Just yesterday I saw you uploaded a video of a GTI-R. And now there´s a video of the S15. It´s one of the most beautiful (and timeless) designs! Either it´s closed or opened (Varietta)! :)
True, rather than building more jacked up chelopnies. If they do it's gotta have at least 280hp turbo engine, FR drivetrain with LSD, independent suspension, weigh around 1350kg, 6MT/at least 6 speed twin clutch tranny (no moped gearbox pls!!) and aggressive yet sexy bodywork!!
Thank you to the owner for allowing you to film the car for the channel i’m ridiculously jealous and more so when i see one on the road, and i live in california...
do a little research and you'll find your answer. Japanese business men that went to school and worked for years know more than you. shit even Derek mentions one reason why in this video. But of course you're totally oblivious.
And yet, you haven't said a single useful thing about why they didn't sell them (or anything else). You are what's wrong with youtube comments little troll.
could just say that there wasn't really a market for turbo 4 cylinders from japan in the USA until subaru brought the wrx to the states, but nah let's just flame some guy who's just unsure. that's the best thing to do
There was a guy in Chicago that owned a yellow S15 like this one but recently totaled it. It's really a tradegy considering how rare it is to see one in the states.
Looks good and a rare spec too! The a pillar gauge is standard on the spec R, whereas the spec S got an oil pressure gauge but only on Aero models I believe. The aero kit isn't nismo, it's the factory optional aero kit. However nismo did do two other kits for the s15, s tune and r tune. I have a blue one imported last year and it's just amazing. They're as close to perfect cars as you can get in my opinion. Also they weigh only 1240kg!
By pathfinder did you Mean x-trial? They had a model that was factory 4x4 sr20vet, we get them here In new Zealand due to everything being imports over here :)
I want this one SOOO Bad ORRR a blue one with the stock wing like this and the nismo kit like this ESPECIALLY with the blue or orange but preferably the blue interior
When you're seeing an oil pressure gauge in a japanese car that measuring in kg/cm2,then you can assure it is a true JDM unit.All of my machines(cnc-lathe,grinder) that i'm working with, have these strange gauges.(At least the older ones,the newer machines measuring in MPa.) 😉-Sorry,turbo pressure! 😊
Lovely color for a lovely car. But Derek, are you sure it's a Nismo front? I always known it as regular full areo. The side skirts is more common then uncommon. Maybe Spec S never had them? I know Autech versions had weird areo versions as well (never looked good imho) But I got a feeling that when people wanted to buy a S15 back in the days, they first couldn't choose dealer to get a basic look, and then everything was extra. In my book this (with the rear spats) was when the owner went full Areo. But then if you look how auctions sometime type "full are" its still missing parts.. In my book. Anyways, love the car, this is how the should look, perfection. Interkor is grey, blue, orange, and leather or leather look. Yes, there is a even rarer S15 named Style A (says so on the side where Spec R is on this) with Ferrari colors on most of the dash, seats. It was also available in Ferrari red outside. Some weird collaboration.
I don't wanna wait 25 fucking years when person after person has had themselves a good ol' time beating & smashing on the cars more than they already have been being 10+ years old already. Can I just illegally import a mint r34 or two & call it a day? Lol
This car does not look 18 years old. Aged so well.

You could tell someone it’s a 2012 Nissan and they’ll just go along with it. Such a beautiful design
The S13's and S15's are such beautiful cars. The S14's looked a bit blah to me after the S13, and then the S15 came along and just looked amazing!
Hi Derek... nice review of this beautiful S15 and shoutout to the JDM tree at 6:00 .🙌 Cheers, buddy.
Ah. An S15 with the standard areo kit? I thought I saw these in Gran Turismo 2
All S15s on GT games are the aero spec, which means having body kits
To the new owner... please please track/drift it with care. 😊
시진
You the seller?
I live in estonia and i have seen it few times, looks like he doesn't drift it or race it, and its only one in estonia
Saarekas I think I saw it at the jdm August meet?
you are INSANE. The stock s15 tail lights are some of the coolest in the buisness!! So unique! Looovee it so much!
Just yesterday I saw you uploaded a video of a GTI-R.

ah yes i found this car in gran turismo and i always wanted one,i hope one day i can buy one.
i just love the older imports! i had a 2001 honda s2000, they have such great character!
Man Nissan needs to make a new Silvai so bad for the states! That car still looks so good all of these years later.

