Default Will 90 Integra struts fit 90 Civic that's lowered?

Maybe not the absolute best title, but here goes:

I browsed the Koni catalog online, and noticed that for the Civic/CRX 88-91, the "yellow" sports struts are not externally adjustable.
Not what I'm looking for in an auto-X car.

However, the same struts for the 90-93 DA9 Integra do offer external adjustability.

My concern is this: lowering the car apx. 2.0" (Progress springs) might cause the struts to have even less travel, if the Integra strut body is longer...

Has anybody used 90-93 Integra struts on their Civic/CRX?

Hmmm...you mean nobody runs Koni Yellows on their Civics/CRXs with aftermarket springs? That's strange...

Koni offers an externally adjustable yellow for the civic/crx. I have the koni/GC setup and have to admit, it is the best setup I have ever run on any car I have owned.

i do not think there would be any problem. i thought the 4th gens and 90-93 tegs suspension were interchangeable?

Thank you all for your replies. I know I've seen it on this board before, but it seems like the old, old posts are omitted from the search results.

jisu009 - Can you look on your receipts, or do you know what the front/rear part #s are. Sorry - the Koni website just isn't giving me much.

mr. carpenter - That is what I remember as well, but I also remember reading that the actual shock body is longer...

USDM 4G VTEC - I'm looking into Koni adjustable shocks, but it's good to have options - thanks.
