Well Guys,

I Love my SC and will never trade it in or sell it, but I have the itch to drive a manual car. I have all the parts to do a conversion ( Well I hope I do) 2ZGTE engine, 154 tranny, engine mounts, Intercooler, Hardpiping , Blow off, and engine wiring. The Only thing I dont have is to convert to Manual clutch. Let me know if I am missing any parts for the swap. So either I convert the entire SC to 5 speed manual with a 2JZGTE, or buy a ready S14.5 with an
SR20 as a third car.

SPECS OF THE SILVIA:

HKS Type 1 Turbo Timer
HKS boost controller
GREDDY intake kit
GREDDY RS blowoff valve
GREDDY intercooler
GREDDY Pully Kit
WALBRO fuel pump
NGK Sparkplugs
KOYO Radiator
BILLION radiator cap
NISMO Racing Thermostats

I am having sleepless nights wondering what to do with this. Point me in the right direction

Umm what's with the bahrain plates dude? Is this some guy you found on the internet wanting to trade you this via an ebay escrow account?

If it is legit, I'd say both have their pros and cons- an s14 with an s15 front is a beautiful thing.... except I'm not a fan of that front bumper :/. But It's a close call- obviously the SC is more luxury than race car- but what are you really after?

Its all Legit, I live in Bahrain now

I have seen the car and drove it around. Its really a clean piece.

Haha well my foot's in my mouth then . Should've noticed the bahrain plates on your SC! I'd say if your interior on the SC is in near perfect condition that would sell it for me- speed AND luxury is a hard to beat combo....

its soooooooooooooooooooo hard for me to say the Silvia when i got an SC but bro..... depending on what your doing and wanting to do, i would say...

Silvia: sporty, fast as hell, drifts better, cheaper parts....cheap insurance
SC: Classier, smoother, less flashy, Fast as hell, tough to drift but doable, expensive parts....$$ insurance

you weigh the options...

but im a suckaer for the silviaS!

So you really want to buy a done car? someone else built with their own style?... everywhere you go its going be OH thats "the past owners car".. never your car. That 240 is very nice, but I still say since u have almost all the parts swap your sc400. The sc400 will also cost more to do compare to a 240. So compare your $$$ you can put into your project.

last i checked 2jzgte ****s all over the sr20. do the conversion mate, your Sc looks mint.

i would keep the SC. yes it easier to drift a silvia, but how often are you going to be drifting?., the silvia is a bit more sporty, but it gives the boy racer look that cops are attracted to.

Fully built sr @ 16psi, might yeild 400rwhp...2jzgte will hit that while still running BPU...240 is sexy, but the SC has class. I say stick with the SC

Gspec

I'd go 240....400hp in a 240 is like 600 in a sc with the weight difference....My s13 was making 392 at the wheels....that made for one hell of a fast car.

iam going to do a 1jz swap. iam going to KEEP BOTH. the silvia although a 4 bangger is way lighter and nimbler than the soarer. but if you want more hp per dollar then you got the jz. life is 2 short. if you can afford it get it and have 2.
