I'm new to the honda scene... i'm coming from owning all fords...
i recently got a 2001 honda civic EX, 5-speed. i know i have the vtec, but i was wondering what engine code mine is, anyone know off hand?

also what is EG/EK??

thanks in advance... i appolagize for my newbieness

 

not a dumb question at all.. well your chasis code is I believe a EM2 ..
the engine is a D17?? ( I forgot what the rest was.. but you have a 1.7L SOHC vtec engine ...good luck with your car..don't worry about being new.. just don't ask us how to install strobe lights =P
almost forgot your 2nd question... EG refers to the Japanese Chasis code for 92-95 civics.. EK refers to 96-00 honda civics in japan..
and the EG or EK refers to letters found in the VIN number Example
