Caribbean Silvia

by **islandsilvia** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 6:42 am

Hello everyone,

I have been browing this forum for years. I love the amount of information I can get here and I said let me post up my old ride and my present ride.

I am 26 and live in Antigua W.I, which is in the caribbean for those of you who don't know.

Hope you enjoy. The black one was my first ride.

And now for the present ride

The car market here is Japanese. We also import quite a few LHD cars and euro models too.

You know what's funny. we only have a handful of Nissan's here. everyone else seems to only like the toyota, honda and recently the mitsu and subie brand.

No S13 and we only have white S15

by **Scuffed_ChukiCoupe** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 9:28 am

NICE, sometimes i debate moving to greneda where my mom and dad were born and grew up, because the u.s is starting to suck for me, and id rather be in the presence of evo 3's and gti-r's and people who actually care about one another

No problem. Once I get more time.

That will not be a problem since the dude spun a bearing 2 months after i sold it to him.

And it had FMIC, Tein lowering springs, FPR, Japanese short shifter, 3" exhaust from teh turbo elbow back, Greddy type S.

The only thing I got left is my power FC and commander tht I will be selling soon. It's for the redtop 180sx.

Anyone down there got a red top SR20DET and needs a Power FC and commander to buy? I got it here just chilling not doing anything.

And nice to see other caribbean people on here.

tHANKS, wHEN I got the car it was looking pretty rough. So I gave it a nice make over.

Good things to come with the S14.

Trust me. I am. I am getting ready to give this one a nice spray job. I am using the same red but I got a little variation to it. And certain things I need done.

Unfortunately I'm the only person with a USDM 240SX with an engine swap. There's only one 200SX (euro version to 180SX) with a CA18DET around and it is own by an elder person. There is a front clip with a SR20DET red top at a used car/spares importer here and he's keeping it for himself so I'll ask if he needs one. How much are you looking to sell it for?

by **Scuffed_ChukiCoupe** » Sat Jul 25, 2009 7:31 pm

you got your usdm 240 down there or it was importeD?

by **rb28z2** » Sun Jul 26, 2009 5:03 pm

Do you have different rear fenders on the s13? For some reason your car looks slightly smaller than most s13s. The fenders seem to stick out more or something. Im not sure but all i know is i want mine to be setup like that.

by **nismo592** » Tue Jul 28, 2009 9:24 am

It was imported in 1990 brand new by my former boss and i bought it from him in 2004.

They are the factory S13 fenders as far as I know but, I found mine did look a little funny. But I measured them against another S13 that came with the CA18DET and mine are bigger. I think it;s just the shape of the rims back there. They are 17x8.0 +30 running 235/40/17 tires. I hope this helps.

I am asking for $700 usd for the fc and commander.

Thanks man. I was wondering why they looked a little wider than most. The entire car looks smaller than most s13's for some reason. Either way its a really nice s13.

Nice, nice, nice. I guess RHD is everywhere.

by **cyberchub87** » Fri Jul 31, 2009 9:27 am

Duuuude, loving the s14 and the s13 as well man.

I'm new to the site and also from Antigua (islandsilvia, you should know who this is by now lol)

I've been wanting to buy an s13 for awhile now, just waiting until my current ride gets sold.

This is my boy Nick here. He wants to get a 180SX and alot of people here have been telling him that the 180SX and Silvia's are crap. And this is coming from people who have never even owned a Nissan to begin with. So he wants some feedback about the cars.

Anyone care to go first????

I really like those wheels on that car.... hmm...

Very nice car BTW!

Please say hello to the guy below for me! I owe him a bottle of Rum.
