suspension question

Is it true that shocks/springs are the same from 88-95? Cuz I wanna sell this shit I have and my buddy said to sell it to his brother who has a 95 civic because it still fits???? anyone?

I'm no expert on suspension, but I think the big deal here is the spring rate. Find out the recommended spring rate from the manufacturer for the car you want to put them on, and make sure it's the same as the rate for the springs you have.
If the rate is off, they'll perform poorly.
Anybody who knows anything about this, feel free to correct me.
