I like the looks of it. I'd keep the CB7, but I'm quite biased!
The thought of a RHD Silvia is pretty cool, though.
They aren't really great cars. People love them because they're cheap and have potential... but they're basically Japan's Mustang. I've never driven one myself, so I'm not speaking from my own experience, but I've heard a lot of people say that the build quality is very flimsy. The suspension design is also pretty lousy. When talking about putting the underguts of a 240sx on my 3rd gen to make it RWD, I had a guy on 3geez... who owned BOTH a 3G and a 240sx... tell me that the Accord's suspension is far superior.
Regardless of car preference, I would be wary of getting someone else's project. My CB7 is my daily driver. I put 1200 miles a week on it. However, there are a TON of things wrong with that thing!
