Default 2001 STI Prodrive coilovers made by HKS to fit 99 Type R

Hi guys i have been looking around for some factory optioned goodies for suspension upgrades.

I currently have a set of the pink STI kyb adjustable 4 way shocks with pink gymkhana STI springs to match but the rear collars are getting a bit of scale so i have put some standard shocks in with the black sti springs.
I have been after a really clean set of the pinks pref with low mileage but as they are getting on in age most that turn up are just as bad as the ones i have and stooooupid prices for 15 year old shocks!

I have come across a really neat set of the prodrive coils.

Now....as far as fitting the 2001 prodrive shocks in my type r i have come across a few things.

Firstly from what i can gather the fronts will fit but may have an issue with the camber???

The rears many fit but the top hats will need to be changed?

In our work shop we have a machinist, would it be easy enough to modify the rear top hats to suit the gc8 pattern so i still have the prodrive tops or should these be interchangeable with HKS top has as the are made by them.

Any ideas or if someone has already done this?

Thanks guys
