WeaponR82's coupe

- Sat Aug 18, 2007 3:20 am #20300 Heres my new project! I dunno much about Civics but I'm gonna teach myself as much as I can from it. Its gonna stay clean and simple. I got the rims today with tires for $300 from a friend. So thats the first step. Its got Tein springs but Id like to go with a good coil over kit for cheap if anyone knows a good brand. Also I want to get a full handling kit like crossbar, and sway bars and the like. Again if you guys know a brand and set up that works, tell me! I've got a camber kit and HID's to install this week along with some maintenance. Thanks for looking and sending some info my way :thumb:
Crappy pics BTW:

- Sun Aug 19, 2007 1:32 pm #20376 ED/EE/EF is 88-91, 4th gen (comes in mk1 and mk2 88-89 and 89-91, in 89 a few where a mix of mk1 and 2)
EG is 92-95, 5th gen (it was perfect right away, no marks, no facelifts)
EK is 96-00, 6th gen (can't recall the years atm, but there is a pre-facelift and a facelift version, small changes in appearance)

I have;
- ED6 mk1 rear lower control arms,
- EE9 rear trailerarms with discbrakes,
- EE9 rear swaybar,
- EG6 front swaybar and lower strutbar,
- EG6 discs/callipers...
You can even swap to a complete Integra Type R 5 lug brake setup, ITR swaybars, etc...
The ITR is kind of a fancy EG coup? ;)

So it's a mix of a lot of things, you can use a lot of things from one model up or one model down, when driving an EG.

The EJ is kind of abracadabra to me; the EJ is not only the EG coup?, also some (early?) models of the EK are EJ...

Rota C8 :)

BTW, I just remembered a brand name for aftermarket swaybars;
Suspension Techniques.

Some are so big, you need to reinforce your rear-subframe, or the big swaybar will tear your subframe apart.
You could use an A Spec Racing 'subframe reinforcement brace', this will stop a swaybar from ripping your subframe to pieces.
