They aren't the same at all! Especially physical appearance. You should of just stuck with EH suspension and not bothered with the type R. See if you can return it, if not, have fun buying an ITR rear LCA.

NP, basically, with the EH LCA, the fork goes over the LCA and a bolt goes through both to hold it together. On an ITR, your drop the shock base into the LCA and a bolt goes through the outside of the LCA and through the shock.

Type R:


Civic: (this one is a 96-00, but it's only different in shape, the design is the same)

Type R yes, GSR no. Only type R has different shocks and LCA's, the GSR is identical to the civic (92-95), the RS LS GS.

I always wondered why honda chose the ITR control arms to be different than the GSR and LS ones.
