"An excellent quality bargain"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

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.

General comments?

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.

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!
