Default What kind of suspensions are interchangable with 90-93 DA integra?

Kind of a dumb question sorry, i have a set of stock shocks off a 2000 Civic SI, will these fit a 1991 integra coupe?

Well i know the 00 civic's will not fit a dc because of the thickness of the rear lca but the front fit. Now I do not believe any DC suspension will fit on any DA. I could be wrong but i'm trying to narrow it down for you. I'll see what else I can find.

Here's some more info i found NOTE THIS IS NOT MY INFORMATION THIS IS INFORMATION I FOUND FROM SEARCHING ON GOOGLE just trying to help someone out.


The EG and DC stock suspensions are basically the same, there may be spring rate & shock damper differences between the two, which I don't know the specs of, but the overall mechanical design makes this suspension interchangeable between 1988-00 Civic and Integras. If you're planning to use any EG/DC suspension on your DA, you'll need to acquire the following parts:

EG/DC: front drop forks
all 4 shocks
(springs are optional- you can reuse DA springs or use EG/DC springs, it's up to you).
The reason you need the front drop forks from an EG/DC is this: the shock-bottom hole diameter in the EG/DC drop fork is wider than DA drop forks because EG/DC shocks are 'fatter' shocks. (See pics below)

The EG/DC suspension will bolt right up to a DA chassis, and there is an added bonus! If you take a set of rear DA and EG/DC stock shocks & compare them side to side, you will notice that the DA shocks are almost 2.5 inches LONGER than the EG/DC shocks! That's a good thing! (More ride if you go lower.)

Additional info: You can also incorporate ITR shocks onto a DA, which is more of a performance stock shock over normal EG/DC shocks. You'll have to get the ITR rear lower control arms though. They're a different design of lower control arm known as 'box style'. You need that LCA because of the rear shock bottom style, on the ITR rear shocks. ITR front shocks mount the same as EG/DC shocks+drop forks.
