Hi, ive loked but couldnt find the answer.

what model they are
ie. ek4 is the vti-r
ek9 is the optioned model with recaros and stuff
others will know more about this but that is the general idea.
my eg4 was a gl
and an eg6 is the b16a vti-r
you understand?
I am confusing myself now i think
96'-2000
Ek4 = Gen 6 Civic Hatch/sedan(ferio) Vti-R/SiR II EK (b16a2+hydro clutch)
EK9 = Gen 6 JDM Civic Hatch Type R (b16b+hydro clutch)
EM1 = Gen 6 Civic Coupe VTi-R (b16a2+hydro clutch)
92'-95
EG6 = Gen 5 JDM EG civic Hatch SiR II (b16a2+hydro clutch) - Not Vti-R
EG9 = Gen 5 JDM EG Civic SiR II Sedan / ferio (b16a2+hydro clutch)
'89-'92
EF8 = Gen 2 JDM CRX SiR (b16a+cable clutch)
EF9 = Gen 4 JDM Civic Hatch SiR (b16a+cable clutch)
Feel free to point out any mistakes I've made..

The number is generally just the revision. Higher number = newer model.
so whats my 93 eg civic VTi?
also i haerd ppl talk bout eH?
93 Vti is either an EG5 or EG6
Check your compliance plate under the bonnet :)
Vti is EG5. I dont get why they kept it the same for the Vti and Si... why have the same chassis number? me no, know.
EG6 is jap spec only.
EG5 would be the Vti and Si model.
what about a 2001 model civic gli sedan what the model code for that

o and for my original 1 year old q, my car is a sedan, so its a EH
just curious...
for the ek civics:
Type R = ek9
Vti-R = ek4
then wat does:
VTI = ??
GLI = ??
CXI = ??
thanks in advance.. ^^
^EK1 la
96 coupe Vti..what is number... EK1?
Thats EJ8
Holy crap, i asked this question like 2 years ago.
O and as i said in 2006, my VTi is an EH9
is a dc5/r/s 4cyl?
yes la
new question
i want to buy an eg with the vtak
what eg is it?
eg6? and is that vti sir or what?
very confusion
JDM
eg6 = (b16a dohc vtec)(can't get here in AUS)
AUDM
eg5 = Vti / Si (VTi = sohc 1.6L vtec d16y1 | Si = 1.6L DOHC nonvtec d16a8)
eg4 = GLi/GL (gli = efi 1.5L | gl = dual carb 1.5L) + (late model 1.5L single carb breeze)
eg3 = breeze (carb 1.3L)
So, if you want an EG with vtec, your looking for eg5 vti model.
a thread started in 2005! ultimate thread revive lol
atleast he sticks to the one thread, and doesn't create a new one for each one.
Kudos to you chunky! :thumbsup:

Wrote the wrong engine code, D16y8 is a vtec engine.
Always though the Si engines were a dohc engine, but on closer inspection are infact a sohc engine. My mistake
incorrect..Quote:

EG4 also had the breeze model with the single carbie 1.5LQuote:

Ok i confused myself completely here..
I was correct the first time quoting D16a8, and it is a twincam engine with vtec-e. You can audibly hear the "vtec" kick in at 5000 rpm..
Very confused now
NO
it does NOT have vtec
ZZZZZ lol rebound u are lost kient too lol :P
just read my post probably, it is all correct there!!!
D16Y1 = EG VTEC SOHC
D16Y8 = EJ8 VTEC SOHC
D16A8 = DOHC NO VTEC
EG only comes DOHC VTEC is EG6, Which you can't get here in Australia unless it was privately imported!
And wth is vtec-e lol. You can't audibly hear any vtec in a d16a8, its probably just the POD filter your hearing. (Had someone else say they swore on there moms life there si sedan was vtec and you could hear it, and when i went to look, no vtec, and when driving, it was just a pod filter zzz)
lol thread revival
I'm just going to leave it as is then.. D16a8 twin cam no vtec.
Interesting question - do the numbers have any actual reference to the cars engine or the like? Ie the BMW 318i has a 1.8litre motor. Now I know the ek9 doesnt have a 1.9 litre engine, but is it meant to refer to anything else?
no, the numbers are just the trim level