Wait, so is this beauty located in Estonia now? Cool, we need more of these JDM goodness here in the Baltics :D
@Puerto Rican Boxing is Gay no pretty sure imported to im from estonia and have seen it on the streets here
Now Sammit got me looking over you S15 vids .... they are growing on me quickly
Thank you to the owner for allowing you to film the car for the channel i’m ridiculously jealous and more so when i see one on the road, and i live in california...
It would have been unfair not to. Saw PCA on youtube the first time and have been checking cars out ever since.
Lauri L i appreciate you. Congratulations on the car!
Lauri L thank you so much I hope keep it nice!
I'm cool and I already know about the orange s15 seats because I watch the weekly auction pick videos :)
Always appreciate these videos, thanks for sharing with us!
Stunning vehicle!
That is such a beautiful car why wouldn't they offer theses cars In the states, they would sell like crazy
do a little research and you'll find your answer. Japanese business men that went to school and worked for years know more than you. shit even Derek mentions one reason why in this video. But of course you're totally oblivious.
Justin chill buddy!
Im not your buddy, guy. and Hunchoz, thats not the reason why it wasn't sold in the US.
And yet, you haven't said a single useful thing about why they didn't sell them (or anything else). You are what's wrong with youtube comments little troll.

Beautiful car. Why wait 25 years, we should be able to import cars like this to the U.S. now!
Ohhh it's preeetty
ImaDjentleman yeessh
Yes! I love rare and funky colour combos. And special bonus that it's a rare option!
There was a guy in Chicago that owned a yellow S15 like this one but recently totaled it. It's really a tradegy considering how rare it is to see one in the states.
my favourite car Nissan Silvia that aero kit damn I wish i could own that car
Also a stock steering wheel on an S-chassis Nissan is rare to see lmao
I'm not even an S chassis guy but I may have to pick one of these up in a decade assuming any are left in good shape
Little left for sure. You'll be paying a bohemoth amount, let's say 40-60k Aud maybe more for Areo Spec R's. 30k^ Usd I believe??
Those seats looks super cool!
Looks good and a rare spec too! The a pillar gauge is standard on the spec R, whereas the spec S got an oil pressure gauge but only on Aero models I believe.

Peter Jackson arnt these illegal until 2024? Or can u import it early for extra cost?
Such a bloody beautiful colour on the s15!
Nice styling. Would be nice if there is a red or black one available for showing.
Autech made S15 Silvia Spec S' with the 6 speed transmission. Bu they are kinda rare.
I did not know that
PacificCoastAuto now you know. ;-)
I love your videos btw. :-) keep it up Derek.
it’s called the varietta or some shit, you can take the hardtop off
SPEC S's that are sold here in Australia came with the sr20det and a 6 speed manual. Sucks for u Yankee doodles!
Do your videos with all the exterior lights and turn signals on.
Excellent review by the way.
glad i live in aus where they r common. Just bought a jdm imported spec r w/o having to go through any hassle of importing it myself
What a beautiful Silvia! I'd like it in black or gunmetal personally
By pathfinder did you Mean x-trial? They had a model that was factory 4x4 sr20vet, we get them here In new Zealand due to everything being imports over here :)
Ah yes T30. There´s no Pathinder with SR20. But the X-Trail is heavier than the S15.
That Was A Beautiful Car
Favorite interior by far there was a set of seats for sale near me for 1200$
Nice Soarer in the background :)
this is the inspiration of the holden sedan
sooooo awesome! I love the s15 so much
Gran Turismo 1 didn't do that car justice omfg, that's the most beautiful car i've ever seen, apart from maybe the Evo 9... wow
Super awesome car, thanks so much.
In Gran Turismo, I miss the S15. :'( It was removed from Gran Turismo in March 2018.
Sweet yellow, nice Spec R Aero bumper!!
A piece of jdm beauty
My dream car👉🥺❤️
I want this one SOOO Bad ORRR a blue one with the stock wing like this and the nismo kit like this ESPECIALLY with the blue or orange but preferably the blue interior
What a gem
This car is already in Estonia :) !
Damn so clean and pretty
You guys ever have a Subaru Impreza Wrx STI type r?
OMG I LOVE THIS CAR!! IT'S MY BELOVED GOOD 'OL FAVORITE!!
Canada is so lucky😍💛😞
lovely derek
Wow that's clean!
what was the special interior piece you were talking about
What a sweet looking car
I used to have such a JDM-modification. Got jammed the twitter and cracked the body of it. :-D
A GoPro-boot. Cool.
Sounds awesome. ^_^
badass interior
May not original cluster nor orange seat/trim? The cluster dials should be orange too.
amazing car
I WANT THIS ONE SO BAD AS LONG AS IT'S SPEC R AND STICK SHIFT!!
that left rear quarter and door are super wavy...

