Default SOHC Owners, NRG Engine Dampner fits!!

Ok I can't believe I didn't realize this before, After sitting on the kit for almost 2 months and having Roth from NRG trying to find ways to fit it since it's actually made for a DOHC accord, I got it to fit. I will try to take pics tomorrow but for now I will just tell you how I finally got it to fit.

One end is bolted to the control Arm bolt, the other is to the top bolt of the power steering. You will need to go to autozone and get a longer 10mm bolt, I think it's called M6-1 or something, worse case scenerio is just bring a 10mm socket and unbolt it at autozone and find the same one that they offer but just longer.

I can't say for sure if this is actually an improvement but I notice that you def. feel the engine vibrations a lil more since it's purpose is to prevent the engine from torque too much under load. I will be keeping an eye on the kit tomorrow and next weekend to make sure that the kit is still well in place. Just figured I'd let you all know that the kit is fitable. BTW, I installed it on my gf's 96 Ex.

IN the JDM Accords they came with the DOHC F22 but in the US spec accords never came with them. The reason i was asking was he never said anything about it working only for the JDM motor.

What? I think there is some confusion here. The kit released by NRG is originally designed for USDM accords with H22/23 swaps. Problem is that their distributors always advertised it as just an accord kit so may ppl bought the kit with the intention to fit it to their SOHC F22's and found that it did not work.
