Thats a 240sx. American version of the Silvia s14.
There are some used silvias in the US that was already imported here.
but 240s are known as s14s.

The skyline wasnt in the US because the govenment wouldent allow it because of high emmisions(sp) but theres a company that builds skylines in america to the US emmisions(sp) standard.

It's called Motorex. They also built the kick-*** Blackbird.
They don't sell silvia in the US, but, you can get a 240SX and get a JDM Silvia front end conversion, and it'll be the same thing.

I was actually gonna buy a 240 like you have in that pic. I was gonna sr20 swap it and then id be done except for exterior mods. but the eclipse was the other way around...looks THEN performance, but its a waste as of now, the eclipes will never be considered a FAST car lol. Might as well save up for a wrx or maybe an evo down the road
