IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 117 Member No.: 57 Joined: Oct 23rd 2002 Location: Update Profile | pros: impressive performance in hi rev (4k-7k) it wins in most of the races in 80's when it first introduced. cons: produce too much pollutant.. OPEC forsee this problem and urged Mazda to overcome this prob in 80's. Mazda did it but with the sacrifice of the engine performance. anyhow.. u won't get much speed when ur rev is below 3k like normal cars. as Bunta boy said.. the engine maintenance might burn a hole in ur poocket. Overall: Fine good looking car with impressive performance, u know u want 1 too  |

Unregistered | During Road Racing battle between Mako Satou & Takumi Fujiwara on Mt. Usui Sayuki was always helping her navigate Mt. Usui. I have 2 questions to ask 1. I seen Mako Satou driving technique that we want but less of Sayuki driving a car. It seems to me that we won't be able to see her drive a car (Nissan Sil-80) at all especially on all the Initial D stage total bummer dudes. Do you think Sayuki deserved to drive a car (Nissan Sil-80) on Mt. Usui? & Why? 2. On Initial D I seen a lot of Road Racing team like the speedstars, the Redsuns, the Night Kids, the Emperor (from second stage) & many others can drive the corners on the Mountain passes without a navigator. The one thing I don't understand is How come all the Road Racing team like the speedstars, the Redsuns, the Night Kids, the Emperor (from second stage) & many others were able to drive without a navigator but not Impact Blue (Mako Satou & Sayuki)? |

That Sil-80 needs a navigator because then Mako doesn't have to look at the conditions of the road, she can concentrate on drifting and the car, that means she can drive faster than without a navigator. It's one of an advantage of having a navigator. |

Unregistered | just to keep in theme with some of the questions that have already been posted - 1. How many spokes does each wheel have on the blue sil-80?? 2. How much does each wheel weigh (in Kg) 3. Of what compounds are the wheels made, and does anybody have a picture of their molecular structure? |
