The S15 is a rear-wheel-drive sports coupe, powered by Nissan’s SR20DET; a 2.0 litre in-line 4 cylinder turbocharged engine with air-to-air intercooler that delivers a power output of 250 horsepower that results in a power-to-weight ration of less than 5Kg/PS.

Can you own a S15 in the US?

The Nissan Silvia S15 is currently banned for road use in the United States. Good. The official reason for the S15 being kept off of American roads is because of our 25-year import rule, which bans any car that 1) was not originally sold in the United States and 2) is less than 25 years old.

Is a 200SX a Sentra?

Can I convert an S15 to a S13 Silvia?

The S13 Silvia’s brick style headlights are a popular conversion for non-Japanese market S13’s, as they suit the body much better than the popup style headlights. I’m going to go ahead and recommend that you not do an S15 conversion to a S13 Silvia/240sx coupe.

Is it possible to convert a 240SX to an S15?

It’s been done-Yes. But no, it wasn’t cheap, yes, it took forever and cost tons of money. Try scanning around on the various 240sx forums online, I know of one user who did do the conversion. It looked fantastic and almost (almost!) made his s13 fastback look like an S15. Rear end? S15. Front? S15. Side? Didn’t work.

What is the best front end for a Nissan 240SX?

In the land of automotive conversions, the S15 Silvia front-end conversion is certainly one of the most popular. Fitting an S15 front end to a Nissan S13 or S14 240SX/Silvia/180SX is a relatively simple task, especially when done with as many OEM parts as possible.

Is an S15 rear end conversion possible?

Yes, the S15 rear end conversion is possible, and it has been done. You’ll need S15 rear quarter’s, glass, rear bumper, trunk, you name it, you’ll need it. And nothing will be bolt on. You’ll be paying a monstrous amount of cash to a bodyshop to make it all fit. Labor will probably cost more than all the parts.
