https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Silvia#S15 #nissan #nismo Production started as Datsun 1600 coupe in 1965–1968, then Nissan started S-Platform in 1975 being S10 as first vehicle produced which long lasted until the production of S15 Silvia whose production began in 1999(after 24 years) and then ended in 2002 being last vehicle under S-Platform. The S-series is a popular drift car, especially the S13 through S15 vehicles. The car has enjoyed success in the sport, having won 7 D1 Grand Prix championships with 5 different drivers driving the S15 (Nobuteru Taniguchi:2001; Ryuji Miki:2004; Yasuyuki Kazama:2005; Masato Kawabata:2007; Youichi Imamura:2009,2010,2011.Odi Bakchis, a pro level drifter from USA that started drifting in 2011, has his own S14 that races in Formula Drift, finishing third in the Formula Drift USA Championship.He has multiple event wins and has placed in the Top 5 overall in Formula Drift for the past 4 years. In Europe the S13 has also been very popular with pro level drifters, especially in countries like the United Kingdom, Poland, France, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Russia and Ukraine. While some have opted to use the SR20DET engine from Nissan, most drivers have swapped in a larger RB25DET unit, or even the Toyota Supra derived 2JZ, like Pawel Trela from Poland. Silvias have been raced successfully in the All-Japan Grand Touring Car Championship (now Super GT) and its predecessors. Both the S14 and S15 generations of the Silvia won the GT300 class championship in 1997 and 2001 respectively. In the late Eighties, when Group B was banned, S110 and S12 Silvias also saw limited success in rallying, mainly on endurance rallies. During the S13's production, there was a one-make series in Japan. The S13s were also successful in racing in the IMSA GTU class during the 1990s. The Silvia S15 of Under Suzuki has dominated the Tsukuba circuit lap time record for some time. After it defeated the HKS CT230R LanEvo for the record in 2012, Under Suzuki's S15 has been resetting Tsukuba's lap time record. The latest record is currently timed at 51.127s, even faster than an official JGTC race car ARTA NSX. I already made a JGTC model, but this time I picked a Rocket Bunny model for which I decided to make this stock variant first then work on others. Well, Nicely done each and everything especially rear wing. So, here it is, Your Silvia.
