I don't think so I think your car runs a McPherson strut style suspension and the 92-95 where double wishbone.

as far as I know they will not fit. but anything can be made to fit if you really want to.

the EM1 front LCAs would be your best bet.

also... 01+ has McPherson

yea they will not fit the car 98 civics chaged the chasis so basicaly this is how it is

92-95 civics and 94-01 integras u can iner change parts and u can only use the disc brakes from a integra on a 98 civic.

Christ on a crutch the misinformation is astounding.

any 96-00 rear disc from an ex, lx, or si will work on your 96-00 civic.

92-95 can utilize integra brakes, or any brakes found on their chassis from 92-95.

According to this post, an Integra one will work, thus a 92-95 Civic will too.

you should get 99-00 si LCA's & run 99-00 si front sway (same as 96-00 CTR) - for some reason I think you need more than just LCA's if you want to go 92-95/teggy

I hope you have rear sway bar already - if not a front one is gonna make you car understeer even worse... especially if you are not running a LSD

pretty sure if you won't be able to run 92-95/teggy swaybar/LCA's unless you swap out ek for eg subframe, forks & steering rack - the geometry of everything is different
