I probably took it from the bottom of the shock to be honest. Not sure how much shorter a coilover shock is, but the S12 one is a very similar length to the S13 one anyway

Seems a good idea, there are a lot of shocks around that are in the same style.

When I fit my LSD I will remove a coilover and see what its like without the spring etc.
