I believe all the EK's had Power Steering.

My EJ6 is non-power steering. 96 DX hatch.

CX manual: no PS
CX auto: PS
DX manual and auto: PS

all coupes and sedans came with PS

friend of mine has a 97 dx with no ps, but we have reason to beleive that the past owner took it out and left it out.

It is absolutley safe to remove. I took mine out about a year and a half ago and have never had a problem. Good luck!
