R32 shocks bolt up to S13s, BNR32 shocks will if you use Z32 uprights.
Same with R33 and S14.

And that's shocks, not struts. I figured if I didn't edit that I'd get a few people crying about the fronts not bolting up right.

As I just posted, BNR32/R32/Z32=S13.
BNR33/R33=S14.

Rear ONLY.

Like ^He^ said.. Rears only. Skylines are so cool, they don't have struts in front.. Double control arm, if I'm not mistaken. :blah:

don't use the rear skyline shocks on the rear of a silvia, it won't sit right. what you need is the front shocks off of a rwd r32 skyline (gts, gtst, gte), and then you must swap over the s13 tophat to the skyline struts so it will bolt in properly. with stock springs, ur car will be slammed and quite stiffer. with lowered springs, the car will be sacked on its A$$! for the fronts, you must use s13/s14/c33/a31/y33 stuff.

also, all of the rear arms from skyline will work for the rear of silvia.
