i am not sure if they will bolt up the same.....and you car will sit higher if you have the stock 2nd gen springs on the car....

there are not alot of parts that will bolt-on interchange between the 1st and 2nd gens.....thats why there are alot of year specific parts

im getting some GR2's to replace mine, the fronts are starting to go, I was only going to buy 2 front ones and strut mounts but thats gonan cost me almost 350 bucks, if I do it myself. So I figure im gonna buy 4 of em on ebay for 200 or so, and someone from the org is gonna find me some front strut mounts. The 2 rears I have are still ok, the back doesnt bounce or bottom out, but if im getting 4 new ones I may aswell put the good ones in
