DA springs/shocks on an ED7?
Well I just messed up the motor in my DA and was wondering if i could interchange the spring/shocks. My DA is riding on KYB's up front and Koni Yellows in back and sprint springs. My ED suspension is stock. So basically what i'm trying to say is can it be done and is it just like installing/uninstalling springs? oh btw the DA is a 90 rs and the ED is a 90 si.

The springs will fit and should feel like a stiffer spring rate but the struts will not work, totally different stroke and size. The springs may not give you the ride height you want but if they do then you may really like the improved feel of them on a lighter car. That is about the only way to come close to having a decent ride on sprints, otherwise I say BURN THEM and buy a real suspension, stay away from KYB also because they tend to blow out on lowered cars way to easy, just go with tokico becuase they are hands down a better strut and guaranteed for the life of your car.)

I had some stock 94 integra shocks/springs on my old crx for a while and it was up there in the air..I would assume 90-93 integra shocks fit also but Ive never tryed it so I cant say for sure..

I had my old DA apart when I was building my REX and compared them to each other, if the DAs would work then I would not have had to but new Tokico 5 ways! THEY DON'T FIT and they are THE WRONG SIZE!!! please don't f_ck up your ride by using improper parts!!!! Just use what is meant to work correctly!!! The rears are your only hope of working but it depends on your LCA and if it corresponds. The EG rears fit right on (the DAs may?) but the fronts DO NOT fit!!! you need EF front struts to do it right!
