KYB struts, Comparison to coilovers + part number query Options

[S8S8]

After getting my engine conversion finished the next project is suspension.

I was about to order the BC Racing coilovers, but at the last minute I'm thinking the KYB GR2s may provide better value for money since I already have decent springs. The BC coilovers will cost me $1,300 shipped and the KYBs will cost me just over $400 shipped.

Is the additional $900 worth it? I will be using the car for a few track days, but I don't want to over-spend on a 15+ year old car. I don't care about the "look at me" factor of coilovers, I just want the best bang for my buck.

So I'm leaning towards the KYBs unless I can be convinced otherwise, but I have a question about part numbers. There are two kits I've been able to find on ebay, which the following part numbers:

Package 1:

2 front 334378-334379 complete struts, 2 rear 334125-334126 complete struts

Package 2:

2 front 365092 cartridge shocks, 2 rear 334125-334126 complete struts

Regarding the front end part numbers, is the only difference that package 2 only has the cartridges and not the complete strut assembly? The thing that is confusing me is that the KYB catalogue lists the part number from package 1 as suiting 1995-1999 (with sealed struts) and package 2 suiting 1994-1999 (with rebuildable struts).

Mine is a 1994, but can I still use the complete struts from package 1? I thought all 6th gens with Macpherson strut front suspension were the same? Surely the 1994 cars are no different to the 1995 onwards cars?

I'm sure it will be fine, but I'd like to be 100% sure as I don't want to have to ship them back to the US again for replacement!

Thanks
Shane.
