Can you use Neuspeed race springs (for a civic) and after market shocks with a B18 installed in a hatch? Or would it be best to install integra race springs being that the spring rates may be different? Any help is appreciated.

Id go with the integra springs due to the higher spring rate. The ride will be a little harsher but less bouncy. Youll also get less body roll and brake dive.

Good luck with that. Ground Controls customer service has been pretty shitty lately. Unless you know exactly what you need such as spring rates spring height etc. theyll just toss you the generic teg coilovers. Not a bad setup but for the $300+ youll end up paying for them Id figure out exactly what you plan to do with this car suspension wise and then purchase a set based on that.
