1 1991 Nissan Silvia KPS13 - Drift Spec. 400 bhp. Burgundy Metallic. Basic Info Registration date 12/1991 Chassis Number KPS Mileage Color Burgundy Metallic. OTR Price 9650 Detailed description As with most of the best Japanese sports cars, the PS13 and KPS13 Silvias were only made for the Japanese market. The KPS13 is considered to be the finest of the Silvias for tuning. Weighing in at only 1,170 kg as standard, this model has the enviable acolade of having been successfully used from the humble beginnings of the drift scene in Japan and is still used with strong success in the D1 Professional Grand Prix of Japan by some of the most successful teams - a true testament to how special these cars are...a true "Old Skool" drift classic!! Modified versions are also still used for time attack battles in Japan & for fast track use. Indeed, there are KPS13's that have lapped the infamous Tsukuba circuit in Japan at close to 1 minute flat and one of these holds the lap record for the Tsukuba 1000 (smaller) circuit. Seriously quick for a 2 wheel drive machine! On this example, complete preparation has been carried out as follows: Engine: A Greddy Trust T518 Z turbo is mated to the engine via a tubular stainless steel manifold. Camshafts are HKS Step II's of 256 degrees and 264 degrees duration for the Inlet & Exhaust respectively. On this engine there is no timing belt - SR20 engines have timing chains as standard.to take care of added fueling are 555cc injectors, uprated Nismo fuel pump & a rechipped Z32 ECU. Boost is taken care of by a Greddy Profec B solenoid controller. A Greddy front mount intercooler is fitted complete with an alloy hard pipe kit. Also fitted is a double capacity racing radiator. Induction kit is a Blitz Sus Power unit. Exhaust is a full stainless steel system complete with large diameter downpipe, catalyst replacement pipe and a single silencer large bore system. An oil catch tank is employed to maximise spark plug performance. Spark plugs are Greddy Iridium racing items. The cylinder head gasket has of course been uprated to a metal item and the cam followers replaced with uprated items, to cope with the increased load from the higher 1

2 lift camsfafts. Running at a relatively low 0.9 bar of boost it's making around 350 bhp as is. Take this up to around 1.3 bar and it'll make around 420 bhp. Serious power for a car of this size and weight!!! Driveline & Brakes: Wheels are 17" Buddy Club P1 lightweight forged alloy racing items fitted with Advan Neuva sports tyres (In good condition. Note that locks and key are also included (Key is hidden inside the car now - for security) The shift linkage is a short shift item. Clutch is an uprated heavy duty twin plate type - combined with a lightweight flywheel. A 2 way Limited slip differential is also fitted. The front discs and callipers have been uprated to Silvia S15 spec R 4 piston items. Braided hoses are also employed at each corner. The ABS has been disabled to allow the handbrake to be used for drifting - although this will be enabled whilst we prepare the car in UK, to allow maximum safely - as well as enabling the car to pass a UK MOT of course. Suspension has been uprated with Apexi N1 Evolution drift spec. coilovers. These are rated in Japan as some of the best specialist built coilover shocks. The front units also have camber adjustable mounts, so that negative camber can be dialed in to make the front grip more. Although originally equipped with Hicas 3 wheel steer, in the interests of maximum control, this has been replaced with a Hicas cancelling bar. Interior: A Kenwood CD/Radio unit is fitted - combined with uprated speakers. An alloy shift knob is also fitted. On the steering column is an HKS boost gauge. The steering wheel has been replaced with a Momo "Race" item. Pedals also have alloy covers on them. For fun, there's a "Snap On" ignition key, which looks much like a screwdriver. In addition there's the original "Silvia" key too. The Greddy Profec B's boost controller is located within easy reach. Note the clever digital speedometer and head up display on the windscreen. The seats at the front aren't original, but actually R32 Skyline GT-R items, which give more support than the standard items. If preferred we can also supply full Recaro style bucket seats from 250 each - fitted - through our sister website: Bodywork: Considering this car is now 14 years old, it's in awesome condition! This is not an original colour. In fact, the car used to be red underneath. The paint job is of excellent quality too. The front bumper is a Vertex item. Side skirts are original option items. There's a full carbon GT wing also, to give the car a mean look and assist rear end grip at higher speeds. It's fully adjustable for rake too, of course. The headlights fitted are not original, but square lenzed items, which give the front a meaner look too! Note that the rear arches have been rolled out too, to allow for larger wheels and more track than standard, as well as lower suspension. Original factory equipment includes: Rare electric glass sunroof, ABS (currently disabled for drifting and track work), remote controlled mirrors with retract mode, electric windows, power 2

