Yes.

Consult above image:
A: goes into the wheel. Its the same on all these models.
B: Axel goes in here. Non-Vtec EK3 and Vtec EK3 are different. There are no differences between auto an Manual. Integras use EG8 Axel Joints. EK9, SiR, And CRV use the same Axel joint.
Even though the EK9 is a 5 stud spindle, the normal EK3 joint will fit.
As for the entire metal bearing housing. All EK Chasis work on each other regardless of VTEC or non VTEC. Integras will work, but the lower ball joint will not fit properly in the EK3 lower arm, and the EK3 uppe rball joint will not fit in the integra spindle.

EG9 SiR and EG8 are two completely different joints.
EG8 CV joint works on the EJ and DC2 but not on the EK3.

To add, 96-97 DC2 Type R will fit as they are 32mm. The 98-01 Type R were the 36mm ones that won't fit.

I had a eg8 CV joint home, tried to fit it on my eg9 axle but it was to small. So the eg8 and eg9 CV joints are different inside.
