ECR33 Rear Coilovers on an S14...? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I've tried searching.... i took a look at them at a local shop they look similar and look like they can fit but im not sure... so does any here know if the ECR33 (not GTR) rears will fit the s14?

Yes. They're the correct length and have the same ball socket on the end, not a fork like the BNR33.

The only thing to look out for is that since the R33 is alot heavier than the S14, the ride might be shitty.

But since were in the topic, how about the front Russ on an R33?

Nope. R33 fronts are the same design as the Z32, ball socket lower mount on a short stroke shock, not a strut like the S chassis. 2bolt top mount.

Yes you can. However the rear shocks are a good amount longer than the Z32 ones. So most likely you'll have to slam the hell out of the rear and be close to maxing it out if not max it out. It's been done.

I *think* the BNR32s are the right length in the rear, but don't quote me. The BNR33s are too long for sure.
