It depends.
Where do you live at?
Do you plan on converting it yourself or paying a shop to put it on?

just to clarify, s13 is a chassis code.  It encompasses: the 180sx (all years), the Silvia (s13 gen), the 200sx (europe's s13 gen), and the 240sx (89-93).

I'll assume you mean the s13 silvia conversion, which can be found a numerous import shops... how bout u use that search function?  You'll find a ton of info ranging from install shops to part importers to install tips.  Search is your friend <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

They stopped selling em due to not good enough profits. Or Sam doesn't like me <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/blush.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':blush:'> .

In Japan, the hatchback model still had the pop-up headlights.. only the coupes and sil-eighty came with single piece design.

And is it my understanding that sil-eighty's weren't actually made by Nissan?

i don't get the point of this post. Nobody mentioned anything about hatchbacks. And I am not sure if Sil-80s were or were nto produced. I have heard they were very limited with some sort of "drift" suspension, but that is a rumor, don't know if its true.

I think everyone knows the hatchback, otherwise known as 180SX came with flip-ups.

EDIT: BTW I love what you did to your taillights assuming thats your car. It looks real nice on a red car. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

They were in fact made in very limited number. Nissan's attempt to respond to japanese car fad culture. It is pretty well documented, you might want to search on it.
