All S13 Suspension arms in S14? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hey guys I'm build a S14 shell right now and my original plan was to swap over everything from my S13 over to my S14 to get it going.
I know the major differences between the two like the diff rear housing being different and the tension rods in the s14 being slightly longer. However I have cut and shortened S13 knuckles that are sitting on S14 Extended lower control arms with VooDoo 13 adjustable tension rods. Everything in the rear is all stock.
Would I be able to swap over all of my arms into the s14 along with my knuckles and spindles?

Any major differences that you guys are aware of other than what I already stated?

The mounting points on the RLCA are narrower on s13 vs s14.

The toe arm mounting area is narrower on s13 vs s14.

You can bootyfab it with a bunch of washers to take up the slack, but it's not elegant.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll go ahead and grab some s14 RLCA's.
