before 88 what were Civic's called? I'm looking for the pic of someone on the board that has a red civic before 88 with a new b-series motor in it. Anyone know what i'm talking about?

thanks

 

hmm im curious too. sorry to jack the thread, but my cousin just bought an older civic that uses a carb rather than fuel injection. what year did honda change over to fi?

 

no prob as long as both of our questions are answered...

what were civic's called before EF?

what year did civic's become fi?

anyone have a link of the old school red civic hatch with a new b-series motor?

 

before the EF's i think they were EA's

 

The real question I would like answered is.

My SiR is 00 so that makes it a EK right.
Is that just name for the generation?
Because the Chassis code is EM1?

 

they were all carb til 1985. in 85 the crx si engine code ew1 was pgm fi. in 87 the d15a3, which was the equivilant of the ew1 in 85 and the ew3 in 86 was pgm fi. in 88 all carbs were gon and engines were either pgm fi or dp fi.

 

ok and anyone know the red civic old school hatch with a new b-series in it?

 

bummp

 

EK is the JDM chassis code.

 

i think the chassis code for that civic hatch youre talking about is an EA...id find pics for you, but i forgot the username of the owner

 

1984 - 1987 Civic/CRX - AH/AD

 

ok thanks, anyone know the user name of the owner?

 

If that is the case why does it say in my Driver Door Jam Type EK

 

To clarify, I believe that the EK is the Civic Type-R. The Civic that people on this board commonly refer to as the EK is actually an EJ.

 

well ek is for only japan..but its not just the type r..all 96-00 hatches are eks i believe, the ek9 is the type r and ek4 was the sir, i dont even know if they had lower model hatches there. im not sure if coupes are eks, and i dont even think they have 96-00 coupes in japan. i could be wrongtho, but all i ever hear of are ferios (4dr) or hatches

 

i also wanna see this old school hatch with the b series. those old hatches are funny.

Your SiR or US spec Si is a an EM1. The other civic coupes from 92-00 are considered an EJ8. The EK refers to the japanese hatchback, EK9 being the Type R.

It was said that the old honda is an EA, I cant vouch for that though.

But the first Civics that were FI were the first Si hatches, which I believe were 86.

You're right, I forgot about that. The EK9 is the CTR. My USDM 2000 H/B is a EJ6.

the 92-95 civic coupes were EJ1's(Vtec D16z6) and EJ2's(D15B7)

 

thought those civics were EE

 

EA came before EF

Yes, it's an EK 96-00 Civics are EKs
EM1 is the specific coupe Si chassis code, it's in the VIN.
