Default Koni Sport/Ground Control on EF8

What would be the best option to fit Koni Sport shocks with Ground Control coilover conversion sleeves/Eibach springs on JDM VTEC CRX, EF8?

DC2R suspension conversion route?

What about the height?

Would I need DC2R shocks to get bits and pieces off to complete the package?

Because I own an EF8. Only JDM crap is made as direct fit for this rare model of CR-X.

Unless there is an EF8 Specific CR-X series of Koni Sports?

Also unless I am mistaken, the USDM EF Koni Sports don't have the external damper adjustments... otherwise I would just order those and change forks and rear LCAs and be done with it.

rear is similar.. rear LCA is different though

front LCA's a bit different, the front rods have 2 bolts and the sway bar at the front has a endlink design instead of a bolt type design

front forks are a bit different too

prob the hubs etc are different, maybe revisions all over the place


are the USDM EF CRX kits, do they come with adjustable koni's?

could always use USDM EF CRX/AUDM ED CRX forks and rear lcas

You would need 88 crx or itr rear konis, and just order the off the shelf kit for gc, unless you want higher rates. Im my b16a crx i run 450f 350r, the OTS is 350/250. IMO it was too light for the car.
