2008 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V

they dont have the interior pics or even a spec v on the nissan site, so oh well.

I like it.

It’s not the prettiest car, but I don’t think it’s butt ugly. Gotta see it in person.

The thing with designing new cars today is that they have to look new. The new Sentra definitely looks new.

And don’t forget to convert it to RWD. Oh wait that would require a new chassis, which means a new car :anal

Did you guys actually read the posted article though?

Allow me to illustrate a few points that might have been missed:

…specially tuned electric power steering (EPS)…

This might be a bad thing for a performance car.

…new high output version of the QR25DE 4-cylinder engine, with extensive modifications to the top end of the engine developed exclusively for the SE-R Spec V…

Extensive in what sense?

…reinforced connecting rods and 8-counterweight crankshaft to achieve a higher redline limit of 6,800 rpm…

Stronger connecting rods mean more power in a turbo application, so hooray for that. The fully counterweighed crankshaft should eliminate the need for the balance shaft as well, and also make for more potent turbo power.

…is equipped with higher rate springs, shocks and bushings; 225/45WR17 uni-directional high performance tires…and a unique trunk mounted “V” brace…

Tires are actually wider than current Spec V stock tires. And a V-brace in the trunk? This I would like to see.

Inside the Sentra SE-R cabin are a number of unique SE-R features, including…an additional two-gauge meter pack. These two additional gauges, canted towards the driver, provide information on oil pressure and acceleration/deceleration g-force.

Why the fuck do you need a G-meter? How many people use them in the R34?

Anyway, some of the new features, specifically engine-wise, sound very cool. Some of them sound mostly useless. I guess we’ll have to see what Nissan brings when the new car is released. :smiley:

yah come spring im going to go on a test drive day, i want to try a STI, new spec v, g35(if they let me), and IS300.

hmmm, well i have to say im suprised, i acutally dont mind it. first things i thought when i saw it was alitima ser, cept smaller. the rear is quite a nice change, the front i would like a little more agressive but i can’t wait to see the interior cause the base sentra has a pretty decent one. and red seat belts :partyman: haha

well the little bit more power is nice,and with some nice mods hopefully these cars make good power, and well who knows with the turbo kit it could be great.

I would totally consider buying one, cept not in yellow, and they will prob be 25ish all said and done so id rahter buy a used WRX. but thats just me

I like the way it looks. looks very clean and fresh and has some nice lines.

More power, bigger brakes, bigger tires. Whats not to like.

yeah! :smiley: its growing on me more and more everytime.First time I seen the titan,altima and the other generation specs,ooo and the 350 I absolutely hated them…But now they are pimped in my mind.It just takes me a while for new styles to click with me,maybe im slow. :rolleyes:

interior looks pretty nice, I like the seats and the semi-console shifter is different.

Still don’t like the exterior, but I want to see one in person, some cars look ass in pics then good in person. Maybe it will grow on me

Shifter sucks balls looks like a Civic Si Hatchback, my biggest dislike.

haha Different strokes for different folks. Thats one of my fav parts :slight_smile: I liked it in the last gen SiR too. I never drove one, but looked cool to me

looking cool and being cool are different…

Looks Like a Ford Fusion :vom:

It’s a “fusion” of sonmthing :bs:

It’s actually growing on me too. I asked around today and they’re not expecting them into the showrooms until spring. The engine compartment looks quite different, I’m noticing.

The 2 Pre Cats will make a tone of room for a Turbo :tonqe:

Or a VQ. :E
