GS and HS are different classes with the same rules (I think, 93,Revy correct if needed). 93's HS Lx runs Si front struts, Si front swaybar and stupid stiff rear Blistiens. Right now, there isn't much out there for the Si to up grade to unless you go custom. So, with the Lx's less weight and easier to upgrade parts, it can beat an GS Si. Stock for stock, I dont know. On a real road course, the Si will own the Lx. On an Auto X course where being able to change direction really fast is more important than straight line performance, the Lx with its lower weight, should beat an Si. Also, at such low speeds both cars are going to handle nearly the same at the limit (which you cant find on the street, unless you have roads like I have
) so the handling advantage the Si has is really negated.
Honda, My girl has a 4 year old and he climbs right in to his seat AND buckles it himself. So soon, you wont have to reach back there at all.
