i've got a 93 vx hatch and was wondering if my buddy's EK tein ss coilovers would fit my car?

 

The rear lower control arms' shock bushigns on the EK chassis are thinner than the bushings on the DC2/EG chassis.

So, to fit the EK suspension onto your EG, you'd have to grind the rear LCA shock bushigns thinner.

To fit DC2/EG suspension onto an EK, you have to use washers or spacers on the rear LCA shock bushigns.

 

that's all? the front will work just fine?? also, first grind the bushing in the the rear and then use spacers right?

Yes, the fronts will work. To get the rear to work, you would either need to grind the bushing or use an LCA from a 96-00.

Yup, either grind the bushing or buy NAR-SPEC Aluminum lca's.. thats what i did, it comes w/ the more narrrow bushing so it fits the ek suspension on an eg/dc.

 

buy NAR-SPEC lca's for an eg right?
