just to let you know the subframe doesnt have pre-welded nuts behind. they are just holes (i also had a green ej8 and tried to put a ek4 RSB). so go into bunnings and get some nuts and possibly some new bolts which are high tensile. strong!!!
tight as u can dude, drive for about 1- hours and re tighten
easy as!
and re tension if after ~500kms driving
Yea, just found this out at the dealer, he's like you need the subframe of a VTi-R (330 weld on bit, lol) so ASR brace is what Im looking at now lolQuote:

probably a good idea to grab some flanged ones too
been expirementing with a few things on Sat, but I'm after something to distributed the load better on the subframe, so far my most practical option is the ASR brace so thats on the cards next month, now to find someone with one...
update
I ended up getting OEM Honda EM1 mounting brackets (they are present on all EM1/EK4s stock on the subframe whereas EJ8s have two black holes) for the EJ8, all I need to do is fit them up and make up a inside bracket, everything looks a go, pics will be up soon

wouldve been great with the right exhaust system, since I got it done yrs ago without the sway bar on there they didn't take that into account and as such I had to take it off as the top of the endlink thread was scrapping the exhaust line....
please give reviews on after. i'm curioius to know if it will make much difference at all.
