DA, DC, EG all the same. springs are also the same but may vary for spring rates and drops since the weights of the cars are different. my best advice is to order what is for your car

Not true, the DA has the radius arm vs the 3pt lower control arm. The older 88-91 civics are on the same suspension as the 90-93 integras. I've heard you can use shocks/springs for the 94-01 on the 90-93 but I dont have any personal experience on that.

90-93

i tried to put 00 gsr shocks on my da but wouldn't fit because the lower a-arms on the da's are too small

Sounds like they don't fit

As far as I know, EG and DC are the only 2 that interchange but I'm sure something else will fit something else.

The older EF/DA suspension has the smaller diameter strut bodies. To run EG/DC struts, you need the EG/DC lower drop forks as the DA ones are too narrow. The height of the rears are also different from my experience. I run the EG kit on my DA

I know the rear control arms from a DC will fit the DA. I did forget to mention that the Front struts will no fit unless you use DC Forks. my bad for not being elaborate. - AllMotorDan
