My 96 Sentra

[ImHidingInTheBackseat]

Hi guys, I'm new here, I posted in this area instead because I have a Sentra by the way.

I own a 96 Sentra GXE, with a GA16DE /automatic transmission.The motor is stock, but it has a Flowmaster exhaust, sounds good to me though.It also has 15x6.5" 5zigen RSX6's in hyper black.Future mods, not really sure there will be any, since I have a project car on the side that Im restoring then building up.Heres some pics.

Thanks, I'll have a sound clip of my exhaust soon so you guys can hear it.It has a unique sound I have not heard matched yet.Only car I can compare its sound to is a RX7

Not too shabby

Thanks I got pics of my other car too, but its not a Nissan, not sure If I'm allowed to show it though.Its a Volkswagen, dont wanna make anyone mad.

Nah go ahead and show it. I have a Ford

This is the project car. Its a Standard 1972 Beetle.This is my stock 1600cc, only mods done to it right now is the standard header w/ J tubes and a single glasspack http://i253.photobucket.com/al...1.jpg

After its rolling and on the road, eventually it will have the front axle beam narrowed 4" and with adjusters (allowing me to lower it 3") along with 2.5" dropped spindles.The rear the torsions just require some turning to lower it (free, dont gotta buy anything).I want to get the drums drilled for 4-100 bolt pattern.Add sway bars to front and rear.Then motor wise Im goin to bore an maybe stroke it to a 1915cc. 94mmx69mm with some nicely done heads, mild cam, 1.4:1 rockers, 48IDA carbs, merged header with muffler, and a hi po ignition system.Im wanting 180hp or close, for your info, thats between STOCK Mustang GT and Corvette Z06 status in the 1/4 mile range.Friend has one running that same motor runnin 12's at 106 mph

Some ideas I have rim wisehttp://i253.photobucket.com/al...6.jpgThe wheels on my Sentrahttp://i253.photobucket.com/al...2.jpgor the new Axis Racer X, 15x7 up front, 15x8 in rear, with the stretched tire look

Nice! Cool build.

The NICO staff respects all automotive enthusiasts, so no worries about offending anyone. Heck, we have at least one staff member who works for a GM dealership.

Very nice VW!

Our Detail Specialist at the dealership has an awesome old bug with a built motor. That car hauls.

Welcome to the club, cool cars.

[ImHidingInTheBackseat]

thanks guys. The bug is Harbor Blue with Almond White fenders, interior is going to be black.I need and idea for a steering wheel, anyone here got any ideas? IM thinking of using the Grant GT Slotted steering wheel, since it will match my window cranks.The Sentra right now is out of comission too.I need to get a windsheild, priced one with a 5 year waranty, for 266 bucks, brand new, installed with new rubber.

Can anyone tell me what all I need to lower my Nissan if I was to lower it?I was looking on ebay for something kinda cheap but nothing thats poor quality but for a budget minded person.I was lookin on Ebay and theres a Mico?Arosport? They any good?Do I want lowering springs or coil overs?
