Details
Reported to fit with work. S13 and S14 front coilovers differ mainly in the lower bolt holes (about 2 mm), and owners run S13 fronts on S14 knuckles with collars on the bolts or by drilling, which one poster calls less safe. S14 fronts are also longer. Forum-only, one thread now 404.
Specs
- lower bolt: 12 mm (forum report)
