The rears definately will not work unless you mess about drilling the body where the top mounts are.

You would need to use gc8 topmounts which kind of defeats the object if the coilovers have adjustable camber plates on them.

As above they will fit,but rear top mounts are different and you will need to swap rear top mounts for classic one
