The wagon comes with beefier springs in the rear to compensate for the added weight.
Coilovers made for the sedan will fit on a wagon, but it is suggested that you get coilovers designed for the wagon.

wagon is considered a GGA for the 02-03 body style. for the 04 it should be GGA-C
for coilovers as stated it should physically fit but the rear suspension springs will be beefier if you buy wagon suspension vs sedan suspension.

Only problem I know of using sedan parts on a wagon is the camber issues. You probably have enough adjustment in coilovers to cancel that out but if you want a lot of negative camber for autocross or something, you might want to keep that in mind. I just always hear of people wanting more negative camber. But a lot of those comments are from people with spring/shock combos so the case may be different with coilovers. (camber plate+camber bolt adjustment vs. only camber bolt for spring/shock)
