wrong, front camber kit is different, end links are different, lower control arms are different, and the subframe piece is different. the coil overs can be used but weren't really designed for the car.

and to the OP, here's an idea, why not use eg suspension on an eg, ek suspension on an ek, and ef suspension on an ef? I know, I know, seems a strange concept using parts that were made for the car, but you never know, it might work.

from the ek to eg, most everything will swap over. the coilovers will work, you just need to swap out the drop forks and make sure you use the eg forks on the eg and the ek forks on the ek. also the front and rear camber kit should be direct bolt on, as well as the lower control arms. rear subframe will not be a bolt on though and i believe the end links are different.
