"Driving this JDM masterpiece can be a transformative experience. With enough power to conquer any road it encounters and the kind of sleek lines normally reserved for chorus line girls, the Silvia turns heads wherever it goes."—forzamotorsport.net[1]
The 2000 Nissan Silvia Spec-R - abbreviated as "Silvia '00" or "Silvia S15"[2] - is a rear-wheel drive sports car by Nissan.
It appears in all main series titles.
Synopsis[]
The Spec-R is the highest model designation of the S15 Silvia, the last model generation of sports cars based on Nissan's S platform.
Similar to the previous top-of-the-line S14 model, it was equipped with several aerodynamic upgrades and powered by the two litre turbocharged 'SR20DET' engine with power increased to 250 hp (186 kW). The manual transmission of previous models has been replaced by a six-speed version.
It is also shorter and lighter than its predecessor, the Nissan Silvia K's Aero, as evident by having 40 lb (18 kg) less weight. In addition, it is based on a more balanced chassis due to having only 51% of its weight at the front axle.
The S15 Silvia was produced from 1999 to 2002 and only available in Australasia.
Performance[]
The Silvia Spec-R is a nimble sports car that can easily master corners and has a potent engine for its class.
Upgraded[]
In Forza Horizon 3, the Horizon Edition variant with the S1 class upgrade preset offers 748 hp (558 kW) and 565 ft·lb (766 N·m) of torque. It combines a high power output with a decent handling tune, allowing it to drift at sharp angles and regain speed quickly. It can also perform well in grip-based race events but requires good throttle management skills for competitive racing.

Its S1 900 upgrade preset comes with the 2.6L I6 - TT engine swap and a Rocket Bunny Widebody Kit. The design consists of a brass paintjob, black rims and a carbonfiber hood.

- It is featured with an incorrect torque specification in the Forza series, as it produces 225 ft·lb (305 N·m) of torque in real life.[3]
- The rear wing mounts on the rear bumper of the Rocket Bunny Widebody Kit are not used. Instead, the rear wing is mounted on the trunk.
- The front bumper lacks fog lamps that were standard for the real life Spec-R.[4]
