Default ITR SUSPENSION SWAP TO A DA CHASIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WELL I KNOW THAT THE LOWER CONTROL ARM, AND REA SWAY BAR BOLTS ON TO DA CHASIS. MY QUSTION IS WHAT ELSE CAN I SWAP, CONTROL ARMS, FORKS, ECT...
REASON BEING I WAN TO INSTALL THE HYPER FLEX SUSPENSION FROM A DC ON TO THE DA. BEING THAT TEIN ONLY MAKES BASIC AND SS FOR OUR CARS, AND PLUS ITR SUSPENSION HAS BETTER COMPONETS THAN A MY 92 GSR...
PRETTY MUCH A I WANT GOOD HANDLING, THATS WHY IM INTRESTED IN DOING THIS PROJECT.
ANY POSITIVE FEEDBACK????????????????

why are you YELLING??? secondly, i don't think dc2r suspension components will work unless you do lots of custom work. lastly, you can have great handling without having a hype R suspension.

whats the big deal with Tien Flex's? get some sticky tires, koni yellows, GC coil-overs, have the car corner balanced by someone reputable and you'll have a great handling teg.

Check out G2IC.com All those DA guys swear by the koni yellows and GC setup. If you really got your mind set on running the type-r rear LCA you can also run a JDM DA rear LCA which is the same as the type-r.

Thats right about g2ic man I go by the same screen name over there. I have konis and neuspeed race springs, rolling on some azenis and the car handles beautifully. However if you really want DCR components all you will need are a pair a DC front drop forks, because the inside diameter for the shock is larger, And you will need a pair of ITR rear lower control arms. Then the entire flex system should bolt right in.

I know because I had this type of hybrid suspension in my DA, but have since switched back to stock DA components.

Hope the info helps.

I switched back because I got a decent deal on koni yellows for my DA, had to use the original parts to install em so theres the reason. There are other pluses about using the DC components, the rears shocks are shorter and will give you more travel.
