The Nissan Silvia has done me very well. I haven't had any major problems since I've owned the car.
However some of the smaller problems include - the brake lights staying on. This was a cheap 5 dollar fix at the auto electrician.
An exhaust rattle. This was a cheap 12 dollar fix at the auto mechanic.
This car runs beautifully. I haven't had any real problems with it yet. Even after a year.
I would recommend this car to almost anyone into a cheaper sports car, because they are a very durable and long lasting car.
Why does my Nissan Silvia S-13 idle at 400 RPM's. The car has the stock ca 18 in it. Is this right? I just got it imported from japan like a month ago. I'm just kinda curious because the car only has 60000 km. Send response to tsk8_420@hotmail.com Thanks for your help. Have a good one boys drift one for me.
That is were they idel mine sits on 500 rpm they idel low.
The S13 Silvias are supposed to idle at 800RPM.
Read this to adjust the idling

I owned one s13 (sr20de) for about 5 years and the only real issue was cracking appearing on the dashboard. Comes with the Australian climate I guess, and some power window problems (switches falling off and such). Sold her and bought a Holden Vectra... If only I found this site before I bought the Vectra!
