H&R SPort springs for 4th and 5th gen Preludes. Are they universal??

Hey guys, I have a set of 5th Gen H&R Sport springs. I have a 4th Gen. I was wondering why on the H&R site....they have different part numbers for both generation Preludes.

The 4th gen part number is 29879 and the part number for the 5th gens is 29879-2. What does that mean and can I use 5th gen springs on my 4th gen??

Yes its just a marketing thing, I have the so called "5th Gens" on my 4th Gen.

If you buy the 5th gen springs, the P/n on the spring is 29879.
If you buy the 4th gen springs, the P/n on the spring is 29879.

Read the NTPOG review, they disagree...

I was wondering the drop rate on the H&R Sport Lines. I have a set sitting in my closet. They claim 1.9, 1.6 I believe, but what is the drop like for most of you guys running this set up?
