DA=EG ( springs) ??
#3
The DA 'Springs' are definately interchangeable between EF's, EG's, EK's, and DC's. Now not just the springs are interchangeable! All rear shocks should be interchangeable too except '88 EF's. The front shocks are interchangeable as well as long as you use the proper front lower shock fork. For example if you are going to use the DA front shock on all other chassis you should use the EF or DA front lower shock fork. EG front shock, use the EG front lower shock fork. Same goes for all other chassis front shocks. The only front shock that might be a problem would be the 99-00 si (canadian siR) front shock because it uses a totally different size front shock, front lower shock for, and front lower arm. I could be wrong since I've never used the siR front shock, but this is what I hear.
You may or may not come into problems with front and rear heights being off since the lower shock perches vary by chassis (especially the rears). The biggest problem with the rear sitting lower would be with EF springs being used on all other chassis'.
I used to own a DA and I was able to use EG/EK/DC springs on the DA no prob. Now I have an EK which I originally usd my DA Tokico springs but now I use DC springs. The top and bottom of the springs all use the same spring diameter. Now it's up to you to use the proper spring rate as all chassis' weigh different.
Hope this helps!

Re: DA=EG ( springs) ?? (sleeper101)
Yes, the springs are interchangable w/ problems depending on the type of eg your putting them on. I bought a set of springs at a show, they said that they would work on my car (92si hatch)only to find out later that they went on a da. When I got home and put them on the *** end was sitting stock or higher. If your lowering the car, then I would either get the proper springs or cut a couple of coils off the da springs, if it's a hatch you have. A coupe may be ok
