The 92-95 EX coupe was only made in North America (they sold them in Japan but they were marked as Honda of America not Honda Motor Co.) and was not sold as the Si in Canada. No EJ Civic was supposed to wear an Si badge. The SiR thing in Canada started with the 99-00 Si Coupe, but I have no idea why. I'm fairly sure that the 92-95 EH3 Si's weren't called SiR in Canada, as the 92-95 SiR II was marketed in Japan with the B16, optional ABS and Optional LSD. The original SiR was the EF9 in 91, also with a B16. It seems to me that the SiR badge required a B16 in order to have the designation, and I'm almost 100% sure that there was never a 92-95 Civic in North America marketed with a B16 (del sol's don't count).
