if you want an even lighter car with more potential then get a ae86. but the thing is, i think your asking what to get and you'll never have the money. anyone can dream, but im willing to bet(and i could be wrong) that you'll never have the money to buy a spoon engine and have it installed(with the other spoon parts) or to properly do a turbo build up. and if you were told the hatch was better would you sell your car for a hatch? from what i've herd, the 6th gen civics dont have a huge difference in weight between the hatch and coupe, its the 5th gen hatches that are really light.
oh and for the h22 not getting traction in any gear... he's talking about putting that muych power to the wheels eventualy anywyas.. why would it make a difference if its coming form an h22 or a b18. and remeber, when you have a powerful car you no longer need to floor it around every turn just to get to the store. any real performance cars(supras vettes etc.) can easily break the tires loos if they just gun it, thats what happenes when you have more power. if you serious about an h22 swap go for it,. if its done right, with suspension and tuning, you should be fine.
im willing to bet that a year from now you still have that d16 though
(fianls week and i havnt slept much)
