I have an 04 EX sedan 2.4l 5speed manual and I was looking for a way to lessen the body roll in "spirited" cornering.
It turns out that the strut tower brace from an 03-04 V-6 coupe 6 speed bolts right in. It wasn't that difficult to do and I'm pleased with the results. Adjusting the tire pressure of the stock Michelins to 34 front and 32 rear also helped reduce noise and sidewall "rollunder".
Is it now a slot car? NO, but it handles considerably better in cornering and high speed lane changes, like avoiding that big chunk of truck tire in your lane that appeared out of nowhere.
The part will need to come from a Honda dealer so shop around. My shopping resulted in a price range from $80 to $140.
