Are u sure its a y1? because if it is, than its a older motor than y4 from ek1's, y1 is from eg5 vti

If it is a y1, than someone has done a engine swap, or maybe a mini-me swap, with the vtec head

check the engine stamp to confirm it

sorry man its a y8 ? so thats clearly sohc vtec yes? but since when do eks come with them...this is my first ek ive owned egs x 4 delsol x 2 integra dc2 n dc5 but first ek l0l

Check the stamped engine number to the rego first.

Sounds like its a CXI . Power windows and cluster is an easy conversion. Brakes on the other hand are harder.

I didnt know GLi's can come with ABS. Can u look for the ABS unit and the ABS lines?

lol the brake conversion is easier the power windows man

if its a y8, than some one has done a engine swap from ej8 coupe, non of the hatch back we got here came with y8, only y4's if im not mistaken

check ur front lca's whether it has a sway bar or not, gli's come with front sways where as cxi's dont come with any

im putting my money on engine conversion and power option conversion because im having wiring issues with my windows but it has power mirrors n shit..someones done some effort..also on the stamp on the front support it says ej8 ?

you have an ej8 then....? civic coupe from 96-98. it has power windows, mirrors and a tacho standard.

right, + SOHC VTEC D16y8 motor

A coupe is an EJ8 which is VTi, not an Ek GLi

Ej8 = Coupe Vti - D16y8 vtec
Ek1 = hatch back - d16y4
Eg5 - hatch back d16y1 vtec

Its obvious the last owner has done something here, check ur rego to the engine code an vin to be sure that its a legit swap
things is any d-series is a direct drop in, without changing the mounts, unlike goin from d to b-series

Im not sure as to electrical problem though

if the ek1's did come with abs, than that would mean those with abs drums can swap the ek1's abs disc brakes instead of using ek4's/em1's correct?

lol its not a ej its a ek..relax im not that noob..i no what shape it is and personally cant stand coupes or sedans..this is probly my 10th honda also..but my first ek

You didnt mention the EK's shape, so we assumed it was a coupe.

Aren't EK1's sedan only? I thought all hatches were EK4's in Oz? :confused:
