I know that a R32 has a similar frame to a S13 but I was wondering will R32 Coils/Struts fit on a S13? I searched with no results. A buddy has some R32 Coils I would like to pick up but only if they fit? Go figure?

Same as Z32, fronts will not work at all, rears will work with fork style mount uprights.

BACK FROM THE DEAD.

No way to make them work? I have a hella deal on some Tein Flex's for $500 Brand New from a buddy.3

Also, are all R32 Rear Coils Fork type? I found a set that says they are Looped instead? Just curious, I am wanting to buy the uprights from a Z32 too.

Fronts won't work at all, they're too different, and come from a different kind of suspension.

I dunno about rears, but they might mess up the balance of the car.

Rears are mixed, BNR models are forked, regular R models are not.

Ok, last question, then I will delete this shithole excuse of a thread.

There is no way to change mount plate on a coil is there? Meaning I can swap my S13 mount plate on the R32 and make it bolt? Also the rears will bolt up correct? Thanks.
