Stupid question here
Would I be able to use coilovers designed for an s13 or do they have to be car specific?

Front's you might be able to adapt, the rears I'm thinking would be a long way out. We talking IRS (SA63, RA65, MA61, etc.) or RA60 with live axle? Why not use stuff that fits; presumably because you want to buy a 2nd hand set of stuff from an importer?

ra65
i was actualy planing on geting new parts but if a good set of 2nd hand items pop up i'd get them. i was thinking that because s13 is around the same weight and has the same stud pattern some parts might be interchangeable. If that were true it would be great because theres so many s13 designed coilovers available.

Just remember that S13 and RA65 rear suspension is completely different  The stud pattern is the least of your worries...

methinks i'll take the "cheap basturds" approach of just indpendant shockers and springs rather than a coilover. Thanks for your help
