Why not just go with some Koni yellows & your choice of springs. Much better, imo.
I would love to go Koni yellows + Skunk2 coilovers...but I don't have money. ITR = the poor man's setup. Slightly lower than stock height, and handles better.

ITR rear LCA's are similar in style to the 88 CRX and JDM Civics and Integras. With these cars, the shock bottoms drop "into" the LCA's rather than go around them with a fork at the bottom. Very easy to understand with pics. But basically, the rear LCA's and rear shocks are different in how they connect to each other. HTH.
