The lower control arms are a bit different. They can be interchanged, but you'll also need new shock forks cause the ones on there now won't fit. The 99-00 Si shock forks are the same as the CTR. So are the lower arms. The CTR sway bar is way thicker. Are you running a rear sway bar? Cause all you are doing is introducing more understeer into your ride.
