I will just need EG front forks to make these fit my civic? no other issues? I won them on ebay earlier. think its a bloody good price as they are around £1150 new

No greater fun then backing off the throttle at 7400rpm and spraying fire out the exhaust ;)

I'm not sure on eg ones but I've been told they are almost identical to Ek ones. To get Ek ones to fit to my car I used Ek forks with some spacers.

I made the fork wider on the rears but you can also cut the bush down.

eg forks is all you need to get them on, not sure about EK stuff, but i didn't need any spacers to fit them

the front will sit about 40mm (i think, can't remember) higher with EG shocks, so depending on how low you want to go you need to keep that in mind when setting up your ride height... not sure how low these particular coilovers will go

oh, and the rears will go straight on :top:
