I've seen a 96-98 Civic Coupe Type R from Japan. I don't know if it ever made it into production, but it was a definite possibility. RHD and everything that the normal Civic Rs have and CW paint only. But other than that, I don't know if they made any coupes.

As far as I know, there isnt any coupes in Japan. Only hatches and 4doors. The coupes are imported to them from either honda of america or of canada.

Coupes were EJ's from 92-00 except SI's which are EM's

Coupes were available in Japan, I know I live here and have lived here for the past 8.5 years! The EG style was an EJ and the EK style was a EJ as well. It is very rare, so rare that I haven't seen any here on Okinawa, but the EG look style I see everyday! The EK4 is the SiR/SiRII hatch and Si/SiII sedan. HofJ didn't differentiate between the hatch and sedan on the labeling between the 2 as they have in the past.

If there is ANY truth to the CTR coupe theory, could someone post a pic or a link??? This is something I've never heard of.

No coupes are made in the US, just Canada.

hey, if you see a few coupes there please snap me a couple pics so i can see the differences. I've seen a RHD coupe here in the states and the owner told me it was imported from new zeland, the funny thing is that it has a B16A from the factory. weird huh?

Brian,

Hey how's it going. Well I was going for sure this year but guess what, I got another damn speeding ticket, this one cost me ¥70000 ($560). So my trip to TAS was once again spoiled by my own doing I am definitely planning on the MotoGP at Suzuka in April. I should definitely still be here, so if you really plan on coming next year, I will plan on attending as well. As long as my brick foot can lay off the accelerator I should be able to go! Don't forget the Osaka show is also decent size and it falls in February, usually the second weekend of the month. Also if you do go, try and drag Tony along for the ride.

Chris
