Nissan Silvia S15
Well, those are the one's I've owned at least..
2 NSX's, 3 Skylines, 2 RSX's, 6 350Z's, and 3 S15's.

Well I can offer further advice. If your looking for Turbo's and good intercoolers, get a 350Z, and as for conversions, all MM's are good for are head and tail lights, the bodies are too wide for Front Clips.
