Well the EG and EK are hatchcraps, and the ES is a Sedan. So the heaviest one should be obvious.
The EG is smaller than an EK, and is also lighter than an EK.

I just looked it up...
an EG is a little over 2200 lbs depending on trim level
an EK is a little over 2300 depending on trim level
and an ES is what? About 2600 lbs?

88 crx stock is 1800 lbs so the EF is the lightest my 88 hatch was 1890 from the factory the heaviest chasis probably would be the new sedans...but easiest and lightest would be the EG since mounts dont need to be bought from hasport to do b series swaps but the EF is my favorite since its so agile and light

It still doesn't change. It goes smallest to largest... the density of steel hasn't changed over the last several hundred years. Not to mention they've been increasing the amount of metal in cars because of the safety standards.
