shocks/coilover from DA fits the EK?
Just wanted to make sure that I can use the DA shocks/coilover on my EK. Is it possible? I thought all 88-00 Civic, Integra Shocks,Coilovers is the same?

to use da shocks on a ek - da front forks are needed, the rears will fit with no modification.
i ran tokico blues from a da on my ek and it rode like crap.. imo choose shocks that are meant for a ek, da shocks are longer than ek shocks which result in the crappy ride..

ek rear shocks are actually narrower at the mounting point, it'll work wtih washers, but it wont fit perfectly without them

yeah i did notice that there was a gap where the shock mounts to the LCA.. i didnt use washers and it turned out fine, i didnt think that the car would be heavy enough or the force of the ride will cause the shock to cut through the bolt.
