0k dude, Silvia is the name of the 240sx in Japan. S13/RPS13 = 89-94 coupe/HB
180sx= 95-? HB
S14=95-98 coupe (there were 2 types of S14's, the zenki and the kouki, the kouki have the more aggressive headlights)
S15=99-current? coupe

180sx's were made in Japan from '88-'98. S13 Silvias from '88-'93, then they switched to the S14. 180sx's look completely identicle to all years, '89-'93, 240sx hatchs. '89-'94 coupes look like Silvias with 180sx front ends. That's why the JDM S13 Silvia conversion is so popular for coupes. It's also very poopular for hatches though which with this conversion are called Sil-Eighties. Half Silvia half 180sx.
