If it had 4 doors, then its not a Silvia.

People do stupid nose and tail conversions all the time, its possible someone wanted to make their ugly sedan look like the second ugliest modern Silvia (after the S12 "Gazelle") ever made.

cant have been a ceffy, there not ugly!!

s13-a31 same chassis/suspension

[racsov500]

yer its a s12. come with the lawnmower powerplant ca20 as in later bluebirds and r31 pintaras. sweet looking little cars, could be a big rival to the ae86 if it wasnt for their shit drivelines and lack of aftermarket support. popular conversion is ye old ca18

[Sarumatix]

Be aware they came out with IRS and non IRS variants. All came with CA20e engine, which is rubbish.

[PSI_GTSII]

The one in the picture is AUS Spec Nissan Gazelle so is CA20e powered

(Turbos were'nt sold from factory here)

It is also a Notchback, they came in a Hatchback style also.

Look nice but need engine conversion, CA18DET and FJ20T factory fit in Japan.
