Haven't listened to it, but the title makes it look rap-ish yet it uses the Japanese name for the (1st generation) 240SX... Silvia 13 or S13. Makes me a bit scared to even give it a listen (ever heard Japanese rap :eek:!?)

Now if it were a Skyline GT-R rap, I'd be all for it ;).

S13 and S14 is not a japanese anything. It's Nissan's chassis code for the 240sx/180sx and Silvia/200sx.

It's american rap.

The 200SX used the S110, S10 and S12 chassis, not the 13 or 14. In North America, only the 240SX used the S13 and S14 platform. In other regions, the S13 and S14 (and S15) platform was used for the 200SX, but not here.

Also, being that it's Nissan and developed in Japan, I'd certainly think it was a Japanese something ;).

I wasn't referring the the USDM 200SX which is an entirely different car than the 240sx. Overseas the 240sx is the 180sx in hatchback form, the Silvia/200sx in coupe form.

I am not looking for a discourse in the other differences between the two models, I am full aware of them as not only have I owned a 98 SE for quite a few years now, and I run DriftKAT.com. This was just about a rap that has nothing do really do with Japan.
