i would recommend going aftermarket and getting shocks for you 96 civic. the integra rear shocks are slightly different than you civic shocks.

i currently have koni (yellows on my 93 civic. they are nothing but the best!

 

Koni's get my vote, you can find some used for $300-400

You'll probably never need to buy shocks again.

actually if the op knows how to bargain, he can get his new for that price.
i paid $450 brand new, in the koni box, all 4. and yes it was from a respectable shop!

 

KONI YELLOWS FTW

 

Koni Yellow are good.

The Koni Yellows with the Ground Control sleeves are a great combo! You'll enjoy them!

They should only be used as stock replacements or on VERY mild drops. I would maybe put them on some tein s-tech springs. 1.7-1.8" drop.

Meh. I've had my time with shock combos.

Also, tokico's site tells you what types of applications the shocks should be used for.

 

I would like to put some Koni Yellows on my civic. Where can I find this good price?? Also, what springs would you guys recommend? I autocross, but I don't want too harsh of a ride, since it's a daily.

 

there's a dealer in the marketplace selling new koni yellows for $450 shipped.

 

can you link that dealer or place that sell the koni yellows?
