nup - these are actually EK9 ones. All it takes is to either change the rear lower bush to a EK one or slightly shave the bush itself. Works fine ~ .

Dam these things are chunky and shiny

Mr Benj, ive heard ek shocks in an EG will actually make the rear sit higher than it would using EG/DC shocks... true? false? i cant really see how unless the actual shock is longer or if ur using an EK LCA and it sits significantly higher?

strange since ive actually heard that EK front shocks are slightly higher than EG/DC....since ive pulled out stock EK sprigns before and they seem significantly longer than EG's etc. Oh well !
For what its worth , these are coilovers and have a good 4 inches of adjustment so the small difference should be not noticeable at all when adjusting the height on my EG :thumbsup: Well lets hope :D

EK Civic R

I got Type Flex in my EG..
There alright for ordinary street use, but haven't tracked yet...
Hoping to soon..

Friend of mine has the Hyper Max II on his S15..
They are unbelieveably stiff.. It's like there is no shock or spring just a steal bar in place.. Cornering on smooth road is just fantastic, but I wouldn't recommended for daily drive..
His taken his out and put his stockies back on now..

would the same theory work with fitting these coils to a dc2 vtir?

yes they will fit in the same way since the dc2 vtir has a very similar suspension setup as a EG VTi or Si ~ give or take a few varibles in rates and valving in the shocks.In that thought , I would think that the EK9 sussy is ore so rated to the Ek's and EG's weight , so it maybe alittle soft for a DC chassis.
~ Better off finding the correct DC2 setup for your car :)
