It can be debated for years my friend.

But if I were to give you advice it would follow these guide lines.

Research the "Sil-Eighty", pass your own judgment on it.

Get a silvia front.

Don't argue with what others tell you, Just love what you create and move on with your life and let them go on with theirs.

One Love,

Ghasty

I say go ape s*** with it. Silvia front end, wangan wing, get some coil overs and drop it, get a SR20, some gold meshies and then paint it blue. Boom, you have something that looks like Impact Blue from Initial D.

just ignore the people that wants to argue the whole "sil-40" bs, they're just looking to pick a fight for no good reason lol. Enjoy man, and try to get the OEM fenders and hoods for the Silvia front.

silvia front end, sileighty quarter windows, sileighty center tail light piece, blacktop sr, rhd swap, something about the fuel filler hole, and remove a section of your frame rail.

The Sil eighty Quarter glass has been discontinued as well as the Sil-eighty Rear garnesh Went throught that 3 years ago. But you would need a Black top SR, Silvia Front , GTR style Grill, RHD swap, LSD from a S-13, Manual Seat bealts, Kouki 180sx Seats or a Nice set of bride seats. and call it a Day for a true Sil-80
