no, springs are specific to the 92-01 preludes, and some break it down to 4th gen and 5th gen

even though both will fit between 4th/5th gen. its just the SH has slightly different stuff (although you could switch to base shocks and that would remove that problem)

4th gen and 5th gen base have the same spring design, just usually different rates for the front because of the weight difference. SH is a slightly different design all together. And, no, springs from any other Honda won't fit

They share suspension components, but they're not near identical
