integra knuckles on a civic/crx will throw off the suspension geometry, you need 90-91 EX knuckles they are the same size as the teg's i believe...

I think they will bolt up fine, but they sit at a funny angle compared to the 88-91's Plus they are taller. thus throwing off the geometry of the suspension.. I have read that as well.

Yes, I will be doing the 90-91 ex upgrade... no worries, just need parts!