Can you get a Pajero Evo on the channel. Always thought they were cool
Amazing machine!!!!

@PacificCoastAuto is a Silvia s13 legal to import and register in the USA? does the 25 year rule apply here ? Thanks
I think you meant turbo X-trail?
Dat aftermarket Air filter is actually the Honeycomb air filter there 🙂🙂
Looks nice
I love this Silvia but I wish the Nissan make the newest model for Nissan Silvia.
it looks way perfect!
not a big fan of the tail lights though. But other then that it's real nice
What’s the website if there’s one to look at the inventory
Features:
- Driver side seat bolster was caressed by Derek Weldon himself
sr20det pathfinder?, isn't a pathfinder called a terrano in japan or is it a completely different thing?
DM86 it’s the x-trail gt that got the sr20vet
Is it going to Estonia or have you made a mistake in the headline?
It is going, and it is in Estonia. I have seen it here.
What bodykit is that
Why is it that no one buys the S14?
because North America already got the S14, of course we didn't get the one with the SR20 but we still got it so its not as desirable.
Because it was the S15 that wasn't sold anywhere else other than countries like Japan and Australia iirc, and S14s are everywhere as 200/240SXes
Anomaly well explained.
Cause every time you look at it a part breaks.
Wow nice 🤑🤑🤑
I’ve never seen those tail lights before
10/10 JDM cool factor
Man if you threw some 50/50 tails and a bit more low it would be perfect
I don't wanna wait 25 fucking years when person after person has had themselves a good ol' time beating & smashing on the cars more than they already have been being 10+ years old already. Can I just illegally import a mint r34 or two & call it a day? Lol
Sweet deal👍🍍
Does anyone know which rear lights the car has?
Dunno, can't remember any markings also
I like this a lot for some reason never thought I’d like fruit salad
I'm in love
Did you import that car to the USA and how?
he imported it to canada or maybe it was already there.
yellow best colour
A SR20 turbo Pathfinder!!?! I have to find one lol
Were these sold new in North America?
scanspeak00 no
What's this, an Eastern European import that isn't a BMW or Mercedes??
Saving my coins for s15, when legal in us!
Nice :)
Sweet
I can't believe how empty your lot is! Almost half the cars there are yours! 😁
what did you pay for this?
Lowcals next cars maybe? 🤔
is it possible to buy a car from the junkyard
samory wilson I have no idea, but even if you were able to, I think the import fees taxes, etc woulb be more then the junkyard car would be worth
I'm not too worried about the tax I'm just looking for a project car to work on
Your company in canada? Can we buy from you and import to the states?
toastopia1 this question is as old as the Universe itself, u can import any car as long as its 25 years or older
well i guess i have to look for a 25 year old car!
