Thanks for all the kind words.
The 88s are lighter, however, there was no Si in 1988. 1989 was the first year of the 3 door Si.
The car is astonishingly clean, and VERY easy to work on. EGs really are superior in almost every aspect, but I love this little EF. The hatch spoiler and the mudflaps get my heart going every time, lol.
And yes, the SER is great because of it's weight, but I don't know many SERs under 2000 lbs with full interior.
I'm working on a tshirt design that I want to wear to car meets. It's going to say "WHY?" on the front, with the H as a honda symbol, and on the back it's going to have a detailed suspension diagram of the rear double-wishbone suspension.
