Default ATTN: b18c5-eh2 just making sure about my rear discs/coilovers

I asked this already but only got one reply. I have a 92 civic cx and bought the rear trailing arm assembly from a '00 civic Si. Just wandering if I'm gonna have any problems bolting them on. More importantly, am I gonna have problems bolting my full coilovers (RED suspension) to them. I heard I might have to get itr lcas or just "trim the bushing". Need solid answers please. I did a search and read a million threads, like this one:

but I still can't find my exact situation. Also will the ebrake cables be too long ? And can I use my current lcas and save some hassle?

I could've sold my setup today and probably should've and went and found rears from a gsr instead to save myself all this trouble. Sorry I know you all hear these questions all day long but I haven't read this one yet.

anyone for future for reference?

I just sold them so it's not an immediate problem anymore.

You might want to check the EG forum. Tom mods over there so he might see the question quicker

Use the si trailing arm but use your civic lca. Whatever coilovers are on your lca's now will still fit. Unless you bought coilovers meant for an itr with the "eye socket" on the bottom, then you use itr lca's with the si trailing arm. DO NOT USE THE 99-00 SI LCA.

Thanks man, but now I feel like an idiot for selling my rears not knowing I could've used my civic LCAs (I'd want a swaybar eventually anyway). The swap was so clean too...
