Default koni setup

i was lookin at this: http://www.weaksauceparts.com/store/home.php?cat=1812

i got a 97 civic and i wanted to get the koni yellow but i notice that there is two kinds of them the sp3 and the "adjustable" will anyone one of these two work with my ground control coilovers?

is the sp3 allowing to drop your car lower? whats the difference between the two?

Yes, if you have Koni Sport specific GC sleeves.

Nope.

The ones labelled SP3 look to be the Neuspeed versions of the shocks, which means that they have additional circlip grooves in between the existing 3 (5 total) and a droop limiter.

They offer no real advantage with GC sleeves (unless you really need that additional droop limiting), and the regular Koni Sports are cheaper.
