Will a civic EK9 strut bar fit an EJ8?

[atenza]

hi guys,

as title. i found a red EK9 strut for sale, just want confirmation that it will fit my EJ8 coupe ?

i assume that the struts are more or less the same, just want confirmation
thanks :wave:

If its an oem dont waste your money.

Oem ek9 brace is the same as ek4,dc2 etc. Just painted red.

invest in something that actually bolts up to your struts aswell as the chassis.. rather than just the chassis itself.

interesting- so is it correct that

1) EK9 brace doesnt bolt to the struts, rather the body (chassis)

2) $100 would be too much to pay and might as well go aftermarket?

- i have Tein SS coming in if that makes a difference...

thanks guys

Dont buy a ek9 brace.
Go get a ultra racing brace.
Solid braces ftw.

i would get a 3 point ultra racing worth the money. also bolts on with chasis firmer worth the money

[atenza]

thanks guys. i will look at the ultra range or aftermarket 3 point
