Default stock ep3 suspension into dc5?

hey guys, so i'm parting out my g/f's 02 rsx, and i have a friend who has a stock 02 EP3, and they want to trade stock suspension + cash for her tien basisc. my question is will the ep3 suspension bolt right into the rsx? i know there's some changes the ep3 has to do to make the dc5 coils fit, but i haven't found any literature going the other way.


if anyone can share information it would be great!

well if you try n fit the suspension and looks n feel the setup is good, then i dont see the point of making changes to adjust them to the dc5....after all its coming from another honda.

You need to change out the tie rod ends. The ep3's tie rod is smaller then the rsx-s ones. If it is a base rsx it should bolt right up.
