Default DA & EF Coilover compatibility

I just purchased a set of skunk2 pro-c for my crx, but given the fact that I swapped out my drums for discs off of a 93 integra, i bolted up the coilovers and have an issue with them being too short, so my questions is would i have a similar problem in the front being too long if I was to go ahead and purchase a full-coilover set for a 93 integra and have that installed on my crx?

No, you don't.

A brake conversion and coilovers have nothing to do with each other.

No, but the rears will be incorrect lengths.

You can also have perches built for your rear to run shorter set ups... I have seen this many times on DA/DB chassis

ive had a pair of rear trailing arms from a dc on my ef before, and the shocks bolt up. you shouldnt have a problem with any clearance issues.
