most of the braces wont fit an s14 unless you cut/weld/mod your chassis.
good job they will be fitted to an S15 then (i am buying an S15) i am just courius to be honest. i know they fitted them but never seen where they are fitted... etc
I don't have pics but I can tell you what's different...
The lower arms are strengthened
There is a bar across the floor of the boot at the very back
One between the rear subframe mounts
One under the gearbox at the front between the chassis rails
One each side between the pillars and the roof above the seatbelt mounting points
One each side behind the rear bench in the spare wheel well
One each side under the carpet below the rear bench to the inner quarters
That's all I can remember, the best and only real way to get pics is if someone has stripped the interior out as most hide behind the trim/headlining/carpets. Hope this helps
I have a pic at home of some of the interior ones, will upload when I get a chance.

The boot brace is obvious, the rest is either covered by trim or under the car, like Dean said.
The Spec R only came with the bracing too, not the Spec S.
If I remember rightly Phil from drift works documented all the extra braces when he was stripping out their s15. Can't search for the thread right now as I'm on my phone.
the tension rod brackets are also different, they are strengthened and have a plate that bolts between them that runs along the radiator support panel.
the tension rods are differnet to s14 ones in the fact they have a kink in them.
im doing a bare shell rebuild on my s15 spec R and have just started a thread over on DW about it.id do one on here but am not a member.
balls, just realised the one I had was of Polo's G35 shell.
