Default 5 lug in EG, what suspension?

ok, i searched. but its kind of hard to search for this topic when you cant use phrases like "type R" because R will be removed from the search, and same with "eg" or "eh"

anyways. in a 92-95 hatch with a 5 lug, what shocks/ LCA's will i need? i remembered reading something about needing different shocks in the back because the LCA's are wider or something along those lines.

so do i get shocks for an integ, or civic?

Depends if you use the rear ITR LCAs. If so then yes, you can only use ITR shock applications due to the shape of the shock body and how it bolts to the LCA.

Are there any advantages to the ITR LCAs over a stock EK LCA?

You can't use ITR LCA's on EKs. Different length.

I was asking on an EK. Thought it was semi related as I'm putting a 96 ITR brake setup on my hatch next weekend.

Yep since I was replying to Ricey, you need to use your stocks or if CTRs are thicker and you can use those.

As long as you use your stock rear LCA, you can use your coilovers. And yes, you don't have to put ITR LCAs.
