You beat me to it, but I will be using Illumina's in the rear. I was wondering how these guys were getting rear AGX's for the DA. I know about the conversion, but that doesn't count.

I would not recommend '89-91 Civic rears if you do not have adjustable springs. The perches on the civics are about 1/2"+ taller than the stock struts and it jacks up the back of your car. I had them on my DA w/ Eibach Sportlines and it looked dumb. If you have adjustable springs then you can just bring them down a bit.

Well all i know is that when I had the front on 2 and the rear on 4, the *** end jumped all around like hell...not jaw breaking hole hitting jolts, just jumpy and very springy. Either way, I run 1 on the highway b/c MINE are as stiff as they get on 1 and keep the car from bouncing...

maybe your little stickers showing the setting on the shock were put on wrong.
