Will 1994 Clubman Bilstein shocks and springs fit directly to 2004 NB?

I'd be more concerned about fitting 28 year old parts, especially shocks.

Been a long time since I looked at this and I was looking at doing the other way round back when I had an NA, but from memory the NA assembly is shorter with less suspension travel. They will fit, maybe drop the car roughly half inch, but not sure how compromised handling and/or comfort would be compromised. An NB top hat and bump stop conversation would improve it.
