Silvia fanboys start drooling

03 Oct 2017

If you are a fan of the Nissan Silvia, you would know that the one to get is the K’s Edition for the S13/14 or the Spec-R for the S15.
Let’s ignore the 240SX because that’s like the hillbilly cousin of the Silvia.

Anyone who knows everything about Silvias would have heard of the legendary SR20VET engine - while the SR20DET makes up to 250PS from factory, the additional Variable Valve Lift version came with 280PS and 309nm out of the box - that’s as much as an RB25DET in an R33/R34.

It was only ever available in one vehicle, and one of those has come up for sale in New Zealand.

So if you have a Silvia and were planning on buying that RB26DETT at the post-US-legal prices to swap in, for the same price you could get a fully road-legal family car to swap the head with your S15 just to say “yeah bro, my Silvia has an SR20VET”.

Here are a couple articles about the SR20VET for you to digest:

Not a fan of the sr20vet

Why not? They pretty much improved everything by redesigning the head.
