Cant say I'm really a fan myself but these shots are simply beautiful and the car does look pretty stunning especially in that colour. I think its only an S14 though which is kinda :gren: What do you guys reckon of it?

Yep, S14 with the S15 "Strawberry Face" (or whatever they call it now) conversion kit. Doesn't look bad.
My personal favourite is the Onevia... S13 Silvia with a 180SX flip-headlight front. Looks damn good.

Not too shabby, I prefer the S14's to the S15's :P
The Silvias used on a few of the BMI touge battles are nice (MINE's?), I'd probably prefer a Skyline though. Quote:

I read "Sylvia" and "sexy" and I thought there were going to be other kinds of pics in here
She's in town for Sexpo too.

S15s are pretty quick stock too, 0-100 in 6-6.5 secs though it could be quicker seeing as its got 184kW and 1400kg kurb weight.

I owned an S15 and it was a sensational car, which incidentally handed out some education to many a Blue Oval owner. Sadly you'll find a HELL of a lot of closed minds on this forum, probably 9,950 of the 10,000+ members I'd say.

It looks sexy until you see the rear. I can't stand S13s, especially "Sileightys!" (Silvia bum, 180 front like Steffo posted)

Probably one of the best Silvia pics of seen. I like the S14 with S15 front conversion Very nice indeed. I'm also a fan of Sil80's too. One of the best drift cars too!

I think they look great when they're a very clean example like the first post. It's when they start hanging unneccessary plastic off them or putting stickers all over them that the ugly meter goes off the charts.

I almost went for an S15 instead of my Type R. Nice looking car with a lot of potential - way too tempting to spend money on turbos.

The Silvias are pretty cool, I'd own one, but if Ford made anything like it, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. Pity Ford don't make anything even remotely like it :(

I'm a big fan of silvias and 180's, but not the mix breeds. S15 are one of the best looking, affordable rides on the road. I want one!!

yeh those S15's arent bad looking, certainly drift well and go well with a few mods.. sposed to be awesome over steerers = fun as well. hehe.. although i think i'd take an R32/33 GTR over one anyday |

Handy to keep a few in the glovebox : |
