Sorting out the suspension/brakes in a EG with H22a?
2 days ago I bought a 100% stock never touched 94 cx hatch 5-speed.
1 day ago I bought a H22 swap for it
The stock suspension and brakes are easy explained as the WORST i have ever experienced. I wanted to use the fastbrakes front and rear 11" kits to upgrade the brakes, and get some JIC coilovers for it. However at this point I am thinking that this might not be enough because it still doesnt have sway bars and maybe the control arms from integras are just heavier duty overall?
I seen how people do the ITR 5 lug and suspension and brakes conversion to civics, and thought that would be the most ideal for this car. But it seems like that might be really expensive and just limit my wheel selection.
So then I was thinking what about maybe a full GSR suspension conversion? Maybe the integra control arms are a little beefier, etc? Would come with decent F/R disk brakes?
What do you guys think? I am looking for someone to put together an idea for a full suspension and brake upgrade package for this car... a lightweight EG hatch with a turbo h22 in it, i need it to be very sound and sturdy. So all the bars and bushings and **** are probably well needed.
Thanks very much!
