You need to swap the subframe to the DC2 Integra / EG Civic one if you want to use those lower control arms and therefore the sway bar.
EK subframe shown on the left; EG subframe on the right.

From what i've read/heard the 94-01 Integra front sway bars hang too low when bolted up to any civic. There's been problems with the front sway bar hitting bump stops and the usual curbs etc...As for making it fit, you dont need the whole subframe ^ like he stated. I can't recall what parts you needed but i'm sure a set of Front integra/EM1 LCA's and other small integra/EM1 parts should do the job.

If he wants to use the GSR front sway bar without changing the subframe, then he has to use EX/HX front lower control arms.
EM1 and EK9 Civics use a completely different type of lower control arm and sway bar. If he wants to use EM1/EK9 hardware then he would need the EM1/EK9 front lower control arms, shock forks, and endlinks.

Re: GS-R sway bar on to an EK?
well just to let clear up any information people are just saying, you can use integra front lca's on a ek front subframe i am 100% sure the only thing you have to do is use only the rear half of the lca and your bushings from your ek and they go right on and there is a big clearance issue running integra bars on eks, but it will work
