If I thought your sentra could make the trip to Virginia

I thought the G20 was always based off the sentra chassis. Or am I just blowing smoke?

Either or, that particular G20 has my attention. The only thing I would change is to drop a 5 speed in it, but if it's the high end model package, it should have a limited slip in it. Which makes it very appealing.

G20's are P-series chassis, Sentra's are B-series. The 2nd gen G20 that you showed a picture of is a P11. The only thing they have in common with the Sentra is that they both are FWD and have an SR20DE.

What's the economy on the spec v? Most reviews I read have it listed as about 18 MPG city. Granted you've done I/E/H, so that should help the numbers out a bit I would think. I'm really trying to make my next car a bit more economical. Especially once the new turbo and fuel management go on the vert.

Sticker says 22/28 (which btw, I have), and that's almost exactly what I get.

Dude, you buy my Sentra, I'll even throw in the factory brochure, FSM, and if you have a means to pick it up, a spare QR25DE (parts only though, because it has a spun rod bearing). Spare motor came from a different car though, mine is on the original motor.

k, i'm done now. back to our regularly scheduled program

bart, i had a 95 base model sentra. it was not the fastest thing in the world, not by a long shot, but i was almost making 40 miles to the gallon. plus that ga16 can really take some abuse

I'm waiting to hear back from my insurance agent. I'll have him quote me on the V, and I need to talk to my bank about a loan anyways. Choices now!

Of course, I might have to wait a few weeks for another paycheck or two, and the insurance is a big factor.

i'm still shocked that someone actually made aftermarket parts for that engine, especially stillen. but to answer your question, yes, it did give my weedwhacker a deeper, throatier sound lol.

If I buy the G20, I have about a billion SR parts sitting around to fix it if/when it does break I'm not the RWD SR moderator for nothing!
