You can use either one of the two, but may have to use blox's adjustable spherical endlinks.

94-01 Integra. Sway bar holes are in the middle


88-95 Civic. Sway bar holes are towards the top


Sorry to whore your thread, but I have to know h:

94-01 integra junk = eg junk

I know there are some minor differences between the rear suspension on 4th gen vs 5th gen civics but I'm not sure if the LCA's are one of them. But I'd go integra just to be sure.

Hold up.... If I get stock ones from the dealer, they're like $71 each and with shipping etc. it comes out to less than the skunk2's. I know that the aftermarket stuff is lighter, but do I care? It's a daily driver that I thought to have fun with a little in the corners with.

I just used integra LCA's from the junkyard or local board (don't remember which :thinking: ). 5th gen EX sedan LCA's will do the trick too. If you go with OEM, definitely DO NOT buy them from the dealer. $140 is just insane, I think more like $40 for the pair would be appropriate. Just make sure the bushings aren't toast.

Yeah... the aftermarket ones aren't really necessary unless you like the bling. I doubt the weight would be noticeable from behind the wheel (less so than, say, getting lighter wheels), but I've done some pretty stupid things in the name of weight reduction, so I'm not really one to talk h: I believe they used to make shorter-than-stock aftermarket LCA's too for moving the wheel inboard to make room for dubs. h:

I've actually being doing a slow suspension bushing upgrade. I better get the stock ones with good bushings, or just go new OEM. I'd rather have the car completely stock to the eye. $140 doesn't sound too bad to know that new sway bar with bushings are connected to new OEM LCA's. All of that on GC's and AGX's.

Sound good?

dip the AGX's and at the very least get illuminas. Koni Yellows for the more better.

Shit! I got a killer deal on the AGX's. Like $180 or so. What's wrong with them?

AGX's have been labeled as simply stock replacements, although I have had them on my daily driver and they showed to be more than suitible for my application. I would also say that Illumnas are not far more superior than AGX. The only ones that I'd stay away from are GR-2's...a downgrade from stock IMO.

nothing "wrong" with them, I run them on the scooby. I just saw you were going with the GC's and the AGX's won't allow a very big drop for very long is all.
