You'll still use ur struts and springs

 

really?
thanks
but is that possible i can use dc5 coilovers?
since the good quality coilover only make for dc5

 

spring rates are all different.

 

FYI.. the DC5 rear LCA is just a bit different than the EP3 LCA. The DC5 LCA has a wider opening for where the rear shock sits into the LCA. So if you do use that DC5 LCA, then it <U>would</U> be better to use the rear DC5 shock assembly. If you use your EP3 LCA, then use the EP3 shock assembly.

hey Victor
do you have dc5r brembo on your ep?
i have a set of dc5r brembo too,
you must change to 5-lug to get it fits right?
what pads you are running on your brembo?
and one more thing
is that possible to use the rsx coilovers (i found a used apexi n1 damper really cheap), i heard you need to mod it fit, isn't it?
i know there are lots of questions, but thanks anyways

 

Yes, I have that setup on my EP3. You have to change it to the 5lug hub. I'm running stock pads, but have 350Z pads for the next run. You should run RSX coilovers in the rear (at least) to fit right. If not run EP3 coilovers with washers in the rear to prevent movement within the LCA.
