Default suspension interchangeable?

I am about to purchase a 92 civic sedan and i am thinking of putting my Ground controls and tokico 5 ways from my CRX to the sedan. is this possible? I just dont want to start over, when i already have a good start to begin with.

wont work, 88-91 cars have much shorter struts and springs than the 92+ style.

Default it will work..

but you need to use your CRX's front drop forks along with the front shocks. The rears should bolt up too. You will have a bit more travel since the EF shocks have about half an inch shorter body than 92+ civic shocks.

I use to have EF shocks on my EG a long long (98) time ago.....before my TEIN days.
