Re: Car names and Abbreviations
This is my understanding...
those names are generally chassis codes, you can find them in the VIN number, they differ from JDM/USDM then by year and car for the letters, the number can tell you what motor.
for example
DC4 is a non Vtec 94-01 integra
DC2 is a Vtec 94-01 integra
EG would be a 92-95 honda civic hatchback
EJ a coupe 92-95
ek would ne 96-98
em 99-00
hope this helps a little

Re: Car names and Abbreviations
if you look at your vin tag on your front windshield, i think it will say
2HGFG2***********
that is where it originates from
which is the chassis code. and if you dont know what a chassis code is, its pretty much a name for a specific chassis.
think of it like your parents naming you and your siblings. same sh*t
and the chassis codes are usually the 4th thru 6th letter in the vin tag.
