CIVIC EK + ASR + AUDM ITR SWAY...does it work?

[BlitZ]

I should be exact -

For the ASR kit -
EK4 and EM1's require the mounting holes to be drilled out. This is to allow the bolts to grip firmly and properly to the reinforcement behind.
I believe you CAN leave it , but it made strip the thread of the bolts as you tighten the bolts through it.
For the BEAKS kit , you need to drill an extra hole thru the bottom of the subrame for the lower bolt to go thru. (below the 2 mouning holes either side)I believe this is the case for all EK's.

Anyway a BEAKS or ASR kit + ITR or CTR swaybar is a good combo

no drilling on ek and em1 required..

u cant exactly drill the holes for the EK as from memeory the ek aSR block lower bolt is threaded

[ekhybrid]

for the ek beaks kit u need to drill into the subframe, no choice there

ok just to clear up for me cause i'm a bit slow, so if i have ek4 endlinks i can use those to put a ek9 sway no probs? is this the same for the brackets that hold it on the subframe?

[barefootbonzai]

if you get a complete ek9 sway bar with the "D" shape mounting brackets that's all you need. Cause ek9 and ek4 end links are the same. You only need to use your ek4 endlinks if you can only get a ITR sway bar.

Of course you'll need the ASR brace to mount either.

ok cool, so ek4 endlinks i can use, but not the d shape mounting brackets. i should use the ones that come with the ek9 sway.

well the ek9 sway should be larger then ur ek4 im hoping so ud have to use the D bushes from the EK9

if u buy a COMPLETE EK9 sway bar with the endlinks u can throw away ur ek4 ones

[quang]

can you use the ek4 bolts from the d mounts for the ek9 d mounts? i'm only getting the sway and d mounts, no endlinks.

[barefootbonzai]

ASR kit should have all the bolts you need.

yup

i got the asr on my car waiting for a sway bar haha


do you take off those fat metal washer type things when your putting on the sway bar?

[quang]

for the ITR sway, don't you need adaptors so you can use the ek endlinks? as recommended by ASR

[tank]

for the ITR sway, don't you need adaptors so you can use the ek endlinks? as recommended by ASR

Yes, you need adaptors. Otherwise the EK endlink won't bolt to the ITR sway bar.

bumping this thread up. what are the adaptors u need when putting EK4 endlinks on an ITR sway bar?
