They will fit but I think there is something about them that isn't right for them to be interchangeable. My tokico shocks and coilovers are compatible for a 88-91 (i think) civic and 94-01 integra

anytime you're using dc2 coilovers on 92-00 civic or 94-up integra, you have to replace the lower control arms with the ones of the type r.

Doesn't apply to all coilovers.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aern't the EK and dc2/eg/ITR LCAs a different length from one another? Which would make it impossible to swap them?

You may need the entire GSR, ITR, EG rear assembly.

Not 100% sure.

dc2 is any 94-2001 integra, dc2 is not just a type r.

Not sure if this helps but my ek got totalled and so i bought a DC4. I swapped the rear GroundControls/tokicos onto the integra - no problem. But i think w/ the fronts, the spring rate is different because of the b-series engine weighing more than a D-series (correct me if i'm wrong). I hope the guy w/ the ek has a B-series under the hood

DB7: 4dr B18B
DB8: 4dr B18C
DC4: 2dr B18B
DC2: 2dr B18C

FYI, a DC2 is any B18C equipped 2 door integra. 4 door integras are DB
