There is no way to get the 270R again, is there ? Makes me want to start all over. Stupid me for selling it. Damn.

This is a perfect example of where one of my suggestions for GT5 would be very useful. I think PD should make a feature in GT5 that lets you upload cars onto your pc in the same way that you can with photos in gt4 and then you can trade cars with people and put them back onto the ps2. You see if polyphony had done this with gt4 you'd have my 270R by now lol. There could be like a GTP Confidentials section. :sly:

Sorry to drift off the topic. Great pics everyone of the sexy silvia.

Why would you ever sell it in the first place? It's not as if you could ever run out of garage space, I think the maximum is 1000 cars. I've yet to sell any of my cars, you never know when one of them will come in handy.

And for Chrissake people, use thumbnails if your pictures are oversized. 👎

Is it just me or is the Sileighty under 'other' as opposed to Nissan in the garage?

As far as I know, the Sileighty isn't a Nissan production car.

Wasn't it a car pieced together by some Nissan fanatics? The front of an S15 and the rear of a 200SX? Or thereabouts.

Front of a Silvia and the rear of a 180sx. Not sure if Nissan actually produced them or not.

The most solid theory is that Nissan sold them, but didn't actually build them. A company named Kid's Heart put together a small number of them, and they were sold through a handful of Nissan dealerships in Japan. So they're Nissan cars, sold through Nissan dealerships, but they didn't roll out of a Nissan factory with Sileighty badges on them. I assume that technicality is why they're not listed under Nissan in GT4.

On topic, here's some S14 lovin':

why honda rims on that? Is that a photoshop lowering job? And a sil-eight is the front of an S13 Silvia (where the "sil" come from, and the rear of a 180sx, where the eighty comes from.
 


I'm working on more Silvias at the moment.

theres lots of different front end conversions done in Nissan Dealers workshops, cars like these.

OneVia ---------- Silvia S13 Coupe / w front end of Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback.
Sil-80 ------------ Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback / w front end of Silvia S13 Coupe.
Sil-1480 --------- Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback / w front end of Silvia S14 Coupe.
Sil-1580 --------- Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback / w front end of Silvia S15 Coupe.
Cef-80 ----------- Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback / w front end of Cefiro Sedan.
Sky-80 ----------- Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback / w front end of Skyline R32
Laur-80 ---------- Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback / w front end of Laurel C33 Sedan

Yes, those are some of the body swap combos you might see. But aside from the SilEighty, it should be obvious that none of those were ever 'production cars'.

I also think the name-chopping labels (Sil-1480.5-Via, etc) given to these conversions is kinda goofy. I saw a picture of an S14 with an S13 Silvia front end and S15 tails - it was described as a Sil-14.5, sooo lame... :dopey:

On topic - the 80's:

 
 
silvia decided to take up smoking while in monaco
(for some reason, sports tyres and some LSD settings etc cause my silvia to get extraordinary amounts of smoke. the only things ive touched up is the brightness/contrast)


 
"OneVia ---------- Silvia S13 Coupe / w front end of Silvia S13 180SX Hatchback." - My cousin had one of these... sold as a 240SX coupe... he also brought it here... it's too bad i was never able to buy it off of him... : (


Here's My Lady... 270R around High Speed Ring

P.S.
I also used to own a 1986 S12 200SX with an SR20DE Swap... sold it to one of my friends cause he has the resources to maintain it... i still get to drive it too... if i find an old pic I'll post it.
 


i think that silvia has one of the most menacing looks ive seen on a car......those lights are very angry looking :sly:
 
Now this Girls is bad ass don`t F#?* with her!
she take yuo out on side ways.


 
The front of the Silvia was used due to expensive repair and maintanence costs of the flip up headlight front end of the 180SX and some tuners/ drifters grafted the 2 ends together..i think
 
i hope these pics send guys if it dosent can some1 plz tell me howe to put pics on my pms
