Question about front c;ips

[mikeroy420]

I'm buying an S13 front clip. What should I get the 180sx or the silvia? Black top motor or red top motor? Is there anything else I should be looking for?

black top will be newer and most likely less miles

[240silvia]

I totally agree, even though I personally like the red top better, the black top will have less miles, which equals less problems. Black top for sure!

Should I search or should I blab some questions?

why.. is there a particular reason other than price?

Only difference is that the red top came in all the S13's except the newer 180sx (1994-1997). Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Newer might mean less miles but I'm sure you can find a few good red tops with low miles. You do pay for what you get.

Good Luck w/ SR :D

Okay thanks for the help guys, I was asking cause they want 600 dollars more for the silvia, then the 180sx.

thats true, but you usually can't be certain on mileage.

There is a higher probability of getting a low mileage black top.

The colors :D , red stands out more than black.

plus the red on the redtops goes good with the red 240s and the other colors, nissan is smart :) also the reason they want more for the silvia clip is because it will likely come with fenders, bumper, hood, lights some of that anyway and 180sx is what u have now.
