Well rs/ls/gs/gsr springs are all the same, which is what we're looking for. I've heard some people say they don't fit, so I need to hear some more info...

i used to have eibachs for an integra on my car, sat a little higher than stock, blew out the struts and everything tho. so they do fit but they wont lower the car one bit, if he wants his car lowered tell him to spend 150 bucks and buy a set of springs that are made for the car

Just curious, but why did you drive your car with Integra springs that raised your car higher than stock and blew your struts out?? I would have taken them off immediately.

Thanks for the info though...I've learned from your mistake, too bad you had to be the guinea pig.

the itr's are a half inch lower so the ef may sit a little lower than stock, but probably not a noticeable difference
