Yeah, they are. But I was surprised to see them post the FEA graphs of the design. BTW, they're also the exact same brand as the first Ebay link in the first thread you put there. They're just the ITR-style (eyebolt shock), which it seemed like he specifically wanted. Only place I've seen them actually post a picture of that version, most places make you switch to a fork-style rather than making two versions.

I also know for a fact that DA lower arms work too, I used some on my 88 crx a while back when I couldn't find any EF ones.

88 crx and itr LCA's are the same 89-91 are different. You can use which ever ones you want, you just have to make sure you use the right shock (the one for the same car)

SPC makes a set. No where near as bling as those.

Sold through NOPI and other fine retailers.

Guys, you misread what he said, he said for an EF8 not a ED9...he has a real deal SiR so its the same as the ITR ones and i havent seen any made...what you guys are showing will work for the ED chassis. If he wanted to use the aftermarket ones you showed him, he needs to use different rear shocks...

He has the same shock that fits the first real response show to him... the ones made by function 7. ITR and the 88 CRX also have the same type of mount for the shock as the JDM EF8 and EF9.

'88 ed9, ef7, ef8 and ef9 have the same lower arms, they are interchangeable

least they were when we changed them from a scrapped ef9 on to an ef7, and then took the ef7 ones and put them on an ef8!
