Default 96-00 suspension on a 92?

Quick question I am looking at buying a suspension setup but it is off of a 99 civic but I have a 92. Will the suspension bolt right up or will I have issues? I have after market rear lower control arms. I thought that was the only differences in the years or are there other differences?

the car needs a little more than suspension to make it go faster.

the 92-95 rear lca are wider where the bolt goes thru the bottom of the shock assembly...96-00's have a skinny rear lca...so it's hard to use a rear shock from a 96-00 on a 92-95 (prolly not worth the modification needed)...but it's easier to use a 92-95 rear on a 96-00 (u can just add washers to fill the gap, cuz the 96-00 rear lca is skinnier...

make sense...to sum up my answer would be to find a setup from a dc2 teggy or another 92-95 civic...94-01 integra will bolt right up (except for type r)...u can get type r for your hatch, but u will also need to get type r rear lca's...

the fronts are exactly the same

the rears where they bolt to the LCA's are different

Drew thanks for the info. I am running the d2 lower control arms and you can change out the bushings on those. So I think I can just order the bushings for the 96 and throw them on.
