Yes, they share the same floorplan, engines, & running gear. From S14 onwards, the 200SX just became a rebadged Silvia.

Had a bloke at work who worshiped Silvia's. He bored the pants off me with what he was going to do to it, Yawn, Yawn. He did f*ck all to it appart from nail a piece of plywood to the front bumper, painted it black to look like carbon fibre ?????????? The rest of the car was rusty as hell, and he wanted to make a Sti/Evo style rear spoiler for it out of.......... you guest it, Plywood.
He's one of these guy's that keeps on saying he'll buy this or that to beat you with. For 5 years he kept saying he was going to by a skyline, get it chiped to 400bhp and blow me away. Yeh right, I'm still waiting. He then went out and bought a Suzuki Ignis sport, then proceed to tell me that on a back road it would wipe the floor with my then Focus RS. He's 40 odd aswell. Just goes to show that old age doesn't bring wisdom.
