Civic suspension upgrade?

Anybody know if the Tein Coil-over kit for a 94 civic will fit on the 96 civic? Not sure what changed between the models. My friend has a setup I can get from him but would be worthless unless it can fit my 96.

Any help woud be GREAT.

Thank you

They will not work, not as they are anyway.

The Tein website shows the different generations as having completely different part numbers which means there are significant enough differences to necessitate different designs.

Re: Civic suspension upgrade?

ok the part numbers are different but with the Type R disc brake set up will fit both a 94 and a 96 so with that swapped into the 6th Gen the rear will be the same at the 94 was setup and be able to use the Tein setup from the 94 also, right? the only diffence I then see would be the front end which I am wondering if they are the same between the 5th and 6th Gens
