4WD Silvia ???

[AndyMac]

How many Sileighties are there in Australia ? Aren't worth around the same as a R32 GTR ?

[NO_RSPECT]

Love it.

i wanted to stick the s15 front on my s14 but the kit is fibreglass all the way and then i was thinking it might be dodgy and not fit right cos they are coming from the US. Its called strawberry face cos apparently japanese for strawberry is ICHIGO which is also simile to the word for 15 or some crap. so they call it strawberry face.

still thinking about it though, would make a nice showcar.

i dunno about the 4wd silvia....but i know some guyin melb thats building a 4WD,IRS,13B powered Datto ute!

[ex-static]

I think funky money used to have a strawberry faced sil80

"strawberry" in japanese means the same as "S 1 5" - hence strawberry face kit.

Grouse !!!

[meggala]

the cefiro came in 4wd might be an interesteing base for one

I prefer the s14 front on a 180 to the s15

btw thanks nugget for posting those pics of the black sil 80 i have a black 180 commig and i'm so tempted

Prank has a Black Sil80 now he he ...... Can't wait to see it....

What's a cefiro - (how do you pronounce >>>> see fire oh?????)

I thought I knew a little about nissans and then another one springs up......he he

[PranK]

cefiro is an RB powered 4 door built on the silvia chassis (i think) with S13 silvia front lights.... very cool, doooorifto stylez!

[B-Man]

Sounds like a mongrel nissan !! he he

bow down b4 my s15/s13 sil80

Well if u get one from bomex japan (like I did) then u're guranteed a perfect fit, coz as it sez on the box its manufactured for a 180sx, they even have different kits for different year 180s

Actually i tell a lie, the strawberry face kit that I got wasn't off Bomex Japan, but it was off a wreck of a 180 (same yr as mine 1989) that was invoved ina side on collision. But the guy who drove that car apparently got it from Bomex Japan.

Dunno bout the US versions they might be bodgy copies.

Its called the ICHIGO kit and yes it means both strawberry and S-fifteen.

If u want to make it a showcar, my cuz entered it into autosalon under his name with sum club and he ended up comin home with an award (not a trophy mind you) for "best hybrid" from one of the sponsors... he now has it hanging off his wall and refuses to give it to me, even tho he won it off my car... the bastardo.

This was long b4 it was trendy to have a 180sx tho, so dunno if anyone paid attention to it. A lil piece (the rear quarter) of it was in one of the pics in hot4s lol

[BelGarion]

my friend used to have a 1580sx (strawberry face 180)

he traded it but its back on the road on the goldcoast, saw it at bwcp on sat night last week,

I fink you may find the Cefiro is based on the R32 Skyline platform... same running gear, 4 doors and mainly autos, though you do find the odd manual...

I wanted one for a while... still considering one

Cheers
