Which Civic is the lightest....?

[cukakula]

hi all honda owners.......

just want to share your honda civic's knowledge.....
by comparing the honda civic's weight, which is the lightest to the heaviest...?

1) civic ef 2 door
2) civic ef 4 door
3) civic eg 2 door
4) civic eg 4 door
5) civic ek 2 door
6) civic ek 4 door....
7) civic ek 9 type r

what is the ranking from lightweight to heavyweight?
can anyone please arrange the ranking?
i've been wondering because i heard some say ef 4 door almost the same weight with eg 2 door and ek 2 door is heavier than ef 4 door.... course ef (9) 2 door with B16A have the most advantages of all the civic's family (the lightest)... can anyone can share some light here...... thank you....
note: we are talking road car not stripped car...

From my point of view,

The 2 door EF is the lightest, if you remove the insulation, carpeting, sound proofing material, plastics, I think high 8xx kgs possible.

The heaviest would probably be the EK 4 doors.

Ah! that last part didn't appear when I first replied. :P

Still the EF will be the most lightweight.. The EF and EG 2 door variants don't really have a lot of differences in terms of weight.

ofcoz ef la
hvnt reach 1 tone also
ek ah... 1.2 ton kua

the lightest civic to date should be SB3/SB4. It's about 850kg in stock form.

Weight reduction that do not harm the drivabilities include:

1. Change to bucket seat
2. Lightweight rims
3. Remove spare tyre

You probably can reduce 50kgs from these stuff.

2nd gen civic is 790kg stock i think.....

The newer the car, the heavier it will becomes.. coz all the improvement & gadgets (ABS, power/electirc everything, imrpoved insulations, etc) that made standard to the car will increase generation by generation.

Civics generally getting larger & larger each generation.. hence the increase in weight - most of other production cars in fact are. Comparing EF with EG/EK is like comparing apple & watermelon....

Besides, what the point comparing the weight between EF & EG/EK?

 

[amdfaisal]

you can find the specs of your civic here... in japanese but when you see the 'kg' that's the weight of the car.

the heaviest EK4 sedan = 1160kg if i understand well the numbers on the honda webpage

i driving EG 4 door.....is abit heavy for me....if you not consider about 4 door go for the 2 door EG. The look is better then EF and the weight is almost the same too...

[lightningfield]

E-EF8 is the lightest amongst the B-series-engined car throughout 1991-2001 region.

 

[orc3368]

CRX might be the lightest but remove the big back windscreen 1st laaa lol

 

[hattech-v]

[gtmaniac]

Well.. to reduce the weight of the driver is even more expensive.. keh..keh.

Marie Claire Bodyline, anyone..?

 

[hattech-v]
