The Sileighty is a S13 180sx with a Silvia front. It was created by people that owned and drifted the 180sx. When drifters crashed, as most do, it was a lot cheaper to put on a Silvia front then a 180 front due to the differences in the fronts. For example, the 180sx has flip-up lights, and the mechanics for that were a lot harder to replace, and they also weighed more. So it became an issue of having a lighter car, also. Sileighty's were produced for a limited time, but I don't think it was acctually by Nissan, but rather some other company that made them for Nissan?!? (Could someone correct me on that?), Hope that helped, but if you have any more questions, go to the 240sx or Silvia forums, they know more then me!
