Iijima’s Silvia looks understated, but the engine has many upgrades: Mines ECU, ARC intercooler, HKS oil cooler, auxiliary injectors and EVC, an R32 fuel pump, Nismo reinforced clutch, Tanabe front pipe, and Blitz stainless muffler.
Coilovers are essential.
Suspension
The Blitz muffler has a great sound.
Shocks
Owner’s comment: “Nothing special, but I recommend the coilovers. I run G-Grid tires at the front and RE71s at the rear.”

Wheels
Dial in the handling with suspension.
Saito’s Silvia looks aggressive with aero mirrors and a Cefiro grille. A tuned muffler and HKS turbo filter add performance.
The Cefiro grille stands out.

Homemade Odyssey exhaust modification
Akagawa owns this subtly styled black Laurel. He made a custom exhaust, using the center section of an Odyssey muffler as the tailpipe. He is also proud of a 300-watt subwoofer installed in the trunk.
