Well a quick search and the C's have the same design rear shocks. Unsure if the nova coilovers will fit. Its all down to the space at the top lol

I think he means the physical space where the coilover sits. Novas require a little fettling.

I have had a bad experience with one, that's all.

If you have this car, jack it up, off with the wheel and measure from strut to inner arch then add the radius of the strut to work out available room. With that info and the diameter of the springs on the coilovers, you should be able to determine if it's a straight fit, or if work is required.
