    naks... ex-Sentra boy ka rin... had an SR20 Sentra... but it was more of a straightline car... my old "racer" was a Sentra FE with whiteline springs, gas shocks and Potenzas... it was the "trip to cavite" car. Funny how I didn't just put all those mods in the same place. :lol:

    The RS replaced both of those... not as fast as an SR20 or a turbo GA16, but does everything I want of it. Touge battle, anyone? :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Exactly. A 30-something Marketing executive can't show up in places in a 2LOW to GO 1600 sedan.

    My sentra had the ga16de engine but I was able to upgrade it with a b14 turbo kit modified to fit my car. And its also a straight line drag car when I had it setup then. Suspension was lowered with eibach sportline springs I had shipped from the US. I also had a lot more stuff done from engine electronics, fuel systems, ignition upgrades, stage 1 clutch kit, etc.

    I also had a couple of 12 inch subwoofers in the backseat. Its really fun doing a couple of runs down the 1/4 mile with a CD of TOPGUN playing loud! Makes you feel like Maverick getting launched from the carrier flight deck. ;)

    Getting sentimental about my old car..... if I had enough money, I might try to build up a Sentra B13 with a SR20 w/ NOS or SR20DET engine for a fun weekend car.

    Hindi pa kasi tayo nagpapang-abot. Or sa sobrang bilis ng TD42-powered Hilander ko eh hindi kita napansin. Hehehe. :D

    *charing!*

    nope... when I first got the sentra (back in late 1991), there was totally no stuff for it except air filters, headers, muffler and mags. Everything else I had to find on my own. Thankfully the internet was matured a few years later.

    basta it would do something to improve my ride's performance everythings ok. the only setup that i'll be doing other than that would be the sounds. cosmetics come in last.
