S13 cage for hatch fit a coupe? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

The biggest concern would be the rear crossbars. If they're designed to be straight, the bars won't fit in a coupe because the rear trunk panel is there. In the hatch there is nothing behind the backseat except for a little bracket that covers the strut towers.

Depending on the angle, you may be able to cut through the rear panel, but if the angle is too steep there is no way without removing the rear windshield.

Again, it depends on the design of the cage.
