Default Couple Questions for DC Suspension on DA

I have a 1991 Integra LS. I needed new back struts and springs. I accidentally ordered a complete strut spring combo for the 1994+ Integra. From my reading, it bolts up. Cool. But stock for stock, will it mess with my ride height? It seems the DA has a longer strut but that doesn't really answer my question as the spring has something to do with it.

For the front, I know I'll need new front forks if I use DC struts up there. Can I get away with DC rears and DA fronts or will I end up looking like I put a few well fed adults in the back seat?

In a nut shell yes your ride height will be messed up and the rear will be drastically lower, because of the different heights (DC vs DA) for the front you have to look out for rubbing with the DC forks. I found a few topics addressing DC suspension in a DA on G2IC:

DA vs. DC front suspension - worth converting? - Generation 2 Integra Club Forum

Thanks... I was hoping it'd just sit about an inch lower but we will see. I asked the seller if he has the correct rears so it won't mess up my height that bad. I just really don't want to mess with compressing the spring and the mount.
