quick question, would rear struts and springs from an s15 fit perfectly into the rear of a 96 s14?

Yes. S15 and S14 share the same suspension, no modifications required.

Sorry for hijacking the thread. But I've some Q's coming up...

'Same suspension' as in shocks/struts/springs and all control arms?

So i can put some coilovers/links/tc rods designed for S15 into a S14?? true?

Oh and I was told the S15 subframe is stiffer than the S14's? Can I put S15 subframe into my S14 without mods?

Thanks

You are correct.

All suspension parts are the same for S14 / S15. You can put anything for S15 to a S14.

S15 is basically the same S14 chassis with a different shell.

S15 has aluminum rear subframe, it's lighter, but I don't know if it's stiffer. You can put it on the S14, but good luck finding one.

The S15 subframe is not aluminium. Only the S15 Spec R subframe is stiffer and it is only because it has an extra brace that the 14/15 spec S does not, you can get the brace and bolt it up though.
