As many of you have possibly seen I am parting out my RSX-S I recently crashed.

HOWEVER, I may end up doing a K-swap into EG chassis.

I would like to know if I can convert EG manual rack to the RSX-S power steering, and what I would need to swap/do to get this to work? If not the RSX-S power steering parts, then what other parts would work?

And the more important question, would it be possible to convert to the RSX-S 5-lug disk brake swap? What parts would I need to replace? Proportioning valve? Also, since I will be running a K-Pro'd ecu, would it be possible to retain the RSX-S ABS?

 

You won't be able to use the steering rack from the RSX or the brakes.

 

I kinda had a hunch that the steering rack wouldnt work because of the suspension differences?

But why wouldnt the brakes work? Especially since I am running a k20, wouldnt the k20 axles plug into the RSX brakes and voila?

 

The RSX knuckles were designed for MacPherson strut while the Civic knuckles for double wishbone. Totally different design.

 

damn. any way to modify or fab around it? i havnt physically seen either, so i dunno..

if you have enough money anything is possible

 

Well.. wouldnt the differences come down to how the shocks and tie rods mount to the hubs? So in theory I would have to use RSX shocks and tie rods too... but they prolly wont fit either lol
