this is refferring to the letters in your VIN number. Most 92-95 hatchbacks in the united states carry "EH2" in the number. "EG6" is the model carried in Japan... I'm not sure which one (it might be the SiRII), but that's how I understand it.

its on your VIN. eh2 should be the proper term. EG is a more general term for the 92-95 civics. only cars that say EG in the vin are the del sols

Aren't 93-95 4Dr.s EG8?
By the way, your statement is entirely incorrect unless you add that it only pertains to U.S. cars.
