The sentra is back-up and on her feet with:

New stuff

An all new suspension

Drilled and slotted brake rotors

Stainless steel brake lines

Stronger transmission mount

Functioning short shifter

Unported stock head

Heavy duty valve springs

Upgraded camshafts

New tires

Pre-existing stuff

SDS standalone engine management system

MSD 72lb/hr injectors

Cometic H/G

ARP head studs

Customized gearbox w/helical LSD

Customized axles

Reinforced engine mounts

83mm CP pistons

.25 over rod and main bearings

T3/T04E based turbocharger with custom wheels (full boost by 4000rpm)

MSD coil blocks

MSD DIS-2

Nismo FPR

Custom turbo manifold

HKS 40mm wastegate

Greddy Type R BOV

Custom fuel pressure gauge

Blitz dual SBC

Blitz dual turbo timer

Autometer boost, oil, a/f (doesn't work) gauges

Custom clutch

Lightened flywheel

Custom intercooler

Walbro pump

And a host of other stuff that I can't think of. So those of you that wondered what's in my car, now you know . We just picked it up from getting aligned and I'll say this, alignments make a huge difference. My car actually launches in a straight line and the new stiffy-stiff coilover set-up doesn't let the rear end buckle at all. I'll park it for now and prepare to put the 4G63T in my hyundai as the 4g61T is fun, but I hate to let good stuff go to waste, so the hyundai will get a boosted 2 liter now.

Thanks dude! The Hyundai I have is a 1995 Elantra and it's pretty quick for what is, but it needs the bigger engine. If I was into DSM like I'm into nissan, this would be a stupid-sick elantra.

Don't talk about her like that because she's sensitive..>LOL<. At least it has A/C and power steering, ha . And it at least it's not ricey ....It's old school, but it's not ugly you weirdos . And after over 10years of this crap, I'd be real disappointed if I couldn't get this car off it's face at the track because it really is a fast spooling, aggressive little biotch.

Watch out.... 4G stuff can get quite addicting. Before you know it you're building a 2.4L 550 ft-lbs torque street monster. Still have no idea what you'd do with a powerful front wheel drive tho.

4g63's are like cocaine:they give you a tremendous high for a little while. then you get low and need more.then they ruin your life.then you get high some more.

the only difference is 4g63's aren't as expensive.dsmtuners.com is the place to go to get your fix.if you need any 4g63 parts, let me know. maybe i'll trade you for some ca18 parts.

i love the all-go and no-show attitude. you need to put some pictures in this thread though.
