Default Del Sol subframe in EG?

Basically, the LCA mount bolt snapped the welded nut inside the subframe. Was wondering if a 92-95 subframe out of a Del Sol would work in a 92 CX hatch?

Yes, '94 - '01 Integra will work as well. '96 - '00 Civic wont.

Yes, and the front.

I shouldn't say '96 - '00 Wont work, but it requires that you use a '96 - '00 Rear T-bracket, and IIRC LCAs from a '96 - '00 Civic.

One thing I did forget though, the OP said CX. Only the CX/VX subframes are the same because they use a manual rack. You can use a power steering subframe but you'll need to double up the rubber bushing under the horseshoe shaped bracket.

i dont think you need lower control arms. because people do 5 lug swaps on eg's using CTR suspension, which is EK.

You don't swap the subframe when doing a 5 lug swap, just the knuckles.
