The Nissan S12. The only Silvia to house five engines as options from the factory. Then there was the FJ-powered Grand Prix model that was made available to the markets in Europe. In the States, the SE model sported the VG in its last two years. In Japan, they had the RS-X, powered by the FJ, which was replaced by the CA18DET in its last two years. Not only were these top tier models, they were quite limited and are each highly sought after. Going further, the Full White was known to be the most elusive model produced of the S12 chassis. This can no longer be said as a new model has been found and proving to be just as coveted and most certainly as rare as the Full White: the Champion.

A little known model with even less documentation, the Nissan S12 Silvia Champion is indeed one that will catch the eyes how shown that the S12 was indeed a platform that was far from being the ignored sister.

The Nissan Silvia Champion…

looks like a normal turbo...but then again knowing nissan, back in the day they loved sticking big surprises in small packages just like any of us with an se, rs-x, or ca turbo can tell you.

it didnt work at first.....and its decided im geting my seats and shit redone in leather! Was tge headliner like that too?

I've seen grey leather on mk2. It might have been optional.

The swedish and german ca18et had 122hp and the rest had 135hp as far as I know. The cams + few emission parts make the difference.

What's this about double white option being really rare?

It's a Mark II RS-X thing... it's called "FULL-WHITE".

Okay, got it. I was just confused because my SE is double white.
