I am selling a complete suspension set up out of a 02 type s and want to know what parts change over to the ep3. I want to know this so I can answer peoples questions not to post for sale stuff in here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think you need the knuckels for EP3. and for 02-05 civic i think its a direct bolt on.

search my friend search. http://www.k-series.com/tech_detail.php?Tech_ID=5_LUG_CONV thats all the info that is needed.

and no you dont need the ep3 knuckles, all the parts are interchangealbe. and you do need the axles from a type-s setup, i dont think you need the axles. and the ones that benefit from this will be 02-03 ep3 peeps.

Thanks for the help. Does the ep3 benifit from any of the suspension, swabars, struts/springs?

i dont think there is any benifit from this other then having 5lugs. u do get better brakes and maybe a heavier spring rate. but i do think the sway bars give you a little, if they are bigger.

Well from what it sounds like you are best off if you have everything from the arms and out including axles?.....

True that ^^ waiting on icb to get some type r's can't afford the progress sways. If your still sellin the tie bar let me know how much can't afford the headder right now.
