Evo 5 Coilovers to Evo 8

My right rear coilover got damaged during a track incident a few months back. Bent thread and top part so I'm not sure it could be rebuilt at this point. Car's at the body shop now and while at it I'm collecting the parts I need to make it run well again. I was using Ohlins DFV on it. A brand new rear pair replacement costs way too much for me at the moment. Just saw a local ad (photos attached) selling a pair of used EVO5 Ohlins coilovers (not sure yet if DFV, but I think all Ohlins are DFV–not sure abt this). I've read in forums that CT9A rear coilovers bolt right up the CP9A chassis. Used Ohlins coilovers don't really pop up so often so if this is a good replacement, I'll be snatching it right up.

Could you advice me on these? Thanks.

Not sure there about those 2 worked rear coilovers.

Consider starting fresh w/a complete new set?

Might be less expensive in the long run & the performance advantage of a new set matched to your car / driving style might be the way to go?
