everything should switch over fine. If the HF is your warrior beast of a car, the Si setup is better than the HF and switching over won't be a bad thing. The shocks and all that should be the same. If both cars are stock, don't bother swapping it all over.

Oh and if you decide to do the swap make sure you swap axles too, diff spline count on the hubs i do believe. This info in given provided that the stuff is stock on both cars.
