Default Will this setup fit a 1999-2000 Honda Civic EX coupe?

Hey guys, I hope this post is in the right place.

Anyways, I own a 1997 Acura Integra LS. I currently have Koni Yellow Sportmax struts and shocks along with Ground Control coilovers on my car. I ordered this setup for a 94-01 Integra, and I am curious if my shocks/struts and coilovers will fit on a 99' or 00' Honda Civic EX coupe. I may be able to get a good deal on a nice civic, and I was wondering if i can carry over my setup. Has anyone on here done this or in the same situation?

Thanks in advance for any information provided

The fronts will, no problem. With the rears, you'll need to shave the LCA bushings where the struts go over.

Alright, is it wise to have a shop make it work ? This is for my daily driver, so it needs to be done right. Or what is the best way to go about doing this ?

If you have a grinder you can do this. If not, I would let a shop do it.

Actually, he'll need to add spacers to install Integra rear dampers on a '96-00 Civic.

Ok, so i will need some spacers? If i get spacers, do I still have to shave the bushings?

Any more opinions or information I need to know about this ?

No you just need 4, 5mm spacers. Put one at each point there the fork meets the bushing and you are good to go

Yup...spacers will be all you need.

96-00 rear lca's have a narrower shock mount bushing than that of the 92-95 civic and 94-01 integra.
