Will An Integra Type R Strut Tower Bar Bolt Onto A EK Civic?

I tried searching but I couldn't find a straight answer. Will a 2001 Integra Type R OEM Strut Tower Bar bolt onto a 1998 Honda Civic?

Thanks in advance!

Because it's easier and typically faster to ask if anyone has done it before and this way I would know if it would work or not before potentially wasting my time driving to meet someone if it turned out it didn't bolt on.

Yes, but you'll need to drill into your strut tower.

Oh also does anyone have a pic of this bar installed in their Civic? I'd like to see how it looks.

...google has probably millions. upon millions. go ahead type it in. GSR strut bar civic. search.

you'll need the drill to make holes for where it mounts. up and behind your shock tower. there might be two little black plastic things there.

Mounting points are the same.

There should be two indentations on your strut tower. That is where you will need to drill. Then go to any hardware store to pick up bolts/nuts.

Yeah I googled like you said and now I understand how to mount it and it looks like it'll be pretty easy actually. For some reason I was thinking that it was the type that mounted to the frame because I couldn't find a good picture of the Type R Strut Bar but after looking at the google pictures I understand it all now.

Thanks for the help man!
