Sil-eightys are NOT a different chassis code. A combination of 180-sx with any Silvia is NOT a Sil-80. Nissan made the Sil-80 as a limited production car, and just used fixed headlights. Seach ALL over the internet, and you won't find a s13.5 called a sil-80.

Read!The combination Sil-80 means Silvia-180sx. Meanin the front of a Silvia s13, and the body and engine of a 180sx.

wtf are you talking about? who said it was a special chassis code? its an aftermarket body mod, nothing more. it was NEVER made by nissan, EVER. not a single 180sx left a nissan factory with silvia lights.

who said it meant something other than Silvia-180sx?

Yes it is. It left the production line in Japan for a limited amount of Sil-80's to be produced.

Arrrghh!!.....too....much....educational....things. man this is confusin. even though nissan may have produced them at one time or another, i will still make the simple mistake from time to time of callin the s15 front end on a 180 a sil-80. Freakin force of habit for the fact that i know that the s15 is a silvia and its on a 180 body. oh well.

OMG you guys are killing me, Quit being so anal, dudes right 180sx rear and any Silvia front end is a Sil80. Yes most Sil80's are 180sx with s13 front clip but the name, Sil(via)(1)80 can mean any of the silvia clips. Get over it!!!! I know you like to have all the details , but it really doesn't matter. It's still bad a$$ and that's all that matters!!

sileighty's exist my friend...1500 were made not 500 u are mis-informed......and nissan did manufacture them on a limited basis for 1 year only.....it was sort of a promotional type thing b/c of the origonal popularity of the 180sx and the silvia s13 in japan....the chassis code was RPS13-?? not sure after the ?? i have to check my History of nissan book and see what it says i will try and post it later...u should pick the book and up and straighten your facts out not to sound like an @$$ or anything

dude I really hope your not talking to me! I respect the fact that SilviaS14 want to know all the facts about the car, just like you......I was just happy to see one, espically since I live in a small town and saw it in my town not at some show or a shop. Like I said it's Bad A$$ and I was proud to see something that nice in my hometown.:rockon

I believe the factory made sil-80's had around 230-240 hp. And real sil-80's are like commodities over there. If you were lucky enough to find one at a auction over there they usually go for the same price as a new r-34. "may the great r34 rip"

I believe the Sil-80s kept the same 205hp as the other S13s.

we do have lives. There was just misunderstanding. Who the hell cares? Then why did you even REPLY to this thread in the beginning. If you don't like the content, arguments, comments, and opinions on this thread, then don't finish reading it. Leave it alone. You obviously care enough to post that remark.
