Rear Sway bar on a hybrid EG/DC2R (Pics Inside)
Well to cut a long story short,
I purchased an EG5 2 months ago that need's a little work but in very good mechanical shape.
It has a full ITR conversion from a 98 JDM donor, with the motor,gearbox,brakes,hubs,dash,aircon,abs,lca,whee ls,suspension,seats and so on all swapped in favour of the type-r gear.
Basicly the only thing that is an EG is the body .

So in my first few days of looking over the car I found one of the rear sway bar D-Brackets was snapped, so I removed the bar as there was a bit of noise coming from the rear to inspect it further.
The swaybar looks to be like a Whiteline unit and from my reaserch it is a 2 way adjustable 20mm,
it looks fairly old but still in good shape,
One problem I have had is getting another D-Bracket, as Whiteline dont do them and a few wreckers dont have any and Honda say I should go to Whiteline :confused:

The issue I have is the body is an EG but the LCA are DC2R along with the ABS Lines, see bellow:

So im not sure which way to go, I have found this kit KBR28-20 from whiteline and it has the upgraded heavy duty brackets and lower brace for $220 but will it fit with my ABS lines as it says it not for the DC2R
Then I was thinking I could just get a 24mm whiteline kit to suit the DC2R but have read some where the DC2R had upgraded lower sub frame compared to the EG? so I might be asking for trouble as the DC2R kit mounts directly to the sub frame? or am I wrong?
If anyone has had the same issues please feel free to coment.
Thanks for taking the time our to read my thread.
