That white one is also nice. I love them.....They do have a bit of a trueno look about them and they're ridiculously cheap!! I'm really surprised you don't see as many kicking about. They seem so bargainous!!

Hey, nice. Interesting look you've gone for there. Different and good with it too I say. I had one. I paid £65 for it, fitted a recon turbo, some new tyres, upped the boost, colder plugs, heavier spring in the blow-off valve and one of the cheapest and best mods is negative camber and increased castor by elongating the strut top mount holes. It reduced the standard understeer brilliantly! I also improved the driving position for lanky me by extending the steering wheel and lowering the clutch and brake pedals. I made a larger accelerator pedal pad to help heel and toe I had a lot of fun cheap trackdaying! Ferg  I nicked the engine and scrapped it, the slag! |

The Yellow and White one is the Sillhouette Racer, and is the GOD of all Silvia's. It is sat in a museum in Japan I remember reading somewhere.

Sounds like you had lots of fun with your mods, I've had the same cheap as chips to buy and mod.
