98-99 for certain, probably 2000-2002 also. 2-door & 4-door should not make any difference. DX, LX, EX, should be the same.

Possible problem with the ULEV-VTEC (California) because it's a whole different type of ECU, so if YOU have one of those, I'm not sure what to tell you.

Can't use 97 & earlier, because they used a cable from the throttle body. Beginning in 1998 that function was moved into the ECU software.

Can't use any V-6 tranny cause it's completely different.

Can't use ANYTHING from 2003 & newer because it's also completely different.
