Installation notes
Yes — the 24mm front sway bar from a 1994–2001 Acura Integra GS-R or Type R (DC2) can be fitted to a 1992–1995 Honda Civic (EG) using the Integra's mounting brackets and hardware, on front lower control arms that have a sway bar mount. The stock 1992–1995 Civic front bar is 21mm, so the GS-R/Type R bar is a stiffer factory upgrade. A Civic-EG forum member believes it should bolt up to the EG chassis once the Integra brackets and hardware are used, and a Honda-Tech owner reports running GS-R front and rear bars on a 1994 Civic coupe with OEM parts only. An Integra LS bar (22mm) is the smaller step up.

Required modifications
Use the Integra bar together with the Integra mounting brackets and hardware; one Civic-EG poster believes it then bolts to the EG chassis. Cars that came without a front bar (such as the CX) also need front lower control arms from a car that had a front bar, so the endlinks have a mount. Use endlinks and bushings to suit the bar; one poster notes the LS and GS-R/Type R bushings differ.
Caution
Important caveats
- EG Civics that came without a factory front bar need front lower control arms from a car that had one; Civic-EG posters say you will more than likely have to change them.
- One Civic-EG poster calls the Integra bar 22mm and another calls it 24mm; the 22mm bar is the Integra LS and the 24mm bar is the GS-R and Type R.
- Forum reports say to source the brackets and hardware from the Integra rather than reusing the Civic pieces.
- Fit evidence is short forum posts, and the bolt-up claim is hedged ('should bolt right up').
- No OEM part numbers were confirmed for this entry.
