Type R Struts on a 2.0

[MixxyMatosis]

Hi there guys. I have a 2001 6th gen on OE shocks and springs and she failed an MOT the other day due to a leaky shock. I've found a full set of type R struts on ebay for a 6th gen but my question is will they be a direct fit to a 2.0 SE? It'd be nice having a slightly lover ride height too but if they're going to involve hassle I shan't bother.

Thanks in advance.

I've just had a quick look and they seem to be the same fitment, I was using the service manual for my suspension yesterday and that didn't mention any difference for the ATR either, so I'd be inclined to say the two are interchangeable. Perhaps someone with a bit more experience could confirm this?

Well thats a pretty good sign. Thanks very much. If anyone else can shed some light it'd be much appreciated.

Also having trouble getting an avatar to work. I've used a direct link from photobucket but its showing as a broken link as you can see. Any suggestions?

I can confirm that they do just bolt right on. Happy days
