Default ej2 suspension upgrade

Will a sway bar from integra or ex fit my car, or do I need the control control arms too? What about rear?

I'm sure this question has been asked before. Let me know if you need me to track it down for you.

ej2 = 92-95 dx ?, if so yes, get the swaybar, brackets, bushings, endlinks and rear lca from a 94-01 teg non type r and it will bolt up, I believe the LS was 13mm and the gsr is 14mm

cool guys thanks, and yes ej2= dx 92-95. So I don't need the lower control arms from whatever car I get the swaybar in the front too? I've been racing this guy that lives around me on the local track and want to help out my civic since it's at a big disadvantage on power. Swaybars, strut brace, and koni yellows should help me out a bit from my stock setup?

lca= lower control arm.

unless the ones you currently have, already have the mounting points for the sway bar endlinks you need them, any 94-01 teg non type r will work

**edit **
re read your post, I don't believe the dx's had a front swaybar stock so you will need the front lca as well if you you want to put one on the front

You will have massive oversteer if you have no front swaybar and install a rear one. In case you didn't know.

They didn't have a front sway bar.. He will most likely have to swap the front lower control arms or at least the back half.
