EK4 & EK??? Difference??

he bought the spindle so i am assuming from a jdm wrecker so it can very well be ek4.

to answer your question the ek4 is almost the equivalent of our em1 which is the SIR. if thats the case for the spindle it might be too big.

that might be cuz the jap ek4 sir was a hatch...not a coupe like our em1 sir. jay?

that model was sold in several countries other than japan....malaysia, thailand, philipines, UK etc. with versions 1 and 2. the key diff. as i said earlier is that their SIR is a hatch..while our SIR is a coupe (96-00 that is)

and i dont think the japs had a civic coupe like ours in their market. they always had the hatch or the sedan...or..a wagon (01-05 ES chassy)
