From groundcontrol you just get the mounting stuff and springs. You then have to pick out your struts seperately. Kev went with 4th gen konis. Rear worked fine. Front required some sort of jimmying. He can give you more details.

adman posted the link to the site, but I recommend calling the number and talking to them. The default spring rates/lengths are 450/7" and 375/8". If you want a slammed look, go for 6" springs all around... but if you do that, you'll have to get stiffer springs (because you don't want the springs to bind).
Like punkdork said, the struts are made for the 4th gen (97). I don't know if you like the KYB's or Koni's, but you will definitely need new struts (unless you want to bounce like a rice boy).
Check out the How-to sticky for modifications on the strut mounts.
