Default integra suspension on a crx

ok, so if any of you have heard about the curbed crx i picked up(bend trailing arms, broken radious rods, bent lcas), i'm also going to be getting an integra that was hit in the rear (for that good old b18a baby) and my Q was, can i change over the entire suspension set up from the teg onto the crx?
it's a 91 dx crx, and i can get a 91-93 teg, depending on what will fit best
thanks

from what i hear the rear should be ok but dont use the teg setup on the front... I am not sure on when the teggy got its make over but I think that 91-93 are the same... If the Teg was a 4 wheel disk that would be an added bonus...

front integra suspension will give you horrible wear on tires because of camber i believe.

I know the suspension from a teg fits the rear of your car for sure, traling arms and all, not sure about the front..

I have done a swap on integra front brakes on a CRX HF and it doesn't seem to have a problem. The brakes were from a 90 teg non-ABS. Going to do the rear soon...peaCe

On my hatchback, I could only use the spindle arm w/ the front brakes, i couldn't use all the control arms and stuff, but the brakes were a big plus. You can defintly use the back end stuff(brakes, trailing arm.)

got teg spindles, calipers, and rotors on my 88 si. used the crx uca, and lca. aligned perfect, and sitting at 1 degree neg camber (perfect). have no clue what you people are talking about. but have had mine checked a few times, and everytime it has come up the same. i've heard this before, and i think it's a crock. mine stops 100x better, and the alignment/camber is fine.....

hey viperredcrx, can you tell me what year you used the uca and lca from the teg from?
i need to get my car to stop, my stock discs and drums aren't stopping my ride, and i definitely need to stop better.
just wondering what year i should get? 90-93? with all disc around and take the whole suspension and i should be fine?

every bit of my suspension came from a 91 teg. the front control arms (upper and lower) are my stock ones, and same with the rear.

did you use the teg springs/shocks too? how do they ride? are they too high and stiff, or too low and soft?

I don't know what you guys are talking about I use 91 teg front knuckles/brakes on my car...no problems for me

I've used the teg front knucles on the track for 3 years and have had zero handling problems from them.

The only bad thing about teg front knuckles are they are heavy
