are you 110% sure on this? about to buy a DC5R 25mm rear sway and just want to be sure rather than getting it then being stuck with it.

Yes I am very very sure, because I personally helped a mate put on a Cusco Rear sway bar from a DC5R onto his EP3R.

If you need more proof.

Part number for DC5/RSX and EP3 sway bar kit is the same

You can also use JDM/AUDM DC5R rear sway bar, but only AUDM Front sway bar.

Front and rear brake pads are the same as AUDM DC5R.

Coilovers are interchangeable between EP3 and DC5 - thats handy! What metal bushing are you referring too? Pic?

Thanks

Hey guys,

If u are needing to replace ur airconditioning condenser for whateva reason, you can use the eu civic one with some minor modification. At the smash repairs they replaced mine and they said it was basically the same just needed to put brackets at the top of the air cond to hold it in place. Not the best information but might get u out of trouble down the track if ever ur air cond starts playing up for whateva reason lol

sorry guys, i've been reading and been trying to work out what EU means?

EU is the gen7 civic hatch we had from Honda Australia.

EP3 / Si coil overs will bolt directly into the EU with minor mods to where it bolts to the hub. The EP3 use a slightly larger bolt than the EU. There is nothing else to be changed as that is exactly what I'm running in my EU.
