Details
Unclear; forum posts disagree. One post says S14 fronts fit an S13 that already runs S14 front spindles, the only difference being the lower bolt holes. Another says S14 fronts are longer with larger holes for the hub carrier. A third thread on this question now returns 404. Buy S13-specific fronts unless the knuckles are S14.

- lower bolt: 14 mm (forum report)
