Default RCF suspension on 2is

I have removed my RCF suspension with Swift springs and replaced with Ohlins TTX.
I have a stock 2012 IS350 that has no suspension mods.
Can I use my RCF suspension on the IS350? Can I replace the bushings with RCF bushings? Would the Swift Springs work on the stock struts?
Just wondering if I can transfer anything over.

Quite a few members here had switched to RCF GSF LCA bushings with great outcome.

Swift springs work great with stock shocks.

I have RCF bushings installed about a month ago. Along with my FA coilovers and Figs rear sway.

I wouldn't put RC F suspension on a 2IS for one reason alone, weight difference. The RC F weighs 1800 kg, whereas a 2IS weight 1635 kg. Even if the RC F suspension would fit, it would be way too hard. The stock 2IS suspension is already too hard as it is, depending on the year and trim.
