My car above, the front is adjusted to max low and the back is to maximum high. I could have adjusted it lower by taking down the spring preload on the front, but handling would have been adversely affected.
I ended up using the dc2r Tein flex and had spacers made to increase the shock length at the back. The car sits higher now and I'm happy with that.

To answer you question though, da9 specific coilovers would be the right length, shorter in the front and longer in the back and you will have better height adjustment

Great news for me today, the seller emailed me today and said that he found a set of TEIN DSA32-2USS1 SS-P Coilovers for DA Integra. These are the next model up from the ones I was getting. They are $300 more than the ss series. The seller said if I pay half of that, (The extra cost) he'll be happy to send them for $1450, due to the first sale going wrong from his end. Sweet!! now I don't have to worry about a DC conversion. Just on another topic I installed cold Air intake, and extractors. Now my car is leaning out. I could tell from the spark plugs being white and the performance some what decreasing after 4000 rpm. Can anyone help with that issue plz?

Not 100% sure on this, but did you reset the ECU after installing the parts? Did you install the O2 sensor correctly, and all the vacuum lines to the new intake?

Out of curiosity, which intake and headers did you get? I'm thinking of getting some Megan 4-2-1s from ebay, comes to about $250 landed. The reviews on G2IC are mostly positive...

EDIT: You may want to take a look at this: http://forums.g2ic.com/showthread.ph...g-for-the-buck. Someone is saying that the pillowballs make the ride very hard, makes sense... Seems like they're really only good if you're going to be tracking your car?

I didn't know about resetting the ECU. I done a bit of research and reset the ECU this morning. Took it for a drive after 10min Idling, and noticed a difference. I'll drive it for a couple of days and check the plugs again for their color. Thanks for the tips though

#1 is front of engine (pulley side)

there should be timing marks on the timing belt cover.
