I think EFs for the most part are the same. if you're doing a swap i'd go aftermarket tho. header clearance is tight for oem crossmembers.

Crossmembers are the same.

Sedans with power steering have different rear crossmembers. the racks are not interchangeable but you can just swap the whole crossmember.

Yes! I even used a hatch rear crossmember in my CRX.

Good info. I need an X member, control arms and radius rods for both sides - right now I'm running with ground R rods to get proper wheel base. And they were ground a good inch or so. I don't see any bending in the body fortunately so it much bee the wimpy *** suspension.
