Default EJ1 coupe Si? seems like I have one

Well I've been reading up and it seems like the 94 coupes which have the VIN# 2HGEJ1xxxR are canadian and therefore Si's. Is this the case? If so I want to get an Si badge for my car instead of the boring sticker "Civic EX", if it's not the case I don't wanna put something on there that's not really what the car is. Also, I'm pretty sure someone swapped the gauge, because it reads primarily in MPH (don't the canadians read in KM/h?) - but I think someone swapped it because while I was installing my amber lighting I noticed that someone had used 2 diffeerent screws to re-attach the trim that goes in front of the cluster.

So, Si or not?

Some pictures:

my honda's from canada but that doesnt mean that it was sold there. thats just where it was made. so u having a mph gauge cluster is normal. and i thought that si's (those years) only came in hatchbacks? might be wrong but thats what i thought

if you bought it in canada and it has si on the back, its an si

otherwise its a usdm ex

btw, there is no difference except market and badge. and why change the badge, unless you have a canadian license plate, we all know its an ex

Civic Ex= Boring
Civic Si= z0mg!!!111 This is the fastest car i have eVar been in!!!

no one cares.....its not going to make your car perform any better, your car is not going to grow rear discs, spawn a K or B swap, or be Mad JDM tyt3.

If you are so concerned about how boring your ex is, go buy an Si.

if anything, you will make your car stand out more to theives so you can have a Slight Increase in performance badging

Si= HELLO THEIVES

Well, my car came without an emblem, so I have no idea. I think the regular "Civic EX" emblem looks dull - it's not even portruded. I was just wondering if it might be an Si as I think the Si badge with the bezeled civic emblem looks nicer. Yes I care about these details, what's the big deal with it? I just don't want to stick an Si badge there if it'd be grossly inaccurate. Then I'll just stick to a boring Civic EX sticker.

2HG means BUILT in Canada, not that it's a Canadian Domestic Market vehicle.

Just like my sister's USDM '98 Integra was built in Japan, but it's not JDM.
