Ususally the struts are the same since the Civic and Integra are similar. The springs though, they usually have a stiffer spring rate for the Integra. I would go with Integra rate springs if possible.

ok

H&R race springs for my 95 civic cx drops the vehicle.....

2.5-front
2.0-rear

While the race springs for a 95 integra drop it

2.0-front
1.75 back

My car is a 4x4er and I am positive I want to do the civic height, but can i change or get my own spring rates? Does any body know the rates for h&r race for 95 integra and civic?

from what i know and been told the springs rates are the same with civic and integs...its the struts that are diffrent...just upgrade your front shocks to integ spec and you should be good.
