Will the pro-kit springs I took off my cx fit a '93 integra?

Thanks,

I've heard yes... but the drop will not be as big as it was on the Teg.

They'll fit, but they may be the wrong rate and height. So, fitting is somewhat different than working.

I emailed a similar question to neuspeed a while back, but my question was will integra springs work on a 94 civic. They said the integra springs were almost the same in the rear, but the fronts had a stiffer rate and if you put them on the car it would not me at the right ride height.

I think for your application, the front springs may be too soft and the front of the car might sag a little more than it should.

I would give eibach (or who ever) a call to see what they say. good luck!

that sounds like a good idea. Or you could just throw'em on and find out.

Thanks for the replies. I figured the rates wouldn't be as high as one would want. They said they have a broken coil so for a temp. fix it should work. We'll just have to throw them on a find out. Thanks again for the input.

Well, for anyone wondering the springs wouldn't work with the '93 integra. The diameter of the spring is too big. The top bushing and hat assembly wouldn't fit over the spring. So, unless some fab work is done the springs won't fit. I know for next time.

Anyway, I'm now selling my pro-kit springs from my '94 civic. They were on there for about one year. Good shape.

thanks,
G

Hmmm. That's too bad. They're supposed to fit. I wonder if the aftermarket spring is a little bigger than the stock one? Sorry about misleading you, but these are supposed to be interchangeable.

I thought the same thing. Perhaps the entire assembly would work. I did compare the stock civic one and it's the same as the prokit. The lower ledge on the '93 teg's shock body could work for the civic spring but there was no way to get the upper components on the spring (top mounting part, hat).

I felt bad putting the broken spring back on. It was ugly. The top coil and bottom coil were both broken and wedged. The spring sat crooked as hell. Oh well.

I feel bad answering what I've been told, and it not working out. Using the entire assembly sounds like a fair idea, but I don't know for sure. I wish you luck.
