3rd Gen (strut bar ?)options
WorldHazard
New Wagonist
So reading this
The wheelbase being 245cm from the civic sedan and the wagon; could a front strut tower bar be compatible between the two? Could this also include the 1st gen 3dr Integra as it is 245cm also? As the 4th gen comes along the wheelbase widens to 250cm. This throws those options out the window
I don't have physical measurments.. This is only a guess.. seems like it could work.
Anybody know of brake swaps..? I just keep seeing stuff for 4th gen and teg's being interchangable. Not counting in custom adapter plates and mounts. If I were to look that route anything would be possible.
edit: I may very well just end up @ the JY and take measurements/test fitting for a day

The third generation Civic, introduced in September, 1983 consisted of 4 body styles, with only the 3-door Hatchback and the 4-door Sedan having interchangeable panels. The 3-door Hatchback now rode on a 238 cm wheelbase; the 4-door Sedan, also called Honda Ballade, and built in England as Rover 213/216 (June, 1984) rode on a 245 cm wheelbase. The Wagon was now called Shuttle and used the same 245 cm wheelbase. The Civic CR-X, called Ballade Sports in Japan was a 3-door Coupe, riding on a 220 cm wheelbase and was already introduced in June, 1983. All cars had a new front and rear suspension, torsion bars instead of coils in front, and a torsion beam axle with coil springs at the rear. By November, 1984 a 4-wheel-drive version arrived for the Shuttle with a live rear axle, by September, 1986 the system became permanent. A derivative was the Quint Integra, which arrived as a 3-door Hatchback on a 245 cm wheelbase in February, 1985. In November, 1985 came the 5-door Hatchback on a 252 cm wheelbase, and in October, 1986, in Japan a 4-door Sedan on the same 252 cm wheelbase. The cars were called Honda Integra in the export, and Acura Integra in the USA and Canada.
