Big Love from Europe guys we love your channel this Silvia turn out super-nice and it performed a nice dino-pull with no mods.. Anyway keep those (OEM) stock rear light for when you want to swap them back, otherwise this like any other project.. you did got amazing !
I have a ideia, since there is no Camry TRD 4wd , why not pickup q Camry 2.5 4wd and try to make ir faster than a TRD? I think there is some vídeo one guy changing 2.5 heads and getting big power added without FI. Maybe even changing final drive in the autobox is possible.. You later can make also a TRD tune car.
If you decide to leave the newer lights in, black them out a bit so it blends in more… getting bit of a zeroes Lexus lights dejavu… and for the wheels.. hate the stretch lips wheel rings… get a slightly less wilde front wheel than it is really spot on!!
And the OEM badges, give credit where credit is due. Nissan gets such a bad rap because of their econo box commuting appliances, let folks on the road know Nissan makes awesome sports cars!
that's a hard call with the taillights for me too. i like the more modern ones, but you are right that the top part (clear/chrome) on them isn't really fitting imo. also cant wait to see a follow up vid when winter is over!
I demand headstuds, gasket,440cc injectors, a 2871r and a retune!! :) It's so beautiful, Pete! As a 25 year long s-chassis lover, these are the GOAT for me.
I totally understand your struggles with choosing badging and tailights. You all have such good taste. My thoughts are to keep the black tailights and no badging. It goes with the theme of the car better and looks more aggressive. I love that it looks like a rare no-name car in grand theft auto.
I'm with you guys. I'm split pretty much 50/50 on the tail lights. I don't hate the new ones, but I also like the stock look. Also I loved this build series. Actually I don't think you guys have done a single build that I didn't like... Keep it up, your stuff is amazing!
I like the idea of a Chevy SS build, something we don’t normally see our get in Canada. And it’s gotta be a manual. As for the S15, looks great as an OEM plus build, that looks lasts a long time vs the body kit of the week builds. Still not a RHD fan tho. Now, how about that wagon face off?
I enjoyed the square set-up. The stretched 225 on improperly sized wheels looks like ass. 225 on a proper size wheel would fix that. The OEM taillights painted red look really nice though!
Kinda get Toyota chaser vibes out of those tails. Modern and It’s not horrible… it’ll grow on ya! Always wanted one of these Silvia’s, you guys did such a great job with everything. It looks incredible.
I like the fact that you put on different wheels. When I bought my WRX everyone was putting on the same wheels. I put Prodrive PFF7's on in Anthracite. The whole point of customizing your car is so it doesn't look like everyone else's.
Red and black lights for sure. Also, while TE’s look good on everything, it definitely gets boring seeing them on everything. It’s good to see more budget friendly wheels that are also nice. The internet just has everyone jaded.
There's nothing wrong with a little wheel poke in my opinion. Think it looks so good on this car, but the adjustment looks great as well. These wheels are class 👌🏽
I absolutely love this OEM+ build. It is such a fantastic looking car and optimizing the stock stuff is the way to go. Drive it for many, many street miles.
I like the newer taillights without the black surrounds Also I think you should just add another LightningBolt S to the rear and call it a day. Keep the mystique
My vote would be to put the stock amber side markers and go back to the OEM Amber/Red tail lights. THAT, would be OEM plus on this... Also, debadged trunk.
Despite those who see the grand prix similarities in the oem taillights I think they look way sleeker, and more cohesive. Thank god it looks like an s15 and not a grand prix, but do what y’all like, we trust the vision!
I was one of those original chirpers, teasing about the taillights. I must say, I'm also a bit torn on the new taillights. I think I like the new ones just a hair more. That may be because my parents owned two Grand Ams and I was triggered by the stock lights. Much love from Vancouver Island.
I've always liked the S15 tail lights and personally really like the red on red. I've always felt like the S15 taillights stood out. Shrug I do also really like this type of build and agree that it's nice just do a nice solid OEM+ style build that just a nice car. Nothing crazy... just a nice clean build.
