Unless its the same chassis, which it isn't, then no. The sway bar will bend differently in differnt places, as well as bolt differently onto most likely a different LCA as well.

You might want to look into getting a whiteline aftermarket sway that is made to fit your car directly.

As wtih all mods, you might get issues with where to mount the bugger if your car does not come with one stock. Issues like subframe tearouts, etc. But these can be avoided if all your homework is done ;)

PM egSi for availability - he supplied my whiteline. happy as.

P.s. i'm pretty sure your ES did not come with one.

in the spec sheet i have from honda says it has the front and rear but i dunno how thick they are.

ive heard from the US that they can fit RSX rear sways on the ES, but i dunno if the 2002 model sway can fit the 2005 model ES
