Looks like to me all it needs is some good suspension and wheels/tires + windo tint.

I like smooth simple clean cars.

To each his own though.

Not all bluebirds are AWD and SR20DET…that’s the SSS trim

What he found has a standard CA18DE FWD

Hey....what is the diff between that awd bluebird, and a bluebird SSS attesa, or jess a plain attesa (if there is a plain attesa)

Actually this IS an AWD Bluebird. It believe isn't the SSS, it's just the base level AWD bluebird (if that's what the japanese call it, I'm researching more info on the net.). That's why I asked if there was a diff between the SSS and non SSS awd bluebirds

I'm also going to e-mail the company to find out the exact spec's. I'll tell you when and if they reply.

edit: These are the specs they provide for you

Year: 1994 Engine: 1.8P Gearbox: Manual Doors: 4 Seats: 5 Colour: silver Kilometers: 87,000 Grade: 4

Extras: ac, ps, pw, pm, cl, 4wd, ARX-L

(what's ARX-L????? if it was turbo they would have had tb, they might have left it out lol)

OWNED by the search button^^

Post by **jEzTeR** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

AWD is good1.8 w/o turbo is not so good

price is goodgives you something to work on.

Post by **Altiman94** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

buy it. Dont do no stupid body kit. Get some suspension and a nice wheel/tire package

Post by **PantherRacer** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

That's what I was thinking, get suspension and work on the engine first. I'm still going to get a body kit. not something outrageous though, just to increase the aerodynamics, cuz I WILL beat this car like a b****

lol

Any pointers/tips on suspension? I'm still searching google for turbo kits.

Post by **PantherRacer** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

The maker of tha kit said this should be a close fit

and this is what I hope to buy

Post by **jEzTeR** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

That altima is not the same body style so I don't see how that kit could fit?

Post by **PantherRacer** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

yeah I was thinking that, maybe the altima of the same year's bodykit? 94 Altima ~94 Bluebird like this?

Post by **PantherRacer** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

ok, forget the bodykit, unless u wanna input, I'll sort it out with the guy who makes em.

My Question still stands. Can you turbo a SR18DE engine?and where can I find intake, exhaust systems for it? will altima or NX/Pulsar systems fit my Bluebird? I am searching, but it's nice to knw there's a backup (this post) in case my efforts turn up fruitless. THANK YOU in advance.

Post by **undertaker** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

you can turbo that motor but you would be far better off saving for an SR20DET. having said that the two are physically similar and a lot of gear will interchange with minor or no mods (some FWD SR20DE's have quite nice stainless headers standard and turbo manifolds should bolt on), in fact a lot of FWD Nissan parts can be made to fit if you are pepared to modify them a bit.

just to clear up some misconceptions on AWD BB's, the ATTESA can be had with a number of options. I have seen U12's with CA18i (SOHC), CA18DE, CA18DET, CA18DET-R, SR20DET etc. the key is in the model prefix or suffix eg: 'SSS' ATTESA 'Limited'. a SSS will be DOHC and a Limited will have a turbo too. i don't know that much about U13 names but the Ltd is still the one to get

Post by **PantherRacer** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 2:24 pm

okay, THAT particular attesa got sold from under me, but I have a backup site

they're gonna send me their list as soon as they make it.I asked them for their SSS Attesa'sARX-L attessa's and primera t4's and silvia K's

(they should have made an awd silvia)
