The seller only has 67 sales.

I'd steer clear.

I didn't think the B16A3 came in any JDM cars. I know there's a few motors with a number at the end that are sold in Japan, but they're few and far between.

They're based in Chicago

Don't go through their eBay page if you buy from them. Look through their actual website.

Of course, but many places still call it '96-'00, even legitimate sellers. And in Japan 6th gen Civics started as '95s too... so it'd be '95-'00 there. It doesn't mean they had an extra year of 6th gens though. The US uses model years, which is why my car, which was built in the summer of 1997, is called a 1998 here. In many other countries it would have been called a 1997 though.

And people into 6th gens aren't really "EK" guys, if you want to nitpick. No 6th gen sold in the US was an EK, most people on this site probably don't really know that much about true EK chassis cars, and well, I'm not a guy either.

No, the EK4 hatch (Jordan, SiR, SiR II, VTi, VTi-R, VTi-S) also has a B16A. Some even have B16A2s I hear.

And the EM1, though it's known as an Si in the US, also comes in other countries with the B16A, though it's known in other countries as the SiR, VTi or the VTiR.

No problem. There's just a lot of confusion around chassis codes. I've been trying o clear it up for awhile.

A lot of people think all '96-'00 hatches are EK9s, or the '96-'98 hatches are all EK4. A lot of people think all '92-'95 hatches are EG6s. There's just a lot of misinformation out there.

Front clip. Axles. Brakes. Rotors. Block. Transmission. Dashboard.

All of that is gonna cost you a bit.

Ebay **** you should avoid. If anything, the seller would of placed the whole price instead of the current bid and shipping. Shady ebay sellers are . . . . shady like that.
