They are chassy codes, I think EG and EK refer to hatchbacks considering I have a EJ (a 6th gen coupe).

I hate those letters by the way.

What do you mean makes up? Be a little more specific please...They are two different cars from two different generations of Civic body styles. One is the 92-95 Civic (EG), and the other is the 96-00 Civic (EK).

Oh ****, be careful. Here it comes. Just to clarify, I think that the EG and EK chassis codes refer to the jdm models, and here in the states they have different codes. Be careful, there are some people who are very very touchy on this subject.

almost right. those code are refered to JDM civic(HB and 4 door), EG = 92-95, EK = 96 - 00
however, US uses different code.
