for the eg civics, you need the lower control arms off a DC2 integra, or the lwoer arms from a 4-door civic ex sedan or civic del sol vtec. These arms are tapped for teh endlink bolts.

civic ex sedan EG:
52350-SH3-G21 ARM, R. RR. (LOWER) (A.L.B.)
52360-SH3-G21 ARM, L. RR. (LOWER) (A.L.B.)

get the arms, then i'd suggest getting a whole subframe reinforcement kit and ITR bar comobo from A-Spec Racing or similar from Comptech, ~$399.

only the sedan civic ex abs came with rear sway. The civic coupe ex abs did not, hence why i only said the sedan ex [abs] in my original post. I have a civic coupe ex abs, 94, and it doesn't have a sway bar in the rear. The part numbers for the rear lower control arms differs from non-abs cars (CX, VX, DX), abs cars w/o (ex coupe) sway, and cars with sway (ex sedan abs, del sol vtec).

All 89-95 civic/crx and 90-00 integra rear lca's are interchangable, any dimentional differences can easily be adjusted out. You'll find rear sways on most tegs and si's. I have 90 teg rear arms on my 90 civic, and works perfect with a 22mm ST bar. As far as I could measure, my 94 hatch had arms no more than 1/8" different (if any, I had to somewhat eyeball it).

You'll also need enlinks that will work with that. The integra links have a better design, as the civics usually use an odd part with 90 degree fittings, not very strong.

then you pulled it off a sedan, and not a coupe like i stated earlier...
The EG coupe ex abs does not have a rear sway bar.
The EG sedan ex abs does.
As far as EG civics go, only the sedan ex abs came with a rear sway bar, 13mm stock.
The only other EG (if you consider the Del Sol to be an EG) to come with a rear sway bar was the Del Sol Vtec, which came with a 15mm rear bar stock.

do you have to get a brace for it? reinforcement??
also can i just get lca from a 94+ integra? and everything would match up good?

for 19mm+ subframe reinforcement is req.

In addition to LCA, you need end-links, the rear swaybar, d brackets, bushings. ASR offers a package that includes brace, bar and everything req to mount it, then you'd have to get some LCA that have the rear sway bar hole drilled.

Beaks kit is min, ASR or Comptech is best. I have ASR and decided to go with that after reading many, many reviews and I can say i've been very impressed with ASR's customer service.
