They should fit...I know that 2g AWD springs fit on a 2g FWD. The only difference being that the 2G AWD springs are usually harder.

They might fit but they arent supposed to so I wouldnt try. AWD's have a little bit different weight distribution and shit, Its just not something I would fiddle fuck around with.

To reiterate, it can be done, but it might suck. On the 2gs, part of the problem is also that the spring perch heights are different. I ran NT FWD springs on an AWD for a while and it sucked. Ride height came out way too low and the car was way too under-sprung.

It's just that it's pretty hard to find good springs for the FWD dsm's.
And the AWD you find many. So yea. Well i guess i will just have to look
harder to find some.
