Well,

I just picked up a clean example of a car that I had from 1983 to 1987 in California.

An amazing car in amazing condition. The rockers and some metal needs replacing (along with the rear shocks), but it drove from Minnesota to Illinois with no problems noted (except for the rear shocks needing replacement). The interior is in fantastic shape.

More pictures to follow.

There are still actually Silvia S10 afficianados here in the states. What I need, is a decent part source for the car since there is literally no enthusiast support here in the states for this 1st generation (to the US at least) car. I am interested in an Aussie or Japanese online location (or off-line if someone wants to play go between), as I'd like to actually improve this car.

I guarantee that this car will be the only one in Car shows here in the Midwestern part of the states (maybe in the whole of the US).

I would love to hear from others down under just what they think of this vehicle.

Looks really nice :thumbsup: And seems to be in pretty good condition for a car of its age. The engine is an L20B, I assume ?

Unfortunately, these weren't exported to Australia so we probably won't be much use for parts.

Could have sworn it was..... maybe the Japanese 1st gen I've seen elsewhere.

It is an L20b. :)

That is definitely different, So space age. Nice work on wanting to do her up. Guessing because it's a nissan it would be generic for parts. Bit's like bumper's and that us ozzy's wouldent be able to help you out with. But with parts for the L20 yer. Is it a live rearaxle or irs.
