Are most civic and Integra suspension parts swappable? For instance... I want a stiffer spring rate due to a engine swap and was wondering if Integra springs or coil-overs would be swappable to a civic? Also what about the Sway-bars shocks and strut tower bars?
Thankyou for any replies.

Thankyou for this information! I figured that this was true however I wanted to know for sure before purchasing any new products.

Usually if you buy the integra setups youll get a stiffer spring rate. Its great for performance but if youre just looking for a cruising setup keep in mind that the ride will be rougher.

If youre talkin about the JDM shocks then youll need integra lower control arms other wise its not required. If youre using an OEM anti-roll bar then youll need integra (USDM) LCAs to utilize the mounting points.

Can I use integra springs and civic shocks (after-market of course!) or will this not work?
