Default what are the differences between dx and si hatchbacks?

I need to know what else besides the engine is different in an si hatchback than the dx hatchback. Stuff like power steering, rear brakes, etc. I have no idea about 4 gen. civics what is different.

thanks for the reply's. Basically disregard all cosmetic stuff. Its going to become a racecar and just need to know mechanically what i need to do to convert the dx to si spec. it already has the engine ecu/ fuel injection stuff swapped on.

negative cappy tan. the ONLY 88-91 civic model with larger front brakes was the 90-91 EX sedan. DX and Si are the same. front and rear. period.

well unless your friend has changed to 90-00 Civic or 90-01 Integra Front brakes, all hatchbacks have the same brakes. Accually 90-91 EX are the only ones with larger brakes for the EF's the 10.3 inches while integras are all the same 10.3 also. Thanks for the backing Ham'merd.....Done too much research on the brakes to mess this one up....

DXs were Fuel Injection also. Dual Point FUEL INJECTION.

They also had the option of speaker pods in the back, I have them in my DX.
