The rear springs are slightly different than the EM2's. If they were coilovers, I would say they're usable. But, if they're just springs, I'll say they'd need some work.

Height and coil wind for sure, I'm not 100% certain on the diameter.

I have RSX springs on my car, not sure about how EP3 springs will do though. Try it out!
