yup i remember there was something that made them different. I think the way the pipes were run they would hit the auto tranny. So yes they're different I'm 98% sure.

nope. both are the same. The only thing it would not fit is an HX auto because the tranny is much larger.

The only difference was from an LX to an EX, and that was the downpipe. But either can be easily modified to fit.

Civic_RedLine will become famous soon enough
forgot one problem, I have 5spd ex and if filter isnt on right, it gets stuck with the tranny cable thus making it impossible to shift in that situation.
