Default swapable coilover suspension??

so i did some searching and I just wanted to get added confirmation, Will 2nd Gen GS300 front suspension bolt right on? And all thats needed for the rear is to change out the top and bottom mounts from a MKIV on to a 2nd Gen GS body shock?

if anyone that has first hand experiance and not seen a cousins, sisters, best friend, neighbor do it can please confirm i would greatly appreciated it.

Thanks
Tommy

Fellow CL member twojayzee successfully installed 2nd gen GS coilovers in a first gen. It took some work though.

Here is his thread, in it, he describes the installation process

yes, thats one of the threads I was refering to. I just wanted to get more feedback from people with experience.

I ordered 2nd Gen GS fronts and MKIV rears from stance, but from what i'm reading I still need the 2nd gen rear shock body. The Supra one is too short.
