i thought that 02-03 ep3 suspension will fit on a 03 04 05 7thgen. isnt it becasue of the tie rod end being bigger on the 03 and ups? all i did was use 01-02 coilovers and switch to a 01-02 tie rod end

YES it is a DIRECT fit. i'm riding on the rsd's... make sure it's for ep3 though and not DC5..... DC5 has a larger tie rod where as the ep3 has the same size as ours. if you DO want to you the DC5 version, you'll nee to change out the tie rod ENDs. hope it helps :]

thew 01-02s have 14mm crash bolts while the 03-05 have 16mm crash bolts... 02-05 ep have 16mm crash bolts so all ep suspension will work...if u wanna use dc5 suspension all u needa do is change the tie rod ends for the 03-05 em2s and for the 01-02 u need new knuckles tie rod ends

you got it, the EP3 suspension will fit right in there.
Buddy club is good. But I'm going to go for Tanabe. They've got the edge on the market with a one of a kind valving control. Although expensive....better then the other stuff that companies offer for the civic. I'm thankful that Honda designed the suspension to be compatable so we can put the good stuff in our cars. I wonder why companies don't just sell those same part knowing that it'll fit the 7th gen?
