Differences

[RedlineRacer]

I own a Sentra right now and I love the Nissan family. But I do not know much about the Nissan Family. I hope to soon sell my Sentra and buy a 240. If i do, i plan to convert it to a Silvia. What are the main differences between the 240 and the and the Silvia, besides an engine swap?

I love the smell of SEARCH (http://www.zilvia.net/f/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?act=Search;CODE=00;f=2) in the morning.


The short of it, their are different differences between the different chassis codes, (S13 and S14) and different differences between the different evolutions in both of those chassis'.  It also depends how technical you want to get with the changes.  It's been done to death, so read the archives, it's all in there.

Mechanically, the Silvia K's (S13 and S14) used larger brakes including master cylinder and slightly more aggressive suspension settings.  The Silvia was also slightly lighter due to smaller bumper reinforcements and a missing frame rail.  They were also all RHD.

There are a myriad of visual changes and different option packages, but that's beyond the scope of the Tech Talk forum, and much more easily demonstrated by just looking at pictures of Silvias to see the differences.
