Default Do v2/v3 pistons fit in Blobs?

Quick question hopefully for someone that knows.

Would v2/v3 sti pistons fit in an '03 blob WRX or are there differences with rods/heads/compression etc?

Had a search but couldn't find an answer..

cheers

As above, plus Version 2 'dog-bones' are different to Phase 1.5 ( version 3~4 ) pistons.
