They're shorter (brembo knuckles), the sway bar is for a K subframe swaybar, but mostly, they cut 30mm off the front track width of the car and play hell with the alignment settings.

Rep Power: 318 The Hondawerx swap car has the JDM DC5 TypeR suspension (control arms and all). The track was actually wider than stock and it just didn't look right (I've seen it in person during the build and after). The rear tires actually got cut down from rubbing on the edge of the wheel well so much.
IMO, You're better off sticking with the stock EM2 LCAs.

Rep Power: 424 A lot is built into the knuckle because of the brakes. The control arm if I remember correctly is shorter.
Its sufficient to say though, just leave them be unless you're doing the entire suspension with the knuckles and all. Stick to the EM2 ones.
