looking a getting a 1996 HX coupe 5 spd


just wondering are they extremely slow.


thanks

 

yes..much slower than a ex or even a lx.if you get one, save up for a swap. from what ive heard the hx "fuel economy" motors arent that tuneable

 

haha, too bad your extremely wrong...it will surprise you and it is DEFINITELY faster than lx's....some EX's...a few factory turd LS's...

i dont know what makes it this way but im sure the roller rockers have something to do with it. i dont konw what really to say...but 00civicgirl is very wrong..and probably doesnt have any knowledge backing up her statement. if you have any questions about the HX just PM me.

 

yes its slow.

slower then an ex. not slower then an lx.

but none of them are fast either....so buy it if you want it.

 

i don't expect to be fast just able to go up a hill with down shifting.......I know the are faster than a lx.

thanks

 

yea, they have Vtec-E....haha just ask tommy.

 

VTEC-E is the shit. matt says its loud? nobody else does though.

 

all you want to do is be able to get up and down hills without shifting and don't care about speed get and automatic anything

 

HX sucks in repair cost 5 wire O2 (factory only) price one of those out one day. OTT it's just another EX w. better gas milage.

 

hx doesnt suck in repair cost....besides the o2 sensor and some head shit...its the exact same as an Ex.
