I know it's a newbie question, but is there a reference somewhere that explains what the different letter designations mean?

Thanks

Well accually, it's not just hatchbacks you can call ek or eg. You could call coupes and sadans of the correct year by these names also. The ek,eg,ef,ep...etc refers to the chasis of the car. heres what i know:

CIVIC's
88-91 EF (CRX, civic)
92-95 EG (civic, del sol)
96-00 EK (civic)
02-?? EP (civic)

INTEGRA's
90-93 DA (integra)
94-01 DC (integra)
02-?? DC5 (RSX)

PRELUDE's
92-01 BB (prelude)

S2000's

I dont hjow correct it is but the Haynes manual refers to teh

2 door D16Y5 as EJ7
3 or 4 door D16Y8 as EJ8
2 door B16A2 as EM1
