Default Vi-RS here in Japan?

A guy here in Japan has a Vi-RS civic, I was wondering what engine does it have and what is the chasis code for it. It looks just like a 99-00 Si but it has 4 doors, it has the Si wheels, front lip, + rear lip, CTR headlights, and a great interior. I can't see through the tint to see what it redlines at. I'll post up some pics later.

The Vi-RS is an EK3 and comes with a D15B. It appears to be an upgraded version of the Civic Ferio Vi.

Some examples:

http://64.233.179.104/translat...a%3DG
http://64.233.179.104/translat...a%3DG

This page (which is a PDF) appears to list that the Vi-RS was produced from August 1998 to September 2000.

Also there is a link in my sig for the chassis codes. The copy of the JDM EPC I have does not list the Vi-RS, but I think either mine is a little too dated to have that model or that it is just considered a package on the Vi.

Pictures (note that the wheels and bra are not from Honda).
This link has a lot of information about it, along with a good photo of the interior and some other pics.
