Question rsx spindle/hubs in civic dx

I am about to install a k20a2 engine in my civic DX, but and the same time i want to upgrade the suspension. i am going to buy rsx spindle/hub for all four wheels. i know i need to get the calipers too, but can i resuse my civic control arms and struts? or do i need to get rsx ones too?

Ok struts yes you can use them. Well actually wut year is ur car cuz if its an 01 or 02 you will need to drill out ur struts to 16mm which is no biggie. Control arms im pretty sure they will fit. Rsx and civic have very similar suspension systems. Goodluck with the swap.

When you get the engine, you will need the control arms, subframe, axles and brake hubs/calipers. You also will need to the K20 master cylinder. The rears are the same as doing drum to disk conversion (see boilermaker's DIY).

You dont need the front or the rear lower control arms....you can use your stock arms and stock struts and you also dont need the master cylinder
