gerald79 - unless its had an engine transplant to a shittier engine, its not a 1993. Can you please update your thread to have the correct details.

It has been check by importers that it is a nissan silvia 1993, the engine was there as this is not the first nissan silvia S13 to have this engine in OZ. They come in different series as well. I also just got a imported book about this issue and it has stated in the book that they do have nissan silvia S13 with this type of engine in them when they will made.

Not trying to be rude but it is not a wrong year and anyone who wants to buy it can also have it check by an importer.

My mate is the one selling his car and i find that it is very cruel to say that the car suxs and all that. If you are interested than reply if not leave yr comments to yrself. You wouldnt want someone to say the same thing that you said when you are selling yr car out right. We are all mature ppl so i hope that we all could understand how my mate feel.

It isnt his fault that it was imported in this way as there are a lot of other nissan silvia S13 with that same engine and it is also not a wrong year. They even have a japanese imported book that carify this issue. It is stated that they are also other series of NIssan Silvia S13.

Tks for understanding and if you want the name of the japanese book ragthering this issue, feel free to PM me and i would give you the title so you would be able to know more about it as i just got to know more about it since my mate wanted to sell his car.

Cheers...

Hi Gerald,

I think you may have misconstrued what Dave is trying to say.

He, in no way was saying the car sux, only that if it was a 93 silvia it should have a sr20 engine. From my understanding post 91/92 silvias have sr20's and all others have ca18's, which appears to be the engine in this silvia.

So Gerald you are right to say that there are other silvia's that have this engine.

IMO it is well priced.

Cheers.

i wasnt saying dave. i was just trying to tell others not to throw comments on it. Sorry for the misunderstanding. In the japanese import book they do state that in 1993 there are still cars with the ca18's engine.

Anyway the car has been sold.

cheers...

shanet - i will close this thread now.... but becuase the compliance plate says its a 1993 doesnt mean jack.. i have seen skylines with NIZMO R33 on their plates... its just what the compliance company originally registered for complaince as.... I suggest you get the VIN code checked to be 100% sure.

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