3 steering, climate control air conditioning, fitted mats, remote controlled boot and filler cap release, adjustable steering column, etc. Auction grade of this car is RA-1 (Copy of auction sheet is available). The "RA" denotes that the car has had a small accident only (Both front wings have been replaced, that's all. Grade 1 is due to the many modifications this car's received! As the bodywork has been lovingly resprayed, condition is excellent, with only a few stone chips to report. These are shown in pictures, but will be repaired as part of preparation when the car reaches the UK.Interior is in excellent condition considering the age of the car. Note that there is a small wear mark/ hole on the driver's seat. The original 3rd brake light located on the rear parcel shelf has been removed too. A replacement can be sourced if needed, inexpensively. Test Drive: This modified Silvia drives very, very well, with excellent throttle response, very strong power with boost coming on from around 3,500 rpm and going all the way to the redline, drama free brakes, good clutch and most importantly - excellent handling, with easy, slow driftability. Needless to say, it sounds like a racecar - with the engine modifications fitted! There's no dump valve fitted. Letting off the throttle, the chattering of the wastegate is heard. Apply the throttle and as the turbo comes on, there's a characteristic bark from the exhaust indicative of a tuned SR20 engine! From the exhaust there are flames on occasion too. Video clip: Was difficult to do, but this car was driven one handed and drifted / tested whilst shooting a short (17MB) video clip. The clip was made to simply show the power delivery and level of performance this car has. Please only request this if you have a genuinely serious interest in this car. Examples as good as this are very, very rare - even in Japan! This is also the most sought after shape, as featured on Initial-D Japanese drift cartoons! Condition is excellent - this is the best PS13 coupe we've come across hence the reason we bought it - Spec is similar to our very own S15 drift project car! Judging by the attention our video director - Steve Brooks' blue PS13 generates when appearing at shows in the UK (it's not as modified as this...yet!) this will be a car that generates a LOT of interest. Expect to see a full feature of this car in J-Tuner magazine, issue 11!!!!!! Priced at 9,650 OTR complete with new MOT, minor stonechip repairs as detailed, together with a new carpet fitted, spare wheel, wheel repair, etc. complete with 6 month's road tax and full UK registration. Comprehensive warranty included. Now completed, ready to register and available for viewing (By appointment please) Contact us for full details of how to reserve this unique KPS13 for yourself.

49 How the Newera System Works (1). Starting with your inquiry, we provide a quote or communication, so that we are clear on just what you are after. We ask for detailed information from you, so we can provide an accurate quotation from the beginning. If you are inquiring about a car from stock, steps (2) and (4) are not required. (2). When sourcing to order, our quotation is based on your requirements. As long as your budget is sufficient for the car youre after & the car is likely to be available, we will be prepared to find the car you order, or better. Remember: even if you budget too much, it doesnt matter. We operate a system of supplying the best car we can find, plus a set fee of 900. If we can buy your car for a low price, then you make the corresponding saving. (3). When you are ready to proceed, we ask for a deposit (& completed order form, if applicable). The deposit is usually 1,000. If you want a car worth over 10K OTR, then the deposit is 1,500. The deposit is fully refundable without question, should you for any reason need to cancel before a car is bought on your behalf. If you are reserving a car from stock the deposit is refundable less costs and time incurred provided you cancel 4 working days before shipment from Japan. (4). Miguel, our buyer keeps you informed via periodically whilst searching for your car. Sometimes it can take weeks, even months to find the right car. In addition to Miguel attending the major Tokyo auctions daily, we have buyers searching daily throughout Japan for the car you want. No news simply means we havent found it yet. We dont buy the first car which comes along. It must meet or exceed your requirements whilst not costing more than the OTR price we agreed, though it frequently costs less. (5). As soon as available, we will you up to 30 detailed photographs, showing all aspects of your car. We also include a detailed description. Of course, total OTR price is known at this stage, so we let you know. Cars are insured from the time theyre bought, to the time they are completed & collected by you in UK. (6). Usually, boats are available every 2-3 weeks, from Japan to UK (Southampton). 49

50 We arrange for your car to be shipped on the first vessel available. Around the time the car is shipped, we ask for the second instalment. Typically this is approximately 60% of the cars OTR total cost. Note that the car we supply to you is fully insured at all times prior to you collecting it. (7) We arrange booking of the SVA test in advance - shortly after the car departs, so that the car can be tested as soon as possible upon arrival to UK. We also inform our UK agent of your full contact details and information on everything which needs doing, to make sure the car wil be presented in beautiful condition. (8). Shipping takes 5 weeks. Around 2 weeks before arrival, we ask you for the final instalment, to cover Import duties, VAT, shipping, UK conversions, testing, registraton etc. (9). Before the car arrives, we arrange customs clearance, etc. so the car neednt spend un-necessary time waiting at the docks upon arrival. It usually takes 3-4 days for cars to be unloaded and cleared by UK customs. (10). The car is sent from Southampton to our UK agents premises in Canterbury aboard a car transporter. Upon arrival there, it is SVA converted, derestricted, SVA tested & MOTd (If applicable). All minor cosmetic work required (e.g. bumper scratches) is carried out. The car is fully valetted just before you collect it. (11). The car comes with 6 months road tax and is fully registered in your name as the first UK keeper. If you have a suitable private number plate youd like to go on the car, we can also arrange this, provided you have a DVLA retention certificate. N.B.
