Default EF suspension on EG

has anyone tried the EF struts on a EG i kno the rear are the same but how different is the front? i just bought a EG HB to try and keep miles off of my Lexus and i have a ton of parts left over from my old EF project car..i know alot times the only difference is the actuall length of the strut....just like how there is no AGX for the DA integra rear but the EF ones fit fine....just sit a little low...anyone have experence with this???

The fronts are about the right length and you need the fork that goes on the bottom.


And the rears are longer so if they aren't adjustable forget about it.

Here is a pic of eg6 ohlins next to ef8 ohlins you can kinda compare the length. I had both of these setup on my hatch at one time.

What would be the point of this? Is EF suspension better than EG? I figured that the technology would improve with the model years.