Great video! I like the original taillights with the amber. I feel having three colors gives more depth but bottom line I feel like it’s just a bad shape from Nissan and can’t shake those Grand Am vibes 😂
Sounds a looks great. I like the new taillights too. The older ones looked more period to me, but I'm an older JDM guy and used to seeing that look on the S15s.
225 with a stretch is probably the biggest tire I would put on a S-Chassis front wheel - Also would help if you did 17" wheels in the front. It's an old trick not a lot of people do in modern times but prevents a lot of rubbing inside the fender well.
Really enjoyed this build series. Simple upgrades that the average JDM car enthusiast would be into doing on their own rides. Spring time can't come soon enough to get that on the track. Also let's see some more BMW's!
I know you guys are down playing the dyno numbers but I think for what the combination is those are great numbers and this is probably a very fun car to drive 👍
Thank you for trying a fix for the Pontiac rear end, I personally think its an improvement. Another option is OEM with the Silvia badge. SA plate holders too.
Click the thumbs up if you got the EARTH SHATTERING joke in the title. (Hint: its not really that earth shattering at all 😂)
Big Love from Europe guys we love your channel this Silvia turn out super-nice and it performed a nice dino-pull with no mods..
Anyway keep those (OEM) stock rear light for when you want to swap them back, otherwise this like any other project.. you did got amazing !
All red tails look hideous, stick with whatever those other ones are.... Not a fan of clear, but it's the lesser of two evils lol
Sounds like a micra... check out my software..
I have a ideia, since there is no Camry TRD 4wd , why not pickup q Camry 2.5 4wd and try to make ir faster than a TRD? I think there is some vídeo one guy changing 2.5 heads and getting big power added without FI. Maybe even changing final drive in the autobox is possible.. You later can make also a TRD tune car.
Makes about the same power as a N/A K24. Nice!
Stock lights look soooooooooo much better
The aftermarket ones make it look like an impreza
Those new tail lights remind me of a mid 90s Mazda 626. I prefer the stock tails. They're unique IMO.
Hyundai Coupe comes to mind as well 💩
I agree the stock tails suited the color better.
Agreed. Pete has great taste in cars and am sure he'll go back to the factory ones.
New taillights make it look like a Camry. Stock all the way👍👍
If you decide to leave the newer lights in, black them out a bit so it blends in more… getting bit of a zeroes Lexus lights dejavu… and for the wheels.. hate the stretch lips wheel rings… get a slightly less wilde front wheel than it is really spot on!!
Stock lights look awesome
Keep the stock tail lights, classic Silvia.
Would love to see the skyline and the Silvia on the track together! Loved the series. 😎👍
Loved this series and build style! As for the taillights I’d have to go with the OEM ones myself!
And the OEM badges, give credit where credit is due. Nissan gets such a bad rap because of their econo box commuting appliances, let folks on the road know Nissan makes awesome sports cars!
OEM tail lights ftw! Embrace the amber!
When the weather gets better, will there be a lot more track reviews, battles, or track build series? Really miss the older track focused stuff.
Yep, it would be interesting if they went out to Area 27 with a bunch of their cars, that track is just amazing!
OEM+ and street cars are the way to go!! You guys do a really good job at that.
We’d love to see a track segment with it.
I love it. Awesome build
The original tail lights that came on the car have the rare factory optional rear fog light. Most didn't have it, actually very rare
Yes! Build a G8! One of my favourite cars I’ve ever owned.
single reverse light is a rare rear foglight option, mainly for Japan am Europe and it is oem, super rare
This is an uncommon build and I like the OEM+ focus. Nicely done.
I Love the black wheels. They Look amazing👌
OEM+ builds are a great addition to the collection of videos
New taillights for sure looks more sleek and modern. You definitely do not want to start taking styling tips from GM haha
that's a hard call with the taillights for me too. i like the more modern ones, but you are right that the top part (clear/chrome) on them isn't really fitting imo. also cant wait to see a follow up vid when winter is over!
