Details
Yes, with the S13 rear cover. GK Tech says an S14 diff housing goes into an S13 subframe if you fit the S13 back cover (four mounting holes rather than the S14's two bushed ones), and recommends solid bushings on the S14 housing. The S14 cover also carries ABS sensor mounts the S13 does not use.
Specs
- rear cover: bushed, 2 mounting holes
