Default 1992-2000 springs are the same right?

I am putting stock springs back in my EG. Just wanted to make sure if I used springs from a 96-2000 they would fit. Im pretty sure they do, just want confirmation. Thank you.

just curious on the compatibility. 94-00 integras and 93-97 del sols share the same springs correct? the ones i'm going to get, they're made by sprint. on the sprint site those 2 cars are listed under the same part # so i'm guessing their the same.

and are these stiffer than h&r race spring rates?
they're green by the way. i don't know why

You can put Integra springs onto Civics, but the rates are different because of engine/chassis weights. Sprints are not stiffer than H&R Races. For one, they're progressive, so they'll feel very cushy. Secondly, they're Sprint, which means they'll lower your car but aren't designed for super aggressive driving like H&Rs. (I actually ran Sprints with Koni Yellows on my EJ8.) They worked okay when my Yellows were turned super stiff, but for serious driving you'd want the stiffer spring rates of the Races, not to mention their linear design.

For a Civic, the H&R Sports are listed as 330/280, so the Races will obviously be stiffer than that. Can't find Sprint spring rates, but I can guarantee they will be nowhere near the Race's and probably not as stiff as the Sports, either.
