Cheers for the tag newkid 
The set of polybushed Konis with lowering springs i have is for a 4th gen - not entirely sure if it would be ideally suited for a 5th gen - is there a difference in how much the you lower the rear between gens
Ive still to fit the front springs but have the rears fully built up as you know.

No difference. 4th and 5th are interchangeable.vanzep wrote:not entirely sure if it would be ideally suited for a 5th gen - is there a difference in how much the you lower the rear between gens

Yeah the 4th and 5th are the same.
JDM 5ths have the 5 stud front top hats, but all UK 5th gens have the holes. 3 stud front top hats fit all 4th and 5th gens.vanzep wrote:is its only the type s 5th gen that has 4 studs on the fronts.....

I think they are 30-35mm lowering springs but i will check and let you know.
I hadnt planned on putting them up for sale just yet as ive still to get the front shocks built up.
They are in very good working order and have been uprated with energy suspension poly bushes all round.
Give me a few days and i will get some pics up.
I havent thought on a price but will drop you a pm once ive totalled up the costs.
How soon are you needing them?
