What are the differences between the Nissan 240sx and Nissan Silvia? - Click HERE for Original Thread

Bince
Ok, I want to know.
is there a difference at all between a 240sx and a silvia that are the same year.
such as a 80's 240sx and an S13 from japan of that same year.
Or a 95 240sx and an S14 from Japan of that same year.

The main difference in the s13 and s14 is that in Japan they are RHD of course and they came with a CA18DET or a SR20DET(i believe 1991+)

Other wise pretty much everything is the exact same.

240sx here and silvia in japan is the same.. coupe is called the silvia over there and fastback is called the 180sx.. the only difference is the badging and engines.

they have 3 different engines.. ka24de non turbo in north america and ca18det or sr20det turbo charged in japan.

the same thing goes for the s14 over there and 95 240sx over here... everything is the same but again different engines

s13 = 240sx, 180sx, silvia

s14= 95/98 240sx, silvia


lol...
cough noob

And for S13's in Japan the Silvia was the coupe style and the 180sx was the fastback style. where in north america 240sx's were availble in either coupe or fastback

and the look of a 240sx and a s13 are different.

A 240sx is a s13. S13 is the chasis code.

All usdm s13's came with the pig nose if it was a coupe or a hatch. Everywhere else the siliva got different projector lights on the coupe and the 180sx looked the same as our 240sx hatch.

Because you're probably going to ask a silvia with the 180sx pig nose put on it (making it look like usdm 240sx coupes) is know as a Oneiva and a 180sx with silvia projectors is known as a Sil80

240sx coupe


S13 Silvia


180sx/240sx hatch


Sil80


S13.5 aka strawberry face - s13 with s15 front end
