So i found someone that is willing to do the labor of installing some stock shocks back on my 97 integra for $80. Now all I need is the stock shocks.

He mentioned that I can use some civic shocks if I can't find integra but mentioned they are little more bouncy than Integras. Is that true?


And what year Civic should I be looking for? I'll be doing my search on craigslist over the weekend. Some advice would be appreciated.

 

92-95 civic, any model. using civic struts will allow for a bit bouncier ride, but theres not a huge difference. new civic truts would feel like old integra struts. if you use integra springs, you should be okay. if you are talking about a direct bolt-up, i think the car may be a bit low on civic springs

should have what your looking for

 

its going to be pretty direct. I'm not really trying to go through a lot of trouble just to raise my car.

So now that you mentioned it, I guess I should stick to Integras since Civics may keep my car below stock height.

 

I believe the struts are identical, its the springs which have different springs rate that will give you a bumpier ride since the integra rates are stiffer.

 

^Yeah.
