I have a 2000 Civic 2dr EX (USA Spec)

What Generation is this?

What model is my civic? EF? EG? or what?

and finally does anyone know what the stock motor model number is. ( SOHC VTEC )?

you don't know? haha!

someone please help chris!

 

ohh aaron you douchebag!

 

eg 96+

ef is 92-95 right? it goes in alphabetical order

 

So if i Have EG was the first one EA? and therefore i am Generation7 I am confused.. but i need to know this info before i start adding the wrong parts to my car

 

No 96-00 is EK
92-95 Eg
88-91 hatch/crx EF

 

and yours is the sixth generation civic and it is EK

 

great Thats awesome.. one more thing i need is the specs on the 1.6 SOHC Vtec that it comes with .. what model # is it?

 

ek, eg, ef etc. are chassis codes
the ek=96-00 hatch
eg=92-95 hatch...
these are both hatches... i dont know what the coupes are

for example;
dc=94-01 2 door integra
db=94-01 4 door integra

dc2=2 door type-r
db8=4 door type-r

ek9=civic type-r

 

this topic is talked about soo much. to all the chasis code guru's explain this one. everyone thinks the 96+ civic is the ek. ie. the civic type r is the ek9. well then... why is my car (00 civic hatch) designated as an "EJ" along with a friend of mine's 96 hatch which is also designated as an "EJ" in the vin number...

peace,
brian

 

i don't know about that one, it depends on where the chassis was put together. for example, my chassis is from canada and it is a 92-95 supposed to be eg, but something else. (i'll have to look to see what it is again).

for nyc racer: do you need the engine code? i'll check my girlfriend's 98 sohc vtec engine. if that is the year you need. i believe it's d16y. not sure, but, like i said, i'll check to make sure.

 

because in 2000, Honda was testing various performance aspects of the ek and put GSR motors in the test vehicles with SOHC valve cover. those units weren't supposed to have left the factory but three showed up missing. Didn't you notice your car feeling faster than most?

 

the sohc valve cover wouldn't fit over the gsr engine.

 

duh, I was joking.

 

92-95 civic EG
96-98 civic EJ
99-00 civic EK

Civic EX, 6th generation, 96-00, 1.6L SOHC VTEC = D16Y8

 

havent seen this post in a while. i should just take a picture of my car with the vin number or somthing. its a 2k civic hatch and the vin says EJ not EK. why do ppl keep saying that the 6th gen civics are EK's
