Will rsx stock shocks fit our cars?
My friend just put the coilover on his rsx s. I was wondering will the shocks from rsx s fit on our car? I have neuspeed sport spring on my sedan and the ride is really bouncy with stock shock. I was thinking those shocks might improve ride quality.

Yes, but it may or may not be worth the money. If you have an 03+ than your mount bolts should be 16mm. that is good because RSX shocks are 16mm. If you have 01-02 then you have 14mm and you will need an adapter kit (but I am not sure if they sell it separately). You also will need new tie rod ends. The DC5 tie rod ends are larger so you will need to get a set of those. Those are $70 from www.hondautomotiveparts.com You can try to see if the tie rods fit, but I think the hole in the strut will be too large for the civic tie rod end.
The upper mount also may be different. I don't know much about upper mounts so I can't give you any more info than that.
