Post subject:  what jdm code is my car?

ok i have a 97 civic sedan. whats the jdm code for it. i always thought it was an EK but i wasnt sure what number went with it. then someone told me its an EM, once again,,,,not sure what number. so what is it. i went on Teins website and they have for 96-00 civic listed as EM1, EJ6/7/8. for some reason no EKs are listed. i thought the EJ chassis code was for the 92-95. anyways any help would be great because i have a chance to get a chassis code plate for my car if in fact it is am EM1! any help would be great. thanks guys! :eek:

You have an EJ6. usdm.

EM1's are Si's.

In Japan, a sedan could be an EK2, EK3 or EK4.

he wanted to know the JDM code, not the USDM code. I dunno about EKs but my EG(in japan) was an EH on the plate. But my sedan was an EG on the plate.

i do believe that the 96-00 sedans are EK models in japan... kinda the same with all our EJ models here in america... im not positive cause i owned a EF2 over there...
