Default Civic/Integra Prokit fitment

Friend of mine just recieved an Eibach Prokit for his 94 Integra, however he traded the integra for a prelude yesterday.

I have a 94 Civic Si, and my former 93 Civic Si had a Prokit as well. The integra spring will fit, bolts up, however it is a different part number, obviously made for the Integra's weight not the Civic's.

I have a B18c motor lined up to be dropped into my Civic soon, should I just install the integra springs now to accomodate for the added weight of the Integra motor, as I would probably end up installing them after/prior to the swap anyways?

I can't imagine the slight spring rate difference affecting my driving whilst the D-series motor is still in the car now.

Opinions, thanks.

A few hours of my time

I'm not expecting them to feel drasticaly different than the other part number designed for the Civic, just wanted to see if anyone had some other factors to consider than I might be missing.

I'm getting a killer deal on them and KYB AGX's from the same car, both parts bolt up so I figure might as well, they're brand new and saves me a few hundred bucks.

Exact same setup I had on my 93 Si, I was just a bit weary of them coming from an Integra, but it bolts up so shouldn't be a problem.

Will do. Should be done this weekend or the next, depending on if my bud goes skiing or not.

The Civic kit lowers 1.4front and 1.2rear, while the Integra kit is 1.3 all around. Close enough, I don't think there will be any issue, but please if anyone has done this before, let me know if you ran into any issues. Thanks!
