the 02-04 are the same(stiffer bushings)....the 05-06 type-s will not work, the hole for the lower balljoint is larger. 05-06 type-s got type-r sized lower balljoints.

The Type-R aluminum LCA's are longer but not the USDM ones.

just compare part numbers...if the part numbers are different, the parts are different.