Can't wait to see this thing on the street. Also, I would LOOOVE to see a Pontiac G8/Holden Commodore build! Love my G8 GXP
I demand headstuds, gasket,440cc injectors, a 2871r and a retune!! :) It's so beautiful, Pete! As a 25 year long s-chassis lover, these are the GOAT for me.
It already has 740s side feeds
The clear lenses for the tail lights for sure! Great build.

The wheels look fine . I agree . TE are sweet on almost anything but i like seeing something different
I like the idea of a Chevy SS build, something we don’t normally see our get in Canada. And it’s gotta be a manual. As for the S15, looks great as an OEM plus build, that looks lasts a long time vs the body kit of the week builds. Still not a RHD fan tho. Now, how about that wagon face off?
This car came together so cleanly, perfect OEM+ build imo! Gonna be so much fun to drive once weather permits :)
I enjoyed the square set-up. The stretched 225 on improperly sized wheels looks like ass. 225 on a proper size wheel would fix that. The OEM taillights painted red look really nice though!
Love the wheel and tire setup! TE37's are amazing but definitely a bit overdone. Beautiful car overall.
Yeah, I'd hate to have te37! Ugh gross. That said, if anyone is selling 4x100 te37 in a 16", reach out! Serious.
@@bgee461 Did you miss the part where I said they're amazing?
Great looking car, nice sound, perfect wheels and looks so clean. Nissan really nailed the S15.
The fitment is perfect. Most of the people in these comment sections have probably never even owned a bycicle
Definitely looks proper with the clear tail lamps. Much cleaner look
I like the new tail lights. They remind of the Acura 3.2TL Type S and 3.2CL Type S tail lights from the same vintage as the S15. 👌
i think the wheel choice was great, something different is always refreshing
I like the new trails seeing them together. I think they'd look better with a light smoke to them. Nothing too dark.
I am so glad i am not the only one sick of seeing every car with the same wheels.
nice to see an accurate dyno on the internet.
Love the series. Now let’s see some Connie!!
I can't unsee the Pontiac GrandAM in the rear now that you said it. I want to see you guys drive all the things!
Awesome guys! Exactly my kind of build, preserving the original goodness. Keep it up!
Beautiful build, love the simplicity.
Those red/clear tail lights are giving me 2013 Ford Fusion vibes.
It'd be fun to see a video with all the cars you build over the winter at the track at once - Show off that Canadian car life! 🤣
Slight smoke on the clear section of the tails would match the front headlights
Great series, I am OEM+ at heart. I do like the red and clear taillights.
G8 with Holden conversion!! Yes please!! A build off with a LS/LT vs Coyote 5.0 would be cool too
Kinda get Toyota chaser vibes out of those tails. Modern and It’s not horrible… it’ll grow on ya! Always wanted one of these Silvia’s, you guys did such a great job with everything. It looks incredible.
always Love the "OEM+" builds
Head studs and head gasket and go for more power with a vvl head! Let’s go!!
Modified Stock Taillights for the win! Hands down.
I run 235's and they fit perfect with natural camber.
Has the same conundrum with my tails, ended up going a set from 78works love em👌
I like the taillights you started with a lot better. Just my opinion, pick whichever one you like!
That's the most bootiful car
I like the fact that you put on different wheels. When I bought my WRX everyone was putting on the same wheels. I put Prodrive PFF7's on in Anthracite. The whole point of customizing your car is so it doesn't look like everyone else's.
So glad the fitment is fixed ❤
Red and black lights for sure.
Also, while TE’s look good on everything, it definitely gets boring seeing them on everything. It’s good to see more budget friendly wheels that are also nice. The internet just has everyone jaded.
9th gen sedan with all the bells and whistles. You said in previous episodes you wanted to build one. Can't wait for the day you do
Silvia deserves to be badged because the nameplate is so cool...
I am a fan of the LED headlights and taillights that are now available.
