the b-pipe of either hatch/coupe/sedan are the same length.. it's just the axle-back of the hatch is shorter than the coupe/sedan..
seeing as the coupe/sedan share the same length chassis, i'd assume that they have the same length axle-back and mounts..

so yes, it should be a bolt-on..
if not.. VERY minor mods..

i agree on the length, imo they should bolt on. dc > eg sedan/coupe are interchangeable/.

i wouldn't count on that...
The cat back for the EM1 is slightly different to the EJ8 and they are practically the same cars- though I'm pretty certain it is only due to the fact that stock cat's were different lengths, so you may be lucky... Careful with the placement as well that you don't touch the bottom of the shifter as that is annoying too (tigher in 5th and reverse and at high speeds it rattles/squeaks) and it would limit you from changing shifters.
