Default 99 civic si spring & shocks into 93 del sol si?

would a set of springs and shocks, both front and rear, came out of a 99 or 00 civic si would fit into a 93 del sol si? and would it lower or raise the car a bit?

thanks

How much are you working with? Do you want stock or aftermarket? Just the other day someone was trying to sell stock springs in this forum. I've got Intrax sport springs (2 inch drop) and I absolutely love them.

Hard to tell without pulling the shocks out and checking them out. I'm sure you could get the stock springs off that guy for well under 100 bucks. My Intrax ran me like 170 shipped or something. This was also quite some time ago, so I'm sure they are lower in price now. I'm going to find the thread on the springs and bump it for you.

Could very well be the shocks. Pull them out and take a look.

i'm pretty sure it will work.....Most Civic parts are interchangeable w/ each other...the only thing is that w/ the Si Springs your car will sit a lil higher since the spring rate is built for the weight of the Si...The shocks will also be interchangeabe....right now i'm using some Ek springs on my Eg...works fine and looks nice...

YES the springs will work, but the 00 si rear shocks will not fit.

i think its the shocks, is your lowered and if it is how long has it been lowered? just get agx kybs.

if you want cheap shocks, go to a junkyard and get one from a 94+ integra

Yes, the 99-00 Civic Si springs/shocks WILL bolt into a 93 del Sol, but you need the del Sol lower suspension fork too.....the Civic LCA is wider than the del Sol one, so you have to swap them around. Same is true for the upper A arm.

It will raise you car a little - at least it did mine, but that MAY just have been the fact that the tired old del Sol components were plain worn out.

HTH!
