Front EK lca/sway SI question with control fork?
This seems like a really really stupid question. I'm just retarded today. Cann't think straight. The car I'm working with/on is a 99 Civic DX Hatchback.
I've been ordering parts, and have been looking for parts. However I know that to add the front sway bar from an Si that the following parts are needed.(along with the necessary brackets/bushings/bolts/etc.)
I am ready to purchase the following99-00 Civic Si parts)
Front sway bar
front lower control arms
damper forks
My question is, I already purchased, and have a set of Tein Flex coilovers waiting to be installed. Now I haven't seen it yet, because I haven't gone to pick it up and i'm not thinking straight today.... ughh. In any case, i'm pretty sure i DO NOT need to order those damper forks. Am I correct? Since I got the coilovers, i don't still need the dampening forks? eh, confused...
So am I correct that all i need is:
front sway bar
front lower control arms
I do not need the damper fork right? Thanks guys, Im just not on today. Or Do i need these damper forks? ughh.. i'm confused, I think I need them? egh...mebe ill just order them anyway....

Yes, you need them. However you could also use EX LCAs, ITR endlinks and keep the DX shock forks if on a budget. However the SI front end links are a better setup IMO. However if using SI lower arms, you have to use the si forks as well.

not if you want to use an si front sway. si front sway must have si lca & si forks, unless you buy mr choi's endlinks.

Bump...just the thread I needed. I'm going to be installing the Si front sway bar.
Sorry to hijack your thread, but do you guys know where to mount the sway bar too? Do I need any extra hardware? Are the holes already supplied?

holes should all be there in the subframe. subframes aren't different between the civics.
need brackets and bushings.
