Default civic supension Advice

I went to a junk yard and found this 94-01 integra 2 door. Sitting in the trunk are a full set(4) KYB gr2 stuts with what appears to be stock springs. I am going to see if I can get them cheap this week.
Now, Will all four of these struts and stock springs fit into my 95 civic coupe? (I actually searched this one) Is the ride/ compression height and rate the same between integras springs and civic springs?

Are kyb's really worth the extra buck. I dont think im gonna notice any difference, but ehat do you guys think?

So, i went to the junk yard. I looked in the car and the struts were gone! I then went to the desk and asked the guy about them. He had taken them out and shelved them for sale. I asked him about tem and he gave me a price quote. 75$ each, thats right for each of the four struts. He said he'd make a deal with me. All four for $235! WOW, what a character. I then told him that I could get them from autozone new for probably less, with a limited lifetime. He said to me "Then go to autozone." I said, "is this any way to run a buisness, when people come to your yard, they expect a deal on used parts that you charge factory prices on! You really dont understand the concept behind salvage, do you?" The he got pissed. He was like, " get the **** out, I dont need your **** kid" Then i was like, "kid? Im 22 *******, i dont need your ******* buisness, if that is what you actuallt consider this!" So i left, and my friend lit up so much smoke in the parking lot that the guy came out screaming with both middle fingers elevated to their peek. I felt like I was in high school again... the immaturity just came so natural. As dumb and useless as the situation must have seemed, it was fun stooping to this old bastards level. Just thought that I'd tell the story of how i drove 60 miles for nothing. That aggrivated me more than old grumpy mr. Jones.
