The S13 Silvia, introduced in mid-1988 for the 1989 model year, was immensely popular in Japan. The Silvia name was no longer used on export models, however; European models were now known as 200SX. Following industry trends, the S13 Silvia switched to relampable fixed headlights. Projector optics were offered as an option.

The Silvia fastback was discontinued, replaced by a new model, the Nissan 180SX. This left only the notchback coupe. A convertible was briefly offered soon after the start of production, but it was never popular, perhaps due to high cost - 3.25 million Yen in 1988 ($27,500 USD).

The S13 was one of the first uses of Nissan’s multi-link rear suspension, the technology of which was previewed in concept cars in previous years, such as the Nissan MID-4. It also offered a four-wheel steering system for the first time, known as HICAS-II. In 1990, HICAS-II would be updated and renamed SuperHICAS. The S13 also saw the introduction of a viscous-type limited slip differential (LSD) for some models.

S13 Silvias were initially powered by the CA18DE and CA18DET engines carried over from the end of S12 production, with an intercooler added to the CA18DET for a slight increase in power. In 1990, for the 1991 model year, the SR20DE and SR20DET engines debuted, offering improvements across the board in power and torque, due to increased displacement and a more efficient turbocharger than the CA.

The S13 Silvia was discontinued after the 1993 model year, in favor of the new S14 chassis design. In 1998, the S13 Silvia was resurrected. A variant was produced by Kid’s Heart for Nissan called the Sileighty, which featured the 180SX body with the front end from the Silvia. The Sileighty style was originally created by Japanese enthusiasts for their own 180SXs, and is still a common modification for the 180SX and 240SX fastback.

The S13 Silvia was the first S-series car to use the J’s (Jack’s), Q’s (Queen’s), K’s (King’s) naming for the different trim levels. The J’s was the base model with a very basic interior, little standard equipment, and 14? steel wheels. The Q’s model is middle-of-the-line. They received many electric options and an optional LSD. The K’s received the turbocharged engines, along with all the upgrades of the Q’s.

On top of the K’s and Q’s models, The Club Selection and Diamond Selection packages came with specific options bundled together; for example, all K’s Club Selections came with projector headlights, a rear spoiler, and aluminum wheels. All the names used are references to the suits and face cards of English playing cards.

There also exists the rare Silvia A’s “Almighty” (???????), introduced in late 1992. Confusingly, the Almighty fits roughly into the middle of the range. The only available engine was the naturally-aspirated SR20DE.

Over the last few years, drifting has become the victim of its own success. Often described as the figure skating of the automotive world, drifting started off as a relatively cheap sport. But as more and more people started turning their tyres, that once cheap and enjoyable sport has become far less accessible and, for some, far less friendly.

Those at the competitive end can no longer lock a diff, fit some adjustable suspension and have a good day battling their mates. The sponsorship dollars now mean those friends are fierce rivals, and the championship points ensure a healthy battle.

Behind all that seriousness there is still a small group of people who have continued with what they originally set out to do: have fun. While the majority of these guys no longer attend competitive events, a handful do. One such driver is Garage Dori’s Karl Skewes

Karl has been competing in the D1NZ drift championship since 2003, always with the intent of having a good time, rather than trying to take the title. His original vehicle of choice was a very well-used (and abused) AA60 Toyota Carina. In its competition days the Carina went through a variety of set-ups, including no less than five separate engine combination. Undertaking pretty much everything himself, the car was built and run on a tiny budget, allowing Karl the freedom to not worry about how many times he spun out and ate the kitty litter at Pukekohe Park Raceway’s sweeper.

Two seasons of going sideways over ripple strips and diff heads smacking the floor eventually saw the retirement of the vehicle. Instead of following everyone else and joining the Nissan bandwagon, Karl wanted to keep it old school and stay true to the Toyota brand.

Despite knowing a naturally aspirated engine would never be truly competitive, a hard-hitting 4A-GE was the engine Karl wanted to run with. So the search began for a suitable vehicle to drop one into. With AE86s and 85s holding their values, Karl chose to take the path less trodden: he bought himself a 1985 AE70 Corolla DX.

Finding a suitable shell proved to be a harder task than anticipated, and resulted in one being “plucked from the bosom of the South Island,” as Karl puts it. On its way up to Auckland the car was dropped in to Tim Lloyd of Octane Automotive who fitted it with a strut tower to strut tower roll cage. The cage itself was constructed with rallying in mind, in case Karl ever decided to try his hand at gravel bashing. Once caged, the Corolla went into West Auckland’s Tama Autos, which was to become the vehicle’s spiritual home from here on in. Tama Autos is an automotive and panelbeating shop by day, and a Toyota modder’s heaven by night, so it wasn’t long before the shell was painted and awaiting assembly. During the panel beating, twin round headlights from an earlier DX were fitted. You would think that fitting them would have been a simple job, but in fact, two new guards, a bonnet and grill, all from the twin headlight model, were required for the job. To fit decent rubber under the car all four guards were lipped and the metal stretched outwards as far as possible.

Having spent a fair amount of time in Japan over the last few years, Karl had managed to pick up all sorts of interesting bits and pieces not available locally. Most other parts were sourced locally, the majority from various Toyota wrecking friends around the country.
