Are there any differences between the stock USDM and JDM suspension. Are the rear lca different?

 

the only difference that i know of is that the rear sway bar on the jdm is 23mm which is 1mm bigger than the usdm.

uh...he's probably not talking about type R because this isnt the itr forum. so that means you're wrong cuz my rear sway bar (if it were on) is not 22mm

 

I am talking about the GSR. It is always a good idea to replace the puny GSR sway bar with the USDM 22mm one.

I am thinking about getting some shocks from a JDM DC2 (was offered a good deal) but I need to know if there are any differences in suspensions.

 

probably the price ur paying for those u could actually get some good shocks imo

Well, I can get the JDM coilovers. Or I can get Koni Yellow's with GC custom rates price. Both are very nice setups. The JDM's have more adjustability straight out of the box and can handle higher spring rates (higher than I would go on the street). The Koni's are easier to have rebuilt and in the future I can have the converted to double sdjustable or have the stroke shortened.

I have been around long enough to know what is available to me and who makes good parts. I just am not 100% sure about the differences between JDM and USDM for all of the parts.

Of course someone elses opinion of good shocks and mine can be different. For example some people think that Tockico makes good shocks.

 

I have a 94 JDM integra Si, the rear LCAs are the same as ITR LCAs so your going to have to change these if you want to run JDM suspension. The rear sway bar is the same as USDM GSRs (yeah the pathetic little 14mm skinny one!)

 

I would also like to know this my friend just bought a 2k jdm integra suspension and the GS-r axles don't fit. Any light on this would be much helpful.


P.S sorry to bring this back from the dead but at least i searched

 

Any light on this
