Can someone please tell me the difference between a CX hatch and DX hatch(96-00) thanks!!

 

CX's are cheaper and lighter, for racing purposes go with the CX

 

DX=Acceleration (0-60 mph): 8.6 sec. Road Holding Index: .77 g
Base Number of Cylinders: 4 Base Engine Size: 1.6 liters
Base Engine Type: Inline 4 Horsepower: 106 hp
Max Horsepower: 6200 rpm Torque: 103 ft-lbs.
Max Torque: 4600 rpm Drive Type: FWD
CX Basically the same but the weight is different CX 2222lbs DX 2343

 

so i would go wit the CX cheaper and better

 

+1 on the cx

 

i dont think that u r aware that the CX is equipted with honda all famous 8valve 4 cylinder engine that barely makes 80HP i believe but the power to weight ratio is basically the same so u dont notice it that much

96-00 CX and DX have the same 106 HP 16 valve D16Y7 *** clown.

 

cx has no side molding and dx does

Thats funny considering BOTH the CX's I've owned had moldings, and so has EVERY 96-00 Civic I've seen (unless they were shaved)

Alot of misinformation in this thread.

Welcome to Sunday night on H-T.

96-00 CX is a 96-00 DX with a lot of the standard equipment stripped out, which is why it's lighter (and was cheaper).

No radio or speakers, for starters. Though I forget what else they ripped out...

 

rear wiper

cx = no
dx = yes

third brake light

cx = no
dx = yes

edit: i meant to say the rear spolier with the 3rd brake light. it is smaller.

^^^

the motor accounts for some weight right there...

edit-wiper motor I mean

very true, up here in WI or anywhere they salt the roads you'll see most CX's have worse rust than other Civics..

and yeah side moldings weigh under a pound lol.

also I'm not 100% sure but CX's prob don't have a dash mat as well. And at least 5th gen CXs, maybe 6th gens as well don't have power steering

 

dx and cx have the d16y7 and they are nearly the same... the side moldings are insignificant you brain dead retards, you think that 3 lbs in plastic accounts for that weight difference, keep those gay *** comments to yourself... here is the bottom line, if you arent doing a motor swap into either, they are both slow pieces of ****, say no more

 

the cx is the cheapest version...the dx is alittle better stock vs stock.....in my 1st cx the motor barely hit 100mph and my 2nd dx hit about 120mph....so the motors a little better....and i believe dx comes with tilt wheel

hahahahah.......... just get wich ever one is cheaper dx, cx.

 

&lt;Proud owner of a 96 CX...106hp of raw non vtec power and no power steering which is one way to work out your arms.

 

I'm not 100% but doesn't the CX also have a smaller gas tank? my old CX only took aroung $13 to fill up from empty
