So here is my ride with the springs installed, looks so much better, glad it is done! FYI, they weren’t that bad to put in. Fronts took 3 hours backs, took 20 minutes. The worst of it wsa trying to get the third top bolt out on the driver side strut. Had to take the windshield wiper off and the cowel to get at it. BEFORE _cough 4x4 cough_ ![http://www.dennis.projectwake.com/images/sentra-before.jpg](http://www.dennis.projectwake.com/images/sentra-before.jpg) AFTER wooot!! Woot!! ![http://www.dennis.projectwake.com/images/sentra-after1.jpg](http://www.dennis.projectwake.com/images/sentra-after1.jpg) ![http://www.dennis.projectwake.com/images/sentra-after2.jpg](http://www.dennis.projectwake.com/images/sentra-after2.jpg) My grill-less front,ummm ya, I was trying to do a DIY grill change and it didn’t work out as planned, so I am going to look for a new grill, sumbitch! Next up is black out the tails and headlights and MAYBE some fog lights in a few months. Otherwise that wlll be it for this year. Next year I get some tint, exhaust and maybe some minor engine mods. And I will have some better pics in the future once the grill is on and the lights are blacked out. ---

I dunno, I’m not trying to sound like an asshole. But for the same 20k your car cost you could have an 08 Civic LX with the same amount of power, a much nicer interior, and an exterior that doesn’t look so awkward. The Civic doesn’t even need to be lowered to look good. I just can’t get over the looks of the new Sentra. Different strokes for different folks I guess. ---

My mom has a new civic and I looked at it before I bought the sentra. I didn’t like it. I drove my Mom’s civic for a week and I didn’t like it. I don’t like the interior, too many blind spots and the double dash thing, ya didn’t like that either. The civic was my first choice but after driving my mom’s civic, I was turned off from it. I find the Sentra’s interior a lot nicer, it’s quieter, the blue tooth feature is wicked (which you cannot get on a new civic), the trunk lid being on gas shocks that are out of the way of the trunk space is really nice (not available on civic), and the 6 speed manual I really like. Sure it sits high stock compared to the civic, but I’m happy with my purchase and honestly I think it’s quite fitting that I am back to a Nissan considering my very first car I ever owned was a Nissan Sentra. A 1984 2 door 😃 ---

Looks good. I have to get springs for mine too, but next year. And be glad you didn’t get a new civic. I see atleast 20+++++ everyday. Way to many people with them and because of that they just look boring and bdon’t stand out anymore. At least the Sentra’s are not as rampid on the roads, which is one of the reasons I bought mine. Other than its a Nissan. lol. And your not the Only B16 anymore biatch. LOL. ---

I realy like the rims! i wonder if there is a big difference with your sportlines and my pro-kit in terms of drop hight. It looks almost the same to me… But I have to post pics of my B16 soon too! Got some more stuff done since the last pics on Nico! ---

I think this has already been mentioned,but you are now not the only B16 owner on here. My girl is still bone stock so nothing exciting to post yet. None the less, I like the lowered look and the painted rims. You did a good job :thumbup1: ---

So far there are 2 NECC B16s. And the sportline drop is way lower than the pro kit. Steve has a Spec V with sportlines and he is slammed. It looks really good. Thanks for the comments.
