This has been asked. But not really answered. Is there a suspension difference, any difference between my 2014 ILX, and a 2014 civic SI? Any difference at all as far as parts exchanging. My car is closing in on 93K and the stock suspension is toast. I don't really want coilovers. But unless I want to it a set of VW corrado koni inserts on the front. I'm kinda S.O.L. The coilover selection for our cars is.....Pitiful. There's a few more choices for the SI.
Bolt patterns, bolt sizes, end links. Etc. I'm asking because I have a limited window to install them. And I'd not like to be surprised by any part fitment. If no one has an answer. Could you steer me to place or person that could answer.

I've also noticed some manufacturers list the same part numbers (for an ILX and SI) and some have different numbers. That could just be internal control.

ILX SET UP


civic si set up


The main difference is circled in red. End links should be the same. 99% sure

Main difference, as in the camber bolts. Or the ABS sensor.

camber bolts

Thanks for the answers and all. But could you elaborate a little bit more. Are the bolts different sizes. Widths. Is the cam angle different. Are the holes different sizes. Most important, will Civic SI struts fit? Do I need to modify them?

Bolt sizes should be the same. Your issue will be mounting the strut to the knuckle due to the position of the holes on the strut. even if you manage to line them up, your camber will be all jacked up.
