Add to that even though the S15 came out in 1999 it was basically the same technology as the SR20DET S13 which is a 20 year old car.

I looked around for an S15 before deciding to buy an 86. After looking hard at car classifieds online I could never find a decent manual unmodified example that was sub 100,000 km's. If Nissan still sold them new it would be another story though.
Agreed @Wise

Same here in NZ. Mine had over 200,000km on it when I sold it. They either seem to be unmodified and high kms like mine was or low kms but badly modified.
