I'm pretty sure none of the parts you listed are compatible, except possibly the calipers and rotors but then you would probably need a different hub and caliper bracket.

I noticed you said you don't want to have any issues, if thats the case you should probably just sell all the gsr parts (save yourself the headache) and get what you can actually swap into your car.

look through the FAQS theres a lot of helpful information https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-crx-ef-civic-1988-1991-3/88-91-crx-ef-civic-frequently-asked-questions-faqs-1508680/

I'm going to beat you with a stick for bumping your own thread over 4 hours in the deep morning, but after I going to eat my breakfast first then head to work before I deal with this.

Even worse, you're a Canadian! TO ARMS!

Until the militia wakes up, here is what you can use:

YES: Rear trailing arms including rear brake assembly
YES: Front brakes if you have EX Civic / DA Knuckles already, but if you do they are the same
NO: Front Spindles
NO: Anything that has any type of geometry to it in the front suspension
NO: Anything that has any type of geometry in the rear suspension

YES: I want a cookie.
