No disadvantages. Just the different forks. Double check in the rear LCA. I think the EK is the only one with a different LCA. You might be good.

and if the car in your garage is a 90, you'll be fine. only year ef's you have to worry is the 88's. ek's are little different, but nothing a washer couldn't help. other then that, no other advantages or disadvantage.

You wont be able to go as low with eg/dc coilovers. If slamming your car is what you want, then just buy the correct coilovers for you car.
