EG6 4pt autopower rollbar? Would it fit a DC2?
I found a couple of EG6 autopower roll bars for sale and rarely any DC2 ones out there. Does anyone happen to know if a roll bar from an EG6 would fit? Supposedly most of the suspension componants are similiar but im not sure about the roll bar. Someone please inspire me.

Sack posted that an autopower cage can be swapped between a DC2 and EG chassis, but i dont know which variant.

I have a Kirk 4 pt bar that will be coming out of the car in favor for a Kirk roll cage. If you are interested I can supply pics, etc. This will be coming out of my 95 GSR. (DC2)

Re: EG6 4pt autopower rollbar? Would it fit a DC2? (Lost Type R)
It's been answered, but the Civic hatch rollbar is different than the integra bar.
Specifically, the base plates of the rear supports are further apart on the integra bar than on the civic. I haven't tried what you're suggesting, but we did test-fit an integra bar in a civic and it did not fit. If you were getting a REALLY good deal, you could have the rear supports modified (i.e. removed and re-welded), but that's the only way it would work.

Thank you.
Like I said yesterday. it doesn't fit, and it isn't worth it since rollbars aren't expensive anyways.

Re: EG6 4pt autopower rollbar? Would it fit a DC2? (sackdz)
Cmon....you're the guy with all the wheels for sale right? You got money. Just sell one set of those wheels and you could afford four roll bars.
The bar is only 350 or so shipped. And it is an easy install with power tools. Took me and Chris about 5 hours total. That is with test fitment and then install. While doing valve adjustment and other stuff to my seat brackets.
I really don't think that a guy with money like you should be skimping on safety equipment. If there is one thing that I wouldn't want to buy and mess around with it would be the roll bar.
Lets say that you do somehow get it to work. You would have to cut and reweld a bar to extend back to the wheelwell to get it to fit. And at that point the cost would bring you to about the price of a new bar.
Be safe man!

Sorry I guess I had you confused with the guy selling 16" mf-10's, 16" spoons, 17" SE37K's. 
Good luck with whatever you choose.
Between the Kirk and the Autopower I'm really not sure what I would choose. The Kirk extends to the trunk, while the Autopower bolts to the wheel wells. Some people on this board say it's bad to have any bar further back then the rear shock towers, but not really sure how much it matters.
I ended up getting the Autopower because I currently have some stuff located where the rear of the kirk bar bolts in. But I think both would be a good choice.
Don't get any bars up front, unless you plan on having the car track only. Some people do drive with the 6 points on the street, but I believe it to be unsafe. Head hitting the a pillar bar would hurt real bad with no helmet.
