Hi all this is my first post on this forum this is my mota 1987 Nissan Silvia turbo s12      I bought it about 3 years ago it had 13995 miles on it, it was mint, The first owner died 1990 and his family just put the car in the garage until 2002 when one of the family members used it for 12 months. i bought it in 2003 the car was completely standard at this point. i used the car for 12 months before i got board of it being standard mods front mount intercooler boost increase pop off valve sealed SS exhaust cone filter boost gauge timing set to 17.5deg 17" wheels lowed 35mm i found out about this site from a guy who jump started my car for me at tesco petrol station (batt was dead it haddent been out for a good few weeks) |

Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

No! I saw that and went whaaaaaaaaaat?! but forgot to comment!. Very odd indeed! Maybe it's one for one of David's Japanese contacts? Unless it's a market specific homologation special?

Very nice. I do like these.

Not for much longer though as mine is on ebay at the minute.

I recall you got the 1.8 8v turbo, and the 2.0 16v n/a, but surprisingly, the 2.0 was the quicker car (on paper anyway). My friend had a string of 1.8's but only one 2.0. Seem to remember they were pretty rare. I always wanted one but never got one :-(
Great car! Looking forward to seeing more pics in the future!

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts |
