Overview

Overview:
Nissan Silvia S15 Spec R
SR20DET 6 Speed Manual


The Nissan Silvia S15 Spec R is one of the most iconic JDM cars ever built, and this example is a real head-turner. Freshly imported and awaiting its first UK owner, this S15 combines rarity, performance, and style in one irresistible package. Finished in Factory AR2 Red with Aero styling and sitting on Advan Racing GT wheels, it looks every bit the part of a true driver’s car. With only 68 ever produced in this exact specification, this is an opportunity to own a very special piece of Nissan history.


Powered by the legendary SR20DET engine paired with a 6-speed Spec R gearbox, this car comes equipped with a host of high-quality performance upgrades including a Blitz radiator, HPi oil cooler, HKS induction kit, Tomei tubular manifold, and a 3” HKS exhaust system. Suspension and braking have also been addressed with aftermarket coilovers, a D-Max front anti-roll bar, grooved front brakes, and Endless pads, ensuring it handles as impressively as it performs. The interior is equally well-presented, featuring a factory black trim, Defi boost gauge, Greddy boost controller, Nismo clocks, and tinted windows for a purposeful finish.


This S15 has been brought up to a high standard with a professional £4,500 respray and thorough servicing including NGK plugs, Lucas oils, and new filters. It has been undersealed and cavity waxed for extra protection, making it a solid investment. While graded as an auction R for a minor, well-repaired rear panel impact, the car presents beautifully and is ready to enjoy. With a current MOT until the 22nd of September 2026 and recent servicing by JDM Garage, this S15 Spec R is offered with three months warranty, extendable to six or twelve. Viewing is strictly by appointment, contact us today to arrange a closer look at this rare and desirable S15.
