Yay! Another bandwagoner.... You have a 240sx, not a sil80, 180sx, or Silvia... That's my opinion.

Call it a sil40 and people might leave you alone. Looks ok.. get better pictures. Oh and good luck finding Sileighty quarter glass.. they only made 500 of them. In Japan. 11 years ago.

thank you sir...I get tired of selling it, well played...

I own a Silvia...

Sil80s are the most rare of all the S-chassis cars...if you had one I would be envious...but you dont, so Im not

why put the KPH cluster in a LHD 240.

do the firewall swap, get a blacktop SR and brick headlights. paint it all clean and youll be straight.
