My 1998 Nissan Sentra GXE

thank you travis

whaevar floats your boat partner!

He said it in a dick way, but heres what I think he means. Why are you sinking money into a car which financially doesnt make sesne? (not that modding any car makes sense financially) I’m sure regardless of what you say this car isnt going to be something your going to keep for more than a couple years, and by putting money into it all your doing is burning your own money as when the time comes to sell it when you no longer want it, your not going to get any of the money back. You’d be better off putting money into the bank and waiting a few years to buy a nice car, something you know your going to want and keep for awhile so you don’t look back and thing woah why did I put $$$ in that? My first 2 cars I wanted to do this that and this, i did a few stupid little things here and there, looking back on it now, at the time I was like woah this is sick cant wait to do this now, because well its what I had and could afford at the time, but makes absoloutely no fucking sense what so ever, and not that it was much but easily coulda been another 1-2k i coulda put into the Z, which while not a “really nice” car by any means, is something I do plan on being in for quite some time as I love the car.

I know you want something somewhat fun to drive, and want to mod your vehicles, but be smart about it. Keep it stock, drive it, save money and mod something thats going to be worth modding. Something you don’t drive daily and will enjoy for years.

Regardless, as travis said, good luck with whatever you do man, if you think its going to make you happy in the long run then by all means keep going, but I think in the future your going to want to punch yourself in the dick.

i do plan on keeping this car for a while actually, i enjoy it, its a small car on the outside which is suprisingly roomy on the inside…it will be something that will be awesome when im done with it :slight_smile:

ill find something else to DD…getting rid of the geo…found a 95 se-r 200sx that i could DD…its auto and needs a water pump…but 800 bucks is a good deal…(for that car)

What? You post some of THE most flawed and senseless logic out of any other member on this forum.

and im not sure if you are the best member to be making that statement either…

Oh my bad. What school did you get your masters degree from?

I guess a lot of my posts wouldn’t make sense to a DOPE now would they. :rofl

waste of time and money imo

Good work Leo:rofl

and Modding a sentra is SRS BZNS guys.

And modding a bike is a waste of time imo…

.

Sup man, good luck with that GA16DE. You can do quite a bit to the Sentra, I remember the three part series in SCC on it, here I found it for ya:

Looks like the Hotshot header actually made some power, and the NX brakes were also done by SCC.

And if people are giving you a hard time about spending money and modding the car, pay no attention and keep going. If you react to it, it will probably get worse.

thanks man, yea, i have read most of that article, and i actually have a hotshot header in my back seat…just gotta get it on there…lol and NX brakes are probably in my future as well, just gotta get up some extra cash…and thanks again for the support, i love my car and will continue modding it until im satisfied… :slight_smile:

That’s why we’re here… And why I don’t think it’s right for one car guy to say to another “don’t waste money on _______ platform”. For a ______ (insert make of choice here) guy, that mentality is understandable, but if you like cars for what they are, hey keep going!

Actually the above is all a bunch of BS so ignore it- truth is out, I’m actually a Sentra fanbOi

:lol

i love working on cars, and i love modding them…i actually had a nice convo w/ DC, and we were talking and planning on things a can do to my lil 1.6…we have some sweet ideas so far… “free mods” FTW haha :ninja

yea! another sentra fan! haha whats your favorite chassis?

Owned a B13 classic, driven several B14s, owned B15 SE and driven a couple of the Spec Vs.
B13 is the hands down favorite! I’d love to own a near mint one someday…

Yeah, Spec V is probably the fastest straight line, but I just don’t like the QR engines and even the six speed box didn’t feel “great” in the one I drove.

Plus they have that low redline and all.

A VQ swapped Spec V sounds cool on paper but I wonder how nice those things handle with even more weight on the fronts!

ive actually seen a VQ35 (from an altima) swapped into a B14…that was pretty cool
(w/ a 6spd IIRC…)

I want to say it’s <100lbs more, with a battery relocation and some screwing around I’m sure it could be the same or better f/r weight ratio compared to a stock Spec V.

I want to build a Spec VQ but has no moniez :frowning:

:excited

It’s Nissan’s version of a J/K swapped Civic/Integra

Best trap on that car (stock motor except JWT cams + nitrous, 75 shot I think) is 117mph
