Default springs and shocks?

My cousin has some nuespeed springs and koni yellow adjustable shocks that fit a 92-95 civic. My question is would they fit on my 95 integra Ls? My friend has a lot of civic parts. Do civic and integra parts usually work both ways? thanks.

Usually a certain generation civic part will fit a certain generation integra part (4th gen civic to 2nd gen integra, 5th gen civic to 3rd gen integra) but since the weight is different of the two cars, the suspension parts might do funny things. Like civic springs on an integra will drop it more than it's supposed to and very unevenly. I don't have firsthand experience with this but I think this is generally how it goes. HTH a bit.

They should fit. I remember checking Koni's site a while back, and the part #'s are the same for the shocks on the '92-'95 Civic and the '94-'01 Integra non ITR.
I don't know about the springs, though.

Comparing stock-for-stock, Civic springs are shorter and softer than Integra ones. So if you put stock Civic springs on an Integra that would lower the car a bit. Aftermarket Civic springs will lower an Integra more than their indicated drop for the Civic and will also be softer than their counterpart Integra-specific application.

Stock shocks are the same height however Integra ones are stiffer. The Konis are the same part for both Civic and Integra so go ahead and use the "Civic" ones because they're the same thing you'd get if you ordered the "Integra" application.

Koni yellows are about $500 new. Quality pieces.

See if you can find out about the springrates on those neuspeeds.
