Default 99 integra on ef shocks/springs?

so the story goes, i am having a kid soon, and i parted out my ef that i was building. the ef had some brand new agx adjustable shocks and skunk2 springs. i mean less than 80 miles on them. if i put thes on the integra would it slam it too much. i know when i put integra shock spring on my ef it rode too high. has anyone tried ef suspension on a dc integra

dumped = not the best riding car for an infant child.

IMHO a baby/infant should be riding in a STOCK vehicle with no suspension mods of any kind that would make it ride stiffer or more harsh than stock.

When my wife and I have kids they will most likely ride in my wife's car most of the time.

well thats the thing, me ef dident have a stiff harsh ride. it was actually pretty decent. so i figure i give it a try on the integra. i know the integra is much heavier. if not i could always put the stock stuff back on

add about another inch to the drop, and that's a pretty good guess.

your wheels will be tucked under your fender, may be even more. i did this with my eg. my brother had wrecked his ef and he had tein ss coilovers. i straight swaped them over with out adjusting ride hight. on his car it was zero gap, but not low. when i put it on my eg, my wheels were tucked, and i had to roll my front fenders, the rears were okay. it was to low, it looked really nice though. i later raised it about 1/2 an inch to 3/4 inch, then it was fine.

so, expect to have a nice, dumped looking car if you do this swap. and dodge every single pot hole out there
