Quick question
Most coilover kits im finding second hand for the EG/DC have pillow ball top mounts, or top mounts specific for the coilovers, but my question is..., do the EG/DC top mounts fit onto the EE/EF? I'm sure I read somewhere they have thicker bolts?

yup, Adam had EG D2's on his DX, and it was LOW

so does that mean all 88-01 civic/integra's have the same top hats/mounts to the chassis?
i would expect the width of the spring cover part would be smaller/bigger depending on ee/eg/ek/dc

Well, you cant really judge it...
As MeisterR's. are all the same, same shock, same body, same width etc, its just mainly the bottom brackets that are difference (Example, EG is wider etc)

so you need rear LCA's for EG/EK/DC too then, not just front forks?

i think EG Rear LCA's are slightly longer and wider.

EG LCA is same as EF LCA if they are both fork or loop fitment, its the EK ones that are different/longer.

I wouldve thought so since the EG Fork fitment LCA are exactly the same as EF fork LCA.
In which case the DC2 ones are the same aswell then.

Yes, you just need the forks.

Don't know, I've never fitted EK shocks to an EF
