hey Honda tech. what is consider a complete jdm front? besides the

jdm bumper/head lights/ Corner Lights/fender w/sidemarkers and the hood plus the T Bar, is there any other part? like a T bracket or something? not sure if its consider the same as the tbar.? any info will help, thanks.

 

the complete nose cut and firewall with the parts you listed is considered a complete jdm front end...!!!

 

is the T Bracket Mandatory to install the frontend?

 

Yes. the hood won't close properly (or at all) without it.
I've seen people modify the usdm t-bar to make the jdm hood close but it's just easier to get the jdm t-bar with the front end.

 

T BAR and T Bracket? what is the difference?

I Have the T Bar. but peeps are telling me that i need the T bracket?

 

Are you talking about the JDM EF8 SiR front bumper support? The one pictured below? I too am curious if, this part is needed for installing the JDM front bumper to the US spec CRX.

 

this is t bar



and the t bracket are the little supports on top of the radiator to hold it in place

 

ok i think efjonny knows what im talking about... so what if i dont have the bracketts? but i have a tbar? i've heard that the usdm will not work? how can i custom it or what do i need to do to make it work/fit? thankx!

 

You're set if you got the t-bar. The usdm radiator supports on each side should work on the jdm front. I have a 91 ef hatch with the jdm front, I'm pretty sure they're pretty much the same as the crx far the the t-bar and hood latch goes...

 

tbar = tbracket

 

If you use the US t-bar. You will need to use washers on the t-bar. In order to make the JDM hood fit properly.

 

there is a sticky on jdmuniverse.com on all this info w pics good luck

 

thanks for all the reply. well the front was install last nite. the only problem now is that it seems like the hood is not hooking onto the latch. any advice? ill take some pix of it later.

 

is everything lined up correctly? the hood and the latch on the t-bar?

 

It looks like it lined up right? The hood go down on the latch but when I close it I can lift the hood up from the front and it seems like it kinda pop up but its still in there.

Also in order for me to open the hood from the inside (driver side) some one have to lift the hood from the front while im pulling the hood release.? Anyone have/had this problem?

 

Last time i checked. The t Bar was the front of the car. The T bracket is a bracket that holds the engine to the Rear Motor mount. T bracket Rear engine.

Read like 10x that the t bracket was something else. According to..

 

Or also called the L bracket. But, Then they would be talking about the engine not the REAR ENGINE BRACKET. or L bracket.

 

pics or it didn't happen!! jk...is the catch working on the T-bar? you may just need to unscrew the pin on the hood side

 

dont mean to steal the thread but i just wanted to know if this braket will work on a us bumper? thanx sorry for the off topic
