Some shocks like Koni and Bilstein require specific sleeves. http://www.ground-control.com will answer all your questions.

if you are getting only the coilover sleeves, not the complete coilover system, then you will need to get the coilovers sleeves for a 88-00 civic/94-01 integra, those are all the same

The sleeves are all the same, but the spring rates will be different. If you do order a set from another car, make sure they are the spring rates you want. If you order them directly from ground control, you can order any custom spring rates you want though...

I know from personal experience that 88-91 civic and 90-93 integra were the same. 88 has different rear shocks though. I have a problem of my own though. I prob need to start my own thread though
