Default Will a DC Integra suspension set-up work on EG?


My brother is getting rid of his suspension set-up on his 98' Integra and upgrading to Tein Basic coilovers. Will his old KYB AGX adjustable shocks and Ground Control adjustable springs perform as well on my EG as they did for his integra?

i know they will bolt on easily and work, but my question lies in if the characteristics and handling capabilities will be compromised on my hatchback. thanks for any input.

Yes they will work on your EG.

However I necessarily would not consider going from AGX/Ground Control to Tein Basics and Upgrade to his suspension...

In any case, He probably wouldn't want his brother to know that info..

The teg parts should feel a bit stiffer on the civic. How much more would depend on what civic & integra models they are since weight is the major factor here. I would definently put them on my civic if I had the oportunity...

yeah, i was gonna put them on regardless, but i was just wondering what you guys knew from experience. im sure that this will give me exceptional handling whether they are for a civic or an integra. thanks though.

based on what you guys have installed on your cars, is this a good set-up?

DON'T SLAM IT. You will blow out those shocks.

This man speaks the truth, from what I've heard anyway. Maybe someone with more experience with them can tell you how low you can run those shocks safely.

It can be a good enough setup, depending on what you expect from the car, and what the spring rates are. I'm running Koni Yellows and GC, no complaints.
