Nobuteru Taniguchi's Iconic Silvia S15.<\/p>\n
Per SPEEDHUNTERS:
\n\u201cThe S15 began as an EV1 Lightning Yellow Spec R and was originally a Kei Office demo car before being sold off for use by Taniguchi-san and Car Make T&E. The fitment of a T&E Original Aero bodykit and Ganador mirrors marked the beginning of the iconic Taniguchi style.
\nAt the 2001 Tokyo Auto Salon, the car reappeared with a red open-door respray and the now famous red T&E headlight covers, a look that was finalized throughout the 2001 D1GP series with the addition of Craft Square side mirrors and a staggered 17-inch\/18-inch set of AVS Model 5 wheels. Performance was handled by a combination of HKS, Nismo and ORC engine and drivetrain products, whilst the suspension and braking consisted of HKS coilovers and Swift springs, with a full JIC adjustable arm set and Project Mu brakes.
\nAfter the 2001 D1GP win, the Silvia was retired from track use and served as a more demo-oriented car for T&E, HKS, Yokohama Wheel (and in more recent years, Yashio Factory). The exterior received a once over, with new red paint to completely hide the original EV1 yellow. A more aggressive T&E Vertex Lang bodykit was also fitted, while updated 19-inch Yokohama AVS Model T6 wheels - 19\u00d79.5-inch front and 19\u00d710.5-inch rear - completed the look. Additionally, a set of red eyelids on the headlights, a low boot wing and T&E LEDs were introduced.\u201d<\/p>\n
