Here's a peep at the latest Nissan S16 Silvia. Comments
welcome!
Anyway, I highly doubt that the S16 will be a heavy car, since the
S15 spec R (the fast, turbo Silvia) weighed in at just over 2,700
lbs., which is quite lightweight (less than an FD, Chin!). The S16
will replace the s20rbdett (or whatever the old engine was called)
with a modified version of the Nissan X-trail's SR20vet (that must
be one fast SUV!).
Notice that the article claims it should retail for 2500000 yen,
which is about $20,000 US dollars. ANd that's an FR, turbo car that
cranks out 280 horse power (about 220 lb/ft torque) from 1,998
cubic centimeters of displacement. Pretty impressive, I'd say.
