Default Classic shock absorbers

Are all classic shock absorbers interchangeable between all classic versions?

Physically they are, only difference I believe is the later STI ones have 50mm inserts. Don't think it's advisable to mix n match.

Although, I'm not sure if the rears off a Turbo model will fit a sport, the fronts do though.

Cheers Micky,

Wouldn't be mix and match... Really just wondering if V5/6 STI goes onto V3/4 STI.
