I just bent some suspension parts on my '96 Civic coupe and I was wondering which parts can be swapped on in it's place. I've heard Type-R and Integra components and be used. Is there anything else that may fit or help to increase rigidness? I need to get this fixed but can find cheaper parts from other vehicles. Any other tricks would be helpful too.

 

Any integra can have parts......what did you brake/bend??

 

You can use any 94+ integra or Type-R FRONT shocks+spring assembly on an EK civic. For the rear you can only use 96+ EK civic shocks, CTR shocks, or just plain aftermarket suspension made for the EK chassis.

However, you cannot use rear 94+ integra rear shocks.....especially type-R or JDM EG/DC rear shocks since the EK chassis is not compatible with the 'box' type rear lower control arms aka JDM rear lower control arms. Any EG/DC rear lower control arms are not feasible to use because they're are too short in design even if you do get them to work, you'll have some incredible positive camer issues..heh..

 

you can use 94 integra rear shocks, but you'll need to use washers
to fill the gap as EK has a narrower rear LCA at the bushing.
