dr_broon Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Am I right in thinking that the only difference fitment wise for dc2 shocks is the forks on the rears? When I got the skunk LCAs fitted they needed to machine the bush down to be able to fit the shocks, so presumably the LCAs were eg/dc2 ones. I've got to get some better shocks, and miss the konis I used to have, and am thinking about going down the integra route if it will work.

KiNK43 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Depends on the model dc2. Some have fork rear. But most of them have a bush on the shock absorber and different LCA.b 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing these ones are the fellas if they're okay for EGs as well (and the picture is right). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I'd take a guess at them being ok yeah. What springs would you use? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's so much guess work in modding these cars I'll try and get more info before ordering anything It'll be with my eibach ones which are for the deck. They're too much for the oem spec shocks to take, and doesn't help with them being so compressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 they will physically fit I'm positive of that. Only curious about the length of the rears mainly. As the deck is bound to be heavier. I recall using eg coilovers on my previous mb6 and they were fine but ended up being low possibly more down to the spring rate rather than the damper?

Yeah, that's playing on my mind as well - there are 3 height settings on the koni rear shocks, but might not be enough to compensate. Probably going to have to try and find out from koni... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
