Hey howz it everyone?
I'm buyin a car soon and I dunt know what car I should buy?!
I always have liked Nissan Skyline's but only type I can afford is Skyline GTS (R32), I just loved the looks and all but my love for Skyline is gettin old. I have seen lots of Skylines around in Christchurch, New Zealand but I hardly ever see Nissan Silvia.

I look at some cars and I happen to see a 1994 Nissan Silvia Q's but I couldn'tafford it so I decided to go down some years 1991/1992 Nissan Silvia S13 with **SR20-DE** Engine.
(Affordable for a student)

~1998cc EFI DOHC 16-valve 4cyl
~119kW@6400rpm (108kW FWD)
188Nm@4800rpm (178Nm FWD)
~-RWD 5-speed - 4 sp auto -FWD 5-speed

And I think 1992-1993 Nissan Skyline GTS have **RB20-DE** Engine. ( Affordable for me)

~1998cc EFI DOHC 24-valve 6 cyl
~116kW@6400rpm
~184Nm@5200rpm
~-RWD 5spd -4spd auto

I have study on these two cars but I am still a newbie, I dunt know what car gives better perfomance.

One thing I know is Skyline is heavier cuz of the engine so Silvia is faster but my knowledge tells me it has a weaker engine?!

This is going to be my first car and I dont know what I should look for in a car... They both have similar horse power and both same price that I can afford.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I get my restricted license (on Auto), I can only drive Auto but I want to drive Manual but 85% people I know failed restricted license several times. I need a car asap and I dunt have time to learn how to drive well in Manual. (I mean well as in slow so I can pass my license, I like to travel fast.)

If I pass Auto restricted license I decided to get a car that day but it has to be an auto if I fail I will sit in restricted next time.
( I dunt know anyone who would lend me a working Manual car so.. yea)

Anywayz sorry for talkin s-h-i-t , I dunt know if i do get an auto is it worth modifiying it or is it waste of money on an auto car?

So EVERYONE, GIVE ME YOUR INFO AND OPINION on what car I should get for my first car, 1991-1992 Nissan Silvia (S13) or Skyline GTS (R32).

I think Skyline GTS is not worth money because it is not GTS-T or GTR or GT4, I like the look of Skyline, quiet SEXY!

Silvia is not that good lookin as Skyline however faster...

Skylines are not heavier because of the engine, they're just heavier. I voted for the Skyline in your poll but that's before I realised that you were looking at non-turbo models. Why buy a non turbo Skyline?? They're SOOOO slow. I drive a S13 Q's Silvia in Japan and it isn't too bad, and I've driven a R32 Skyline GTS-T and it is outright fast. If you want the cheapest thing you can get, get a Silvia K's with a CA18DET or the SR20DET. They both handle fantastic and can make a lot of power for little money. Just PLEASE don't waste your time on a naturally aspirated Skyline.
