I have them. I'm not sure about it raising your car up, but I can tell you that it really minimizes the shock travel in the front. I have it lowered approx 1" and the front shocks have very little shock travel left. I'm working on getting some CRX shocks now.

i would just get the EG forks and use the shocks, I think they are much cheaper than getting new shocks for EF

I had EG shocks on my 90 Civic Si before. The shocks can bottom out quite easily if your springs lower your car more than 1.5 inches. It is not a good feeling when you are rounding a turn and you have used up all your shock travel. All you would get is massive understeer.
