suspension the same?

got a big question

EP3 are only out since 2002 - 2005 ?
2002-2003 are 4x100
and 2004-2005 are 5x114.3

are their suspension (springs & struts) the same for all years ?

are their suspension will fit RSX all years ?
or only certain years ?

will 7th gen civic (2001-2005) 2dr coupe fit the same as well ?

please help, thanks

Its a whole mix and match mess.....the 02-03 ep3 are more or less all the same....some of the early 02's have 50mm ft struts and 14mm bolts that attach the struts to the knuckels from the em2's....some of the early dc5's have these also .
For the differances in sways, look here....

There are some big changes in the 04-05 ep3's...they got the knuckels and bushings from the 02-04 dc5 base, they also got different dampers and springs( a little better but still crap). All of the ep3's have tierods from the em2( kinda dumb as the em2 is 200lbs lighter)...all of the dc5's have the same tie rod ends( bigger) through all years. The base dc5's stayed the same with the exception of some damping changes in the 05 face lift. The type s got a whole bunch of changes in 05, bigger lower balljoint from the type-r, different bars, The spring are wound backward so they can not be used with the earler dc5's design dampers ........ another thing to remember about drive shafts.....If you are swapping a type-s suspension onto a ep3, you need the drive shafts and ft abs sensors....they are different......

all of the em 2 stuff is made for a 200lb lighter car, so stay away from that.....unless you are looking for a maller ft sway, then the 03-05 em2 is the shit.
