Default EF8 front lower control arms and sway bar swap

Hello folks I imported my EF8 SiR from Japan a year ago. I want to swap out the lower control arms and sway bar to something more readily available in the US. I went to replace it with standard USDM CRX parts but the control arms do not match up with the radius rod bolt spacing. Its literally millimeters off. Does anybody have a solution without taking the radius arms off or know if something out from a different model will fit. Thank you

EF SiR is pretty unique in front end components. i dont think theres a USDM equivalent. perhaps an accord/prelude might.. but i highly doubt it.

best bet is to buy junkyard JDM parts.

I had this issue when I ordered an ESP traction bar. The center to center holes on the JDM SiR is 2" and the USDM is 1 7/8". If you need a set of front sway bar end links I have a set that is still in great condition. I also have a set of barely used outer tie rod ends for the JDM PS rack

The 1990-1993 Integra components are the same as the JDM CRX SiR
