There is a guy who has built a mad SR powered 12 in Holland or somewhere. He used an S13 rear subframe.

Look for posts with Race Silvia in them and you should be able to get hold of him. Its not just a nuts and bolts job though, lots of welding and fabrication involved.

the track width of the s13 is about 2inchs wider than the s12. you will need wide archs in the rear to stop the quarter panels chewing through your tires. adds more expense to the conversion but dont let me be the one to put you off as i am currently modifying an s14 rear subframe to fit an s12
