Not what I would consider work, I installed a R32 Skyline exhaust on a S13 in about 25 minutes. Just needed to relocate some hangers.

WD...it's MUCH different on an S13 vs S14.

S14 is longer by ~3", exhaust hangers on the muffler are quite different, and the bends are not exact.

Something like a stock exhaust takes a TON of work...something straighter like a GT Spec will still require cutting/welding, but will be closer.

Trust me...I put my old GReddy MX from my S14 onto my S13...took an afternoon of cutting/grinding/welding and some spare tubing to make it work.

Hey, I said it could be done...I didn't say it was easy...lol. I have a sawzall and a chop saw for modifications and I have a portable Mig Welder. So it's fairly easy for me.

I'm just in one of those moods I guess.

i don't know... if it only takes an afternoon to modify it to make it fit i'd call that an easy job... harder jobs take days to finish.
