Hi there,
A couple of questions:
Will the struts from my 92 parts car fit on my 93?
What age range of car do they fit? SSEi only?
If I am planning on swapping out the whole strut and spring assembly, is a compressor tool needed?

Thanks!
Adam

As long as you swap the entire assembly with out removing the spring, there's no need for a compressor, as it's one unit. I'm not 100% sure if it'll fit, but i'd assume all 92-95 at least were the same, but I could be wrong.

on the fronts, the springs are part of the assembly, on the rear, the springs are seperate, but no compressor tools are needed.
do either cars have CCR? are the suspension rpo codes the same on both cars?

That's a good question. Which RPO code identifies that?

EDIT: Ah, nevermind. Just found this:
