What we been doing in Class

Over the last few weeks we have covered basic stuff like using the command tool to learn how to find your IP, Ping others IPs to find out if they are connected to the internet or not etc.

We have also covered brochures and obviously learnt how to make blogs.

The Nissan Silvia

The Nissan Silvia is the name given to a series of Nissan sport coupes that has roots going back to 1964. Aside from a few models, nearly every Silvia has been based on a version of the Nissan S platforms. The more recent Silvias have become popular race cars in the sport of drifting.
The Silvia is a long-running line of sport coupes based on the Nissan S platforms. Although recent models have shared this chassis with other vehicles produced by Nissan (most notably the European 200SX and North American 240SX in the S13 and S14 generations, and 180SX in the Japanese market)

The Nissan Skyline (Facts)

The Nissan Skyline (スカイライン in Japanese) is a line of compact cars originally produced by the Japanese  starting in 1957 and subsequently by Nissan. It is currently available in either coupe, or sedan body styles, with the wagon form being dropped in 1989 with the introduction of the R32 platform.

The 11th generation Skyline (V35) was a major turning point for the nameplate, as it dropped the Skyline's trademark characteristics such as the straight-6 engine and turbocharging, eventually separated the GT-R into its own line, and moved to V6-engined era, this decision which extended to all later Skylines

There are many skylines now from the R30 to the new and improved R35s
