Exclamation Integra sway bar on an EK hatch?

I've heard that a integra sway bar would fit on an EK hatch. Is this true? If so, any modification i would have to do to it? Like buy adjustable hangers or something? let me know, thanks. rep will be given.

^ that would be a strut tower brace, he is refering to the sway bar itself. im not sure on the EK chassis as ive never had one, but i do know with the stock brackets and hardware it fits on the EG chassis. but like i said i havent had an EK so im not sure.

yeah it will work, you'll have to use the stock Ek rear lower control arm, as for the bushing you'll have to get some bushings to make it sturdy! Ek & dc rear arms are different in thickness especially where it attached to the sub frame. reason why you have to use the Ek rear control arm is because of the thickness of where the shocks bolts up to it! and thats it pretty easy. I've done this to my budds EK coupe..

I'd get a rear subframe brace kit just to be sure you don't tear your subframe! What size swaybar were you looking to put on the car? I know beaks sells a kit or you can buy an ASR kit.

Default General fitting rules of sway bars

A lot of things interchange that most people don't know about.

Some general fitting rules with sway bars is.....
The end holes of both bars must be the same distance when measured side to side.

The front to rear distance between the end holes and pivot points must
be the same on both cars....or make a bracket that will make it so.

Nothing should touch/rub against either bar.-Bob
