The History of Silvia in pictures.

[S14 Wannabe]

Well awhile back I got an idea from http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....36367 to make something easier to look at and show pictures of the history of Silvia. Well here it is. I have posted this in other forums. I just had the time to make this yesterday. Enjoy!

The S110 is born in 1979-1983. The year I was born and the year the turbo is born in the car.MotorInteriorDatsun RallySeats

The S12 was first time the coupe and a hatchback was introduced in 1983-1987. Still keeping the turbo and still beatiful. Road MonsterInteriorDOHC TurboNot much changed in the interior

The dawn of a new era began for our beloved Silvia with the S13 born in 1988-1992. Pignose was born as well as 180sx (kept till 1998), convertible, and coupes.On the common streetsInterior changedGoSome of you might recognized this

S14's were born 1993-1998 along with different options Q's, J's, K's and 180sx type R.Dorifto K'sInteriorQ's Aero Sport watching a sunsetSome of you might recongnize this engine too...

The S15 is the last of a dying breed. Born only for a brief period, 1999-2002, it became the most beautiful of all. With ranging options Spec R to the N/A Varietta.S15The lightning bolt was bornOn the moveSimple yet elegant and extremly functional

On a personal note, I hope Nissan brings her back.

Tag and a quick question: Are those the full res pics? I mean is there a site with those shots at a higher resolution? The reason I ask is because I work at a large scale digital graphics company and I have access to all sorts of ridiculously godly printers that can make those into room-decorating posters for my house.

Yes those are the full res pics. That would be absolutely awesome for you to make posters out of these and sell them to the board.

Lemme see what kinda quality Photshop can blow those up to and see how they print out. If it goes well, I'll look into to that. I already have an 18x24 poster on my door. You don't have it up here but it's the pretty common yellow S1, mid-drift with a black background. *Squeege*

That is great info, that needs to be stickied and/or faq'ed

[Touchdown038]

Wow, don't I feel more enlightened about the beautiful Silvia!

[KRUZNBY]

Nice find. I just downloaded their screensaver too! Does anyone know where I can find any TV commercials or video from reviews of the Silvia or 240's?

[shane bigler]

1999-2000? I thought they were still being produced in Japan?

[Repo Man]

Awesome! Thanks for posting that.

I always wondered what model that me, Black240 and yeswepromise laid our eyes on at the Z Car Nationals, I wasn't expecting it be one of the first ever Silvias....

Yeah... sorry guys 02 is right. I read the site wrong. I thought it was off when I was typing it in because I remember seeing a Best Motoring Video of a 2002 S15. Can a Mod or a Admin fix the year please?

BuudQeizErr - I am jealous that you got to see one of the first Silvia's. What a great flashback that must have been.

Comming soon : The history of Skyline in Skyline General Chat section. Please come and see this one too.

[I am Technoman]

I would love to have a posters !:ylsuper

[offtheline]

Thanks for that post. The older silvias are awesome.

And... for some reason I think the interior of the S15 is possibly one of the best designed ****pits Ive ever seen. It looks soo amazing. That picture just shows its simplicity with style. Oh how I wish I could drive one.

EDIT:: Thats really funny I wasnt swearing at all, but it blocked out part of my legitimate word. :pface

[Sil40_Mayhem]
