there is no "SILVIA" turbo.

if it's a DOHC, sure keep it.

if it has high miles, then it's not worth it. swap it. you got plenty of choices.

SR20, RB20, RB25, RB26, LS-1, VG, VQ....sky is the limit

Replace the tc rod bushings (they usually turn to ****). Go over all of your suspension connection points and repair where needed.

Look at your framerails and repair where needed.

Balljoints and tierods too.

Make it operate correctly in "stock" mode. Then build on top of there.

What are your goals with this car?
