now i'm quite jealous. i've only got the bushes.
GET STRUT BRACES, Im telling they make a HUGE difference. You wont believe the difference and they alot cheaper than the Koni's, dont even use the damper adjustment on them just set them to softest and leave.

i thought it was the other way around. i thought the silvia had only fixed headlights and a bootlid, and the 180sx had flipup headlights and a glass hatch.
hence i thought the sil80 was named because of the combination of front end of a silvia (fixed headlights) and rear end of 180sx (hatchback). so its SIL from the front of Silvia (and therefore literally from the front of the word), and 80 from the rear of 180 (and literally from the end of the word) = SIL80.
its also why the one-via is named as it is. cos its the popup lights from the one80 and the coupe bootlid from the sil-via.
Yep, that it true for JAP,
US is different, US has coupe with pop up lights. 🙂 granted its 240sx,
Such a slure 🙄
Hey VC can I get your permission to use these pics and post on my upcoming website....
Please!
hmmm...
i noticed that exact same question somewhere else, and when i read it i thought to myself "hmmm..."
dunno man, tell me more about this "upcoming" website of yours! 😉
Well its a 200sx CT based website...
uhmmm ja. I want to have a few DIY articles in there and post news of upcoming events in capetown and surrounding areas, from car shows to dynoruns and drift events.... Just want to start something here in capetown.
And no I won't poach forum members... the forum link on my site will divert the people here... meaning SX owners in CT that visit the site will still come to this forum...
The main aim of the site is to unite the SX owners of capetown. To let them have a local site where they can go to get info on, like above, events and meetings and just plain old cruises...
But ja... just an idea i came up with... thought it might work...
Here is the site address: http://cms.doingitsideways.za.net
Will soon be changing it to s13sx.za.net, the one above is way to long to type in 😂 😂
But ja maybe i'll use doingitsideways.za.net for a drift only site...
Anyway... Sorry if its a bit confusing... Just check out the site and let me know what you think...
K!
as long as you credit the authors. i.e. myself and vlade.

100% correct... And a
Strawberry face is a 180SX with a S15 front end
Not what they call a S14 with a S15 front end
Strawberry face is what the S13 or S14 Silvia is called when the S15 front end is on it. Another term is S13.5 or S14.5
Just as the S15, S14, or S13 with a 180sx front end is known as a "Onevia."
Sil80 is a 180sx with the any of the Silvia front ends (S13, S14A/B or S15) on it.
A really intersting front end conversion is the S14 Silvia on a S13 Silvia Coupe. Know as the S13.4.
If I ever get tired of my pop up lights I may end up doing a S14 front end conversion. But for the time being, I like my sleepy eyed S13 Coupe.
