If I remember correctly, only the fronts work. The rears of Integras have "Fork" mounts that bolt on either side of the control arm, while the Civics don't have that.

I'm 95% sure. I worked on many suspensions, but mostly Integras, so there's a 5% chance I'm wrong here.

The '94-'01 Teg assembly is the same. I just checked on Tein coilovers, since that is what I am getting soon , and the part number for the DC2 and the EM1 are the same.

Yep, the Type R ones will need to be shimmed because the fork on the rears is wider than the LCA...the other trim levels fit...to the best of my memory

At least one of you knows what they're talking about.

The rest of you people need to learn to keep your mouths shut when you don't know WTF you're talking about.

To confirm, The rear lower control arm is narrower on the EK at the shock mount bushing. An integra shock will bolt on, but the fork will be too wide.

I thought the the bottom of the ITR rear shocks sit inside the LCA while all other integra rear shocks are forks.

BTW the integra shocks do fit that what I have on mine. You just need spacers on either side of the rear civic LCA's.
