Not to flame on you too much man, but how can you like something and not know what it is?
Sil-Eighty=Silvia front end on a 180sx rear (us 240 hatch) Make sense? Welcome to the board!

I don't think it would be called a one-via beause we dont have the 180sx front or the silvia rear. we have the 240sx coupe

Can I still call it chips ahoy if there are only 49 chips and not the 50 they say are on each cookie?

0mg!! lighten up already!! it was a joke. if u wanna get down to it, no we don't have 180SX's and no, we don't have silvias. i was just pointing out the irony that what some people do in japan for style, ours have the same appearance from the factory. what? now r u gonna tell me that S13 240 front ends don't look anything like 180's or S13 coupe rears don't look like those of S13 silvias? hell, while ur at it, why don't u tell nissan they ***ked up their naming convention w/the 180SX once they dropped in the SR20DET (2.0L instead of 1.8L, right? ). jeez, guess they shoulda made it the "200SX" after that... damn, mr "nissan-professor-must-correct-everyone-and-nit-pick", give it a rest...

nope. i'm pretty sure that in order for the 'ahoy' to be a fitting designation, there is a stipulation that states that there MUST be at least 50 chips in each cookie...
