ok, well the ep3 parts wont bolt up, your best bet is to forget the ek9 suspension, cuz its the same as the eg suspension, go with a older dc inegra 93 or so

Parts list
Left/right
Rear Trailing arms w/ disk brakes otherwise this is pointless $200/pr
Rear Compensator arms $30/pr
Rear lower control arms $70/pr
New brake rotors/pads $180/front/rear

Shocks if u want to... but id get a set of aftermarket coilover shocks or get on ebay and pick up the struts/ cheapy cloil overs and that would be much better than stock $100-$1900 (Stock would be about 100 for all of them cheap ebay kyb shocks and cheap coilovers run about $250 and are a world of diffrence then you have your high end cusco and tein which will run you between 1100-2500 for full body coilovers, adjustable shocks and much much more fun

Front left/right
Sway bar $60
Calipers $30 ( get new ones for $45 a peice at an auto parts store just get them for a 93 integra and i belive they will bolt on to your steering knuckle if not then
Steering knuckles $150
rotors $50/pr
brake hoses (new from parts store $30 bucks)

Fun parts... **Without these your brakes will not function propperly whatsoever**
93 integra brake booster new- $150 junkyard $75 recomended
1 Inch master cylinder from the 93 vs the civic 3/4" i belive rebuilt $45 Junkyard-$20- not recomended
porportioning valve for those discs in the rear to work right $30 junkyard should be fine

I would charge 1300 including parts and labor using junkyard parts
Seeing as though u havent lookd into the swap at all... i can almost bet that you would have to have somone do it for you.. its not easy especially if u want front upper control arms lower control arms, swaybars, knuckles ect.

The steering components dont really change between the 2 just the brakes and spring rates of the stock springs

Noone on here will go into detail as to how you install it all, so either research and figure it out, or bring it to a shop, or me :-) im in the process of replacing all my stock suspension right now so i know my ****
