Default FS: Koni sport shocks w/stock springs

Koni sport (yellows) with stock springs (from '00 car) and perches already assembled. Only used about 9 months. Single adjustable for rebound, two ride height positions (stock and about 3/4" drop). No need for a spring compressor as they are full assemblies.

$300 located in San Jose. PM if interested.

I want to buy the shocks, but I have an '02. Would I be breaking the rules if I had 00 springs?

edit: I assumed that everyone knew I was talking about autocross (BS).

Technically yes, since '02 spring rates are a little different.

One more question about the shocks...

On concrete during a turn the s2000 lifts the inner rear wheel when using hoosiers. I know many people have gotten aftermarket shocks to avoid that. Do the koni's perform better than stock in this scenario?

I think the Konis are better than the stock units because they are a little "easier" to drive at the limit, and offer some adjustability (you can bias rebound front to rear). The largest help to keeping the inside rear on the ground is a bigger front swaybar, though higher dollar shocks with their better body control and adjustable nitrogen pressure also help.
