RSX suspension?

I noticed that RSX springs and 7th gen civic springs are interchangeable (not recommended due to the different spring rates). But what I am getting at is has anyone out there physically compared the RSX suspension to the 7th gen civic. I would like to get some tein or spoon coilovers for my civic, but I dont know if the acutual spring and strut combinations of the RSX and 7th gen civic have the same dimensions.

Can anybody help with this?

so...what are u getting at? u heard they fit and u want to know if its a good idea to use the rsx aftermarket coilovers...personaly i don't see why not. the rates are different of course. the rsx are alot stiffer... the ride quality might be a little bumpy from the stiffness.....but would work just fine over all. now the civics aftermarket suspension is just as good......and would be better to use, as far as ride quality....

Basically what I am asking is can I take the suspension out of an RSX (front and rear) and bolt it up to my 2k1 civic mounting points? If anyone can prove my theory, then we will have opened the door to many more suspension manufacturers then what is availible now.
