Hi Chaps and Chapesses!

I have got a standard EP3 civic, not a typre R or a type S or anything but I love it all the same. It's actually a really really clean car underneath and it brilliant condition.

But it wallows a bit (lots)!

I have improved it considerably with carefully selected tyres but I cant help but feel that they would be able to do a better job if they weren't trying to hold up a big massive jelly.

So I decided today after doing well at a half marathon that I'm going to get treat myself and get a strut brace and in the new year I will lower it a bit (25-30mm)

Do any of you know if a type R brace will fit a standard civic? all the ones that I have found say type R. I had a look under the bonnet and the brake fluid reservoir seems to be in an awkward place but research shows that its the same on a type R and everything else looks the same too. Do you think it would be alright?

Just thought I'd ask before I take the plunge! Cheers!

P.S. I know I'd be better off just buying a type R haha.
