Can s13 springs be used on Z32 struts in the rear? I understand the strut mounts are different, but I was wondering if I could simply swap my S13 springs over to the Z32 strut, or if there was a significant problem with doing this?

I looked on the Tein website and there are 2 different p\n's, so I am assuming the answer is going to be "No" and that I have to use Z32 springs, but just thought I'd ask

Z32 and S13 shocks are identical save for the lower mount design. S13 uses the ball type, Z32 uses a fork type. The S13 springs and all hardware can be swapped right over to the Z32 shock. credit: projectRDM
