Default ITR suspension on an EM1

Hello everyone, this is my first ever question i've had to ask on this board but I figured you all could help me out rather quickly.

I've found an Apexi N1 damper system for an Integra Type-R that is available to me on a trade, but i'm not sure if it will work on an EM1.

The system is Currently on an EJ using ITR lower control arms and I'm trying to find out what I would need to make this set-up fit on your typical EM1 or if it will at all.

Thanks in advance for your help,
Derek

using what as a reference? I already know DC2 LCA's wont fit but that doesn't tell me what I need to convert everything to.

only the last number on the part number is different but I would say it would fit.

well these dampers are intended for use on an Integra Type-R.Currently they are being used on an EJ Civic by using ITR lower control arms.

What I need to figure out is if the same set-up being used on an EJ could be used on my EM1, and if not what it takes to make it work.

itr rear lca's are not compatible with ek lca's so it will not work. i have heard that function 7 makes a rear lca for an ek so that you can use type r suspension however.
