Default Aftermarket EG suspension fit an EK?

Does anyone know if aftermarket EG suspension will bolt up to an EK Hatch?

Im specifically looking at K-Sport Kontrol Pro, on the website they have different part numbers but the same spring rates

yes, you will need to use washers on the rear lca mount because the eg is wider than the ek.

Ok cool, would aftermarket LCAs fix this or are they the same width as stock?

Don't take my word too serious, because I have never done that.. but eg LCA's should fix that.. but I'm not 100% positive they are the same dimensions though.

EK LCA's are longer than EG LCA's you can use EG suspension on an EK all you need are 2 thick washers for each lca...Skunk2 sends washers in there kits for use on EK's.

Another question... When removing the rear damper fork bolt on the EKs do these break easy? Do we reuse the stock bolt with the K-Sport coilovers or does it come with a new one?
