If you have stock on the vehicle now it will make a diferance. 94-01 teg and 92-95 civics got basically the same setup so it will just bolt right in. ....GO FOR IT!

Are the kyb's adjustable??

I have the tokico Illuminas (adj from 1-5) and love the adjustability. I've ridden in a hatch that had the blue's and it felt like we were on the 2-3 setting, which bothered me (b/c I run 1-2 in winter... and 4-5 in summer). I know my little story doesn't really have relivance.... other than, no adjustability sucks.

If the kybs are adjustable, do it.
Or step it up and get the Illuminas

I have ridden in 2 cars with the tokico blues in them, and the ride is amazing. Personally i would go with the blues, unless, as already mentioned, the kyb's are adjustable.
