ALTIMA coupe:

-National Guard A/C



-Loop's A/C

ALTIMA sedan:

Nissan showed off its green side with a race-modified Altima Hybrid put together by Braille Battery. The Altima Hybrid is powered by E85 and uses an electric supercharger to improve performance. Looking like a race car both inside and out, the Altima Hybrid shows off the potential future for performance hybrids.

Damn it looks SOOO HOT!as of now, sedans are pwning the coupe lol

Damn I hate the paint on the guard coupe. Would of been alot better if the would of used the real digital camp colors on the top. But the dash looks sick.

But Loop's A/C looks amazing.

the national guard coupe is vomit. It says 2.5T? I know it didn't have a turbo in it a few weeks ago at the Dallas HIN.

Well, if this is the place for SEMA pics...

From (http://jalopnik.com/5076062/tr...r-gas):

If you've got an H2T but you're not happy with the gas mileage — finding it way too high — your options are limited. Sure, you could bolt on performance mods, but we'd suggest these elegant and subtle tracked belts to replace your efficient pneumatic tires. This H2 was spotted outside the Vegas convention center welcoming all who ventured out to see the SEMA fest, bedecked in two-tone green-and-black, ready to crawl to your favorite club. No word on top speed, but hey, it's not about when you get there; it's about what you crush on the way.







I want two pairs of these for winter shoes!

those tracks have been out for awhile. I saw them in a maxime magazine like 4 years ago. Those bad boys are pretty expensive, and they make a version with small sand padels in them as well. We sent hummer like 60 emails trying to get them to send us a set when I was in Iraq. But we never got a reply. hahaha

They would of been destroyed in a day anyways. Besides jumping everything insite, ramming cars, and road side bombs. Normal tires didnt usually last more than 1000 miles. hahaha

hybrids are only CVT right? Vortech made a supercharger for a CVT???? how much HP is it putting out and everything? i know its on a 2.5 (the hybrid) so its probably not pushing as much as blakes was but maybe they're in the process of testing the CVT and can build it up to take more power? does stillen have any details? since they worked on the car too and also talked about making a supercharger with vortech.

ya that thing is a beast and it looks amazing too

but they got it to take 440 HP and it has been tested at tracks (how they got those numbers) so its not just all show no go..... plus it's going to be a real race car driven in real races..... so i guess vortec got the CVT to take 440 HP. maybe there is hope for us CVT guys in the future lol
