I wouldn't expect any shocks, no matter what brand, to last you 4-5 years.

Iirc some of the Z-s models had different rear spring setups ("pig tail springs") - try http://www.zetecs.com for more info :aviator:

On 08/98 the lower rear shock mouting points were changed from "fork type" to "eye type" so if the mk4 u r getting is prior to this date theres no way you can use the same rear suspension setup.
