Actually the bricks came on s13's with the CA18DET.

Triple projectors came on the S13 K's, Club K's, and Diamond K's trim level.

Duals were on Q's and J's.

if its a fully loaded coupe (meaning power windows, power door locks, and sunroof) with a turbocharged SR20DET... (J's and Q's S13's were not turbocharged...SR20DE) and triple projector headlights, it would be considered a S13 K's, S13 Club K's or S13 Diamond K's. heres some pics of the emblems. The S13's and S14's have trim levels or "grades" related to playing cards, J's for Jack, Q's for Queens, and K's for Kings. Same with the Clubs and Diamonds.

this is the standard K's emblem.

This is the Club K's emblem.

And this is the Diamond K's emblem.

Yeah bricks are my second favorite Silvia headlights.Beyond S14a, beyond S15.

The only ones that look better are these babies.

If i cant find a set of Bricks by my next birthday. Im going clear.

what makes it K's, club K's, or diamond K's??? im trying to build a Silvia clone and i really want it to be right down to every little detail and with that being said i guess im going to have to sell my dual projectors and get some triple projectors cause my car is fully loaded and im dropping in a sr20det in the near future. just need to know the difference in the different K's. also IMO dual projector look the best thats why i bought the duals but i can go with triples to have the car right.

wikipedia doesn't have it all. I did more research. The diamon k's is ca18det and the club k's is sr20det and of course both are fully loaded. Apparently The a's did have a 5 speed and was set up like a j's as far as no power windows and all that, but it was just sr20de and had optional lsd.

what makes you think i havent read that already, have you read it? its so vague in the description of the K's, i want exact details and differences. so if you know then tell me bro. what i really need is like an old brochure on the Silvias so i can see the exact options that were offered so i can have my car right down to the smallest detail.
