Did you mean for an EM or an EP? I know, as George said, that it bolts up to an EP. I don't know if it does for an EM.

Yes, it will bolt on the coupe/sedans providing they already have rear anti sway bars. This includes 2001 and 2003 EXs and all 2002 Civics.

Otherwise you have to buy the endlinks (such as progress).

EDIT: You might want a rear lower tie bar for that 22mm bar, just for subframe insurance. Any generic tie bar will do, they're all the same.

si stock sway bar=15mm
rsx sway bar=19mm
you might want to upgrade bushings though. alot of people were very satisfied with new bushings

Fr-23mm, R-19mm

Its fine as a temp setup until I can save some cash.

The 19mm bar fits right into the Coupes and Sedans, with no modifications provided there is one in there already. All you need is the bar and the bushings (or energy suspension urethane ones).
I have one in my 02 EX and it makes a big difference over the stock pencil bar (it's like 12 mm or something). Just be aware that it won't clear all exhausts (Greddy Evo for sure, there are others that the piping hits the bar)

What size is the front bar for the EP3? I understand the RSX, Integra Type R, and some Civics have stock front 23mm bars but I wasn't sure about the EP3.
