While this Silvia might look like a time attack car, and is detailed enough to be a show car - it's primary focus is the quarter mile. After being inspired by the drag cars of Japan, George and Theo Spartalis of South Australia's GT Autosound set out to create one of the world's quickest S15's. Originally established as a car audio shop, GT Autosound is now known as one of Australia's premiere Silvia tuning shops and they have experience building S-chassis for every application.
Combining the build quality of pro drift car with the focus of a drag car was one of the George and Theo's goals for the car, and they've certainly accomplished that.
The engine setup is one of the most important things on a drag car, and a good place to start. The S15's 2.2 liter SR20 is built for reliability over all-out power, but still manages to produce about 650 horsepower to the wheels.
Finally a fully integrated C-West wide-body with R34 GT-R Bayside Blue paint makes the S15 look a bit like a JGTC car as it rips down the quarter mile to the tune of 9.23@148MPH (on slicks).
