EG/EK/DC front suspension questions...
I'm interested in doing an EG/DC subframe conversion to my EM1 and I have a few questions...
From what I have read I need an EG/DC subframe, EG/DC rack, EG/DC lower control arms, sway bar, forks and some bolts...
I want manual steering so I plan on going with a 92-95 CX manual rack and subframe... The forks seem to be all the same so that brings me to the LCAs/sway bar...
The EG and DC seem to have different part numbers for the lower control arms... I want to run a GSR sway bar so will either LCAs work or will I need one from a DC?

It still seems like the EGs with sway bars have a different P/N then the DC...

I used an Integra "A" with the stock "I" because I was lazy to swap it out from the subframe.

Re: EG/EK/DC front suspension questions...
Thanks for the info... Now I just have to figure out if using an EG/DC B series rear mount will work so I can do the whole subframe swap before I go for the K swap... I have read people who said Hasport claims it will work but no real confirmation...

Re: EG/EK/DC front suspension questions...
Switching to an EG/DC subframe allows you to run the EKK2 mounts which have a number of benefits over the standard EKK1 mounts which utilize the EK subframe...
Some of which include better axle angle (doesn't put as much stress on them), better choice of radiators, and most importantly it moves the engine 2 inches rearward (helps going in/out of driveways and over speedbumps, better weight distribution) and 1 inch up (general ground clearance)...

an EG/DC rear mount is the same as EK

just make sure when you have the b-swap in there with the 92-95 subframe you will need to use the 94-01 integra 5spd rear engine T bracket
