Type R or not?

would you call a civic that took all the parts off an EK9, and put it on an EK4 chassis to get it complied, a type R?

I think so.
:)

No I wouldn't.

... easy to removed a replace window

if they are gone to enough effort to make you check things like that ... its more than likely that those little things haven't been over looked.

things like the 5 studs are better things to check as it isn't cheap to do the 5 stud conversion and for what it does for performance or looks [nothing], its unlikely they will fork out the money for it

I meant when the car is moving... it's impossible to see a 5 stud conversion when a car is in motion don't u think? What does the window have to do with the rear wiper?

thats what ive done, only i didnt do it for compliencing.
However, its a sticky debate that keeps being raised and a debate i always find my car the subject of.
To me, if the chassis is the original build JHMEK9### then its a type R.

I know the history behind this car too.
the guy was selling it, and wanted to swap it for my black EK4.

I went for a ride it in, it was pretty fast.
