one thing is ep3 is the si/type r hatch back but ep2 doesnt exist....if you have a coupe its EM2 and sedan is ES1/ES2...also there is no point to putting on ep3 coilovers because there are plenty for the em/es's

i believe the ep2 is the hatch, but with our engine. i don't know if it's the 3-door or 5-door one though.

boostaddict is on a distinguished road
There is only one way to find out... Thanks to Hondas streamlining, almost all dc5/ep/em/es suspension parts are interchangeable. The areas that they are not the same are the upper front strut mount, size of the crashbolts in the front spindles, and spring rates/valving. If you are confident trying to make stuff fit, I say go for it. Between the parts currently on your car and the parts you are going to buy, you should be able to make something work. I am currently using dc5 camber plates, '02 em2 upper bearings, and em2 struts on my em2.

The EP2 does exist ragingSPAM.
I saw some pics of one a few days ago... a 2001 EP2.
It's an EP3 only... not aggressive, lol... kinda like our cars compared ro an RSX.

Its not a D17.
Its a 1.5L some places, 1.6 in others.

Stuff transfers over between the cars. It should without modification.
