- Tue Oct 21, 2008 11:17 pm #75446 Do aftermarket LCA's like blox, skunk2 and D2 fit both JDM and USDM/EDM/UKDM rear suspension.

I ask because my EG6 is imported from Japan and seeing as i've got coilovers soon to have the JDM eyball fittings shipped to me (long story see my previous thread) I want to know whether they'll fit.

I can't see why they wouldn't. surely i would just mount them to one side inside of going over the top like the fork type fittings do...or am I being too logical?

- Tue Oct 21, 2008 11:44 pm #75448 yes they are all the same

Remember when Civics were cool ? Yea me neither

- Tue Oct 21, 2008 11:57 pm #75450 Integra Type R is the only one that is different on the EG/DC chassis.


if your shocks have a fork on the bottom (arm goes inside the shock) you have the regular DC/EG arm.

If you have a box like control arm, where the shock goes INSIDE the control arm, you have yourself an ITR control. The only aftermarket setup for this that I know of, is from Function7 and they are not cheap. ($280USD)

- Tue Oct 21, 2008 11:58 pm #75451 No they are not all the same. You said you were getting the JDM eyeball fitting for the rear shocks on the Coil overs. You will need JDM DC2 R LCAs or if you want better LCAs check out Function7. They sell a LCA that is a cup style to fit the EYEBALL fitting.

- Wed Oct 22, 2008 8:05 am #75496 cheers man!

much appreciated.

- Wed Oct 22, 2008 8:34 am #75497 yup yup

ITR LCAs are great stock LCAs. It's not as bling bling factor as the other ones but it is cheaper.. why don't you strip the rubber and polish them?

function7 makes one and its $280USD hahahahhaha


so pricey

- Wed Oct 22, 2008 1:31 pm #75511 ahh yes but the exchange rate pls shipping makes them about the same price as the other LCA's.

I'm just thinking if i'm doing all my suspension (coilovers, camber kits) i may aswell get the LCA's aswell...Especially as i've got Axis old skools on the wish list!

- Wed Oct 22, 2008 6:17 pm #75559 arent factory type r lcas cheap in the uk as they are found on stock type r


even so, the function7 lcas are 280 in the USA, that means you gotta add shipping on top of that

- Wed Oct 22, 2008 7:40 pm #75575 yeah i appreciate the shipping needs to get added on but it still works out cheaper.
