Default Lifting a 90 civic?

Am thinking about putting Integra arms brakes and springs on my 90 civic hatch.
Question 1 will this fit on the car easily?
question 2 will this lift the car?

the springs and shocks fit no problem, and lift the car.
But the brakes get complicated and the controll arms and and knuckles ect throw off the camber. search for details on those topics, there are tons of threads covering these.

everything but the upper arms will fit, and it will sit a tad higher due to the stiffer springs. my buddy's hatch drove decent with this setup on integra eibach pro springs. get coilovers and it's a great setup

be sure to use the ef toe adjustment arm as well, the integras are shorter causing toe in out the ***, i found this out on mine