The new taillights with a light smoke would be PERFECT
There's nothing wrong with a little wheel poke in my opinion. Think it looks so good on this car, but the adjustment looks great as well. These wheels are class 👌🏽
Bring this back in the Spring
S15 is a sleek sleeper and love the build. Awesome!
Those half clears tail lights are 👌
I absolutely love this OEM+ build. It is such a fantastic looking car and optimizing the stock stuff is the way to go. Drive it for many, many street miles.
I like that the celica is on the lift.
Stay stock tail lights. Great fitment on the new front tire 👌🏻
My Mazdaspeed is quiet, unassuming, comfortable and very fast. 320whp on the street is the sweet spot for me.
All red rear lights by a million miles! I’ve always thought the S15 rear lights were the weak point of the car, and those all reds look excellent.
That's a nice Toyota Solara youve got there, Pete! 😜
Yeah the rear lights
Was thinking the same
I can’t wait for you guys to get back to test drives on a racetrack instead of the streets.
Best car in your shed.
I like the newer taillights without the black surrounds
Also I think you should just add another LightningBolt S to the rear and call it a day. Keep the mystique
My vote would be to put the stock amber side markers and go back to the OEM Amber/Red tail lights. THAT, would be OEM plus on this... Also, debadged trunk.
Despite those who see the grand prix similarities in the oem taillights I think they look way sleeker, and more cohesive. Thank god it looks like an s15 and not a grand prix, but do what y’all like, we trust the vision!
Love what you did with car. Everything just flows!
I was one of those original chirpers, teasing about the taillights.
I must say, I'm also a bit torn on the new taillights. I think I like the new ones just a hair more. That may be because my parents owned two Grand Ams and I was triggered by the stock lights.
Much love from Vancouver Island.
Clear top taillights. ❤
good call on leaving the badges off..always a fan of going badgless
If you guys had done that c6 zo6 build you'd have to admit how in love you are with both the corvette platform and LS motors 🤔
I've always liked the S15 tail lights and personally really like the red on red. I've always felt like the S15 taillights stood out. Shrug
I do also really like this type of build and agree that it's nice just do a nice solid OEM+ style build that just a nice car. Nothing crazy... just a nice clean build.
nah those Hexaforms look great on the S15. Excellent taste PT.
I'd vote for bring it back for the track.
God that car is so beautiful. I watch every video you guys post, and it is so cool to see these cars that I have no knowledge of. Great stuff
orange top red bottom tails look the best in my opinion
Great video! I like the original taillights with the amber. I feel having three colors gives more depth but bottom line I feel like it’s just a bad shape from Nissan and can’t shake those Grand Am vibes 😂
Amber is the heat we all need sometimes.
Soon no one will remember what a grand am is was. S15's will endure
Always top notch content! Keep it coming with the OEM+ builds.
Seeing Connie on the lift at the end of the video is exciting
Sounds a looks great. I like the new taillights too. The older ones looked more period to me, but I'm an older JDM guy and used to seeing that look on the S15s.
Car looks amazing no matter what. I'm more fond of the oem tails and wider tires though.
225 with a stretch is probably the biggest tire I would put on a S-Chassis front wheel - Also would help if you did 17" wheels in the front. It's an old trick not a lot of people do in modern times but prevents a lot of rubbing inside the fender well.
New tail lights much better! My first thought on the rears was Grand Am- before you mentioned it.
Really enjoyed this build series. Simple upgrades that the average JDM car enthusiast would be into doing on their own rides. Spring time can't come soon enough to get that on the track. Also let's see some more BMW's!
Keep the back end clean without the emblems 👌🏻😎
that Z28 camaro tho!!!! love those wheels, epic car freakin 7l LS
Wheels look great 👍🏼
Loved the oem+ build
I know you guys are down playing the dyno numbers but I think for what the combination is those are great numbers and this is probably a very fun car to drive 👍
Thank you for trying a fix for the Pontiac rear end, I personally think its an improvement. Another option is OEM with the Silvia badge. SA plate holders too.
The new tail lights look good but me personally I just love the look of the stock tail lights. That’s just my opinion
I like the new tail lights
