Silvia History Video? BMI/HOT Version, etc? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Does one of the major companies(Best Motoring, Hot Version,etc.) have any indepth film on the history of the Silvia/S-Chassis? There are hachi-roku vids, type R vids and even something highlighting the Z33 but why nothing towards the S? Isn't that car much more popular abroad than here?

i have a Silvia dedicated video.

it's mostly about tuning the SR20DET, however..

Nob has a S13 q's built to perfection and uses it to take on Kogouchi in his old black World 180sx.
it's an entertaining. video.

I've seen that one, it's an option video in which NOB has Yashio Factory install and tune an S15 SR into the S13qs body. He also mated an S15 rear subframe to the 13 and increased body ridigity or something or other 60% right?

- I mean are there any videos directly about the different styles of S-Chassis. For example, BMI has that Legend of the Type R and cover the various models of Rs and the type of people that drive them. Is there one only about the S, and why have we not seen it?

Hyper Rev had a Silvia video which was all about the Silvia. Hot Version (Japanese version, not US) did a video all on modified Silvias too.

As for why there isn't a "Legend of Silvia" or "I love Silvia" type of video is because the car is so popular and common in tuning circles in Japan that it isn't very specialized. Its like having a "Legend of the Civic" here in the USA.

It's like option 32 or 33 I can't quite remember. I wish I had a copy of it right now.I know its the one where NOB get the s13 q's and does like a s15 swap and turbo,cams, and stuff and fully suspension and he puts a s15 subframe on it but i wish I had all of the video that is all I have seen of it.

It's the Option 2 #34 180sx/Silvia special.
I might have seen this a good 15 times or so. By far my favorite Option video.
Can't wait till this comes out here with subtitles.
Stink and Break's kouki 180s never fail to make me drool.
Excellent video, can't praise it enough. [/fanboy]

If I remember correctly,

they put on an oil cooler, a HKS T-28, S15 Rear sub-frame, which they called a rear "suspention" member in engrish, new control arms, spearco seats, and some other shit that i couldn't remember.

That 200mph Black S13 was the steal of the show IMHO. I mean, it even looked clean. All go and no show.. excellent
