s14 coilovers on s13 w/ skyline alluminum knuckles?

Hey guys I'm building a track silvia and I figured a way to cut down a bit of weight is using s14 coilovers (as the fronts fit already) and rears and fitting them up to skyline alluminum knuckles w/ the tapered steel ball ball joints. I am just wondering if this will work. I know I would need to use the lower control arms from the skyline but would this even work? I assume there would not be much difference between heights of the s13 to s14 by switching over rears or am I wrong?

what you need to do is search. its been covered already. Use z32 rear knuckes (alum) and correct tapered balljoint (IIRC Q-45 has what u need). then u need a lower mount. you can eithor get z-32 rear coils, with s-13 upper mounts. OR get/mondify lower mount on coil-over to fit knuckle.
