Dc2/Eg and most EK strut tower bar are interchangeable.
EG hatch and sedan suspension are basicly the same thing.

sedan is a good platform man, suusy parts r easy as to get.

id go a sedan, a lil differet but still damn cool in my book! :thumbsup:

if the sedan wheel base is slightly longer it will be easyer to catch if it does start to go into a spin. weight is the biggest problem with a sedan.

i didnt think there was THAT much a weight diff in sedan vs hatch, nothing a gutted interior wont fix anyways ;)

Sedan for sure. I wanted one, but couldn't find one in as good condition as my hatch. Go the sedan. They look awesome.

For a start the weight difference is slight - EG sedan is apparently about 40-50kg's heavier due to alittle more weight in two etra doors , and alittle extra wheelbase.
All suspension is interchangeable between both including springs , shocks , swaybars and also wheels , engine etc.
Only aesthetic parts such as the bonnet , fenders , doors , bumpers etc are not directly swappable.
If you find parts for " EG" it will fit on the hatch in preference - and very likely to fit on the sedan as well.

My boyfriend is totally into cars, and the intrest is catchy..... I've just bought my first car 1992 Civic GL sedan (totally stock), been learning bit by bit for nearly 2yrs now ...so pardon my ignorance... just wondering what touge is?

[all_motor_baby]

Touge is japanese for mountain i think lol, so the setup SHINGO is trying to go for is a mountain racing style setup please correct me if im wrong :D

[SHINGO]

thanks guys for your help..... naa the only reason why i want to tune it this way is because my current car is a show car and im over buying parts that i dont realy need, so for my next car i want to tune it for handling :)

[type one]

ok so maybe not for "touge" but for track work... because if you are serious about a "touge" style car it won't be road legal.

But then again i watch too much BMI lol... maybe you just talking about suspension and bars hehehe.

[SHINGO]

i just looked at this and decided thats what i want to do..... http://www.belperformance.com.au/tuning-touge.php

Touge= mountain ey? cool. sort of like a Hill Climb? I've seen a 'classic car hill climb' and some movies of japanese drifters doing crazy things on mountains.... is that the same thing? :confused:

I wouldn't mind making my civic (92' Gl 1.5L) quicker off the blocks without leaving a huge dent in my purse. I've been told a new exhaust and a pod filter is the way to go. what do others think? is there something else i should be keeping in mind? :confused:
