Default Em2/EP3 Shocks on RSX

i read the Suspension FAQ saying that the RSX shocks can be used on EM2/EP3 but can i use the EM2/EP3 on RSX? i know i have to use the civic's tie rods but anything else? my main concern is that will there be any vibrations or rattling? has anybody ran the civic/ep3 suspension and have any issues? i am looking for shocks and the only 2 are made for the RSX that i seen are the KYB GR-2s and Koni yellows. i need shocks soon and i heard GR-2 are OE replacements, the Konis are too much for a DD. i saw on a few sites saying the same part numbers for EP3/RSX. if this is the only route im gonna have to do it. if u gonna ask, i am running Tein S-Techs.thanks

Why would you run stock struts on lowering springs? Buy aftermarket struts designed for lowering springs for your vehicle. Go with those Koni Yellows they are very nice. Or sell your springs and buy a coilover setup
