problem with my HF which has a 91 DX motor in it
every time I fill it it only goet to about 6 or 7 gallons

 

Wrong

Si's are 10.5
HF are 9.5

 

chiltons repair manual says 11.9 For Si and 10.6 for HF.
my factory owners manual also says 11.9..
