Default Gs argument ?

At work - my friend has a gs400 I have a gs300

He claims to have purchased a set of gs300 lowering springs and that they didn't fit - correct me if I'm wrong but don't gs400 springs fit on a 300 and 300 fit a 400 ? Maybe have more of a drop due to the bigger engine n diff spring rate but I'm sure they do fit !

60$ on the line here lol help me out cl

they are the same just the 400 spring rate is different to compensate for the heavier engine up front.
