Default Pic request: for an ek hatch...

To no avail with searching, I can't find any ek 96-00 hatches with an ITR and/or GSR muffler/axleback installed. I would like an idea of how it looks, and is there any fitment issues?

Someone here in the boards must have an ek with an ITR or GSR muffler. I've always liked the idea of it. Plus I like the polished tips they come with Why I ask, I'm contemplating buying an ek hatch real soon.

COntemplating buying the hatch but won't do it until you see what an OEM exhaust looks like on it? hmmm. I'm sure a pic will pop up soon, just go ahead and get the EJ.

No, I'd buy it regardless, I just want an idea of how it looks, not really liking the EJ that much. I'm leaning towards the EK hatch.

only japanese civic type r's are called ek's, amercian civic hatchbacks are called ej6


and the type r/gsr muffler will not just bolt onto the civic, it will need to be modified to fit,,, ie cut and welded,, different lenght rear sections betweent the civic hatch and the itr

Fixed, sorry I completely forgot, since this will be my first "EK" EJ hatch. After owning other honda vehicles.

Only huh....? Because last I checked the "Japanese Civic Type R" was actually NOT the only Civic throughout the world with the chassis code EK.
