Default Rear strut braces (ef civic -> ef Crx )

Just wondering if a strut brace that fits a rear ef civic will fit on a crx as well.

I wanna get a front + rear bar from OMP.
I KNOW THE FRONT WILL FIT, BUT HOW ABOUT THE REAR ??

thanks guys

:thumbsup:

Remember the 88 CRX rear suspension was a lil different from the 89-91 CRX. If it matters at all.

that was essentially the lower control arm and the shock assembly. the uppere mount and such is the same meaning that a upper strut tie bar will in fact bolt up correctly like it would any 89-91. the underside suspension differences have no effect on the actual chassis/shell which is the same throughout the years.

Front (MA1647)



Rear. (MA1648)


Sorry that I don't have a clearer pic. It's mounted directly onto the shock, and not to the chassis.

Hi I live in Australia and i also own a crx. I just wanted to know how much you pay'd for your's U.S. as it is a really tide vehicle. I Payed 6,568 U.S. for mine with only 76,000km (47,224 miles). It has compleatly new paint that is Imaculate. Your's also looks really good i was just curious to if or what mods it has or had when you brought it and if you lowered it your self. And correct me if i'm wrong but isn't a D16A6 a sohc?

thanks.

just a heads up the front OMP bar is very close to the stock MC. and if you have an upgraded MC like a 15/16 from a civic ex or something then it wont fit.
