My New 08 SE-R

[jobe]

Just wanted to say hello to the forum members. Just got my SE-R a few days ago and it's going to be a great daily driver. Looked long and hard with lots of test driving between the Rabbit, Civic, Mazda 3 Sport, and last was the SE-R. Very Happy with my choice so far. This red one seemed to be the only one available in Toronto. Also the forum has been helpfull as well. I had some ticking noises when first driving off coming from the left front wheel (very similar to the ABS ticking) after reviewing the posts here I am confident that it's the "ABS self check" that I read about.

I must say that the fit and finish for an "econobox" (no dis intended) is very comparable to my wife's 06 g35x

Eibach springs are first on the list - spoiled by the responsiveness of my Mini Cooper:)

Wow, sentras have sur grown in size over the years.

Car looks pretty cool. How's the performance side of it?

Nice Spec-V. Welcome to the club.

Performance is ok, needed an affordable daily driver with some sportiness. I do want to improve the suspension though. Wanted an automatic so not a Spec V.

looks nice, i almost went with the red. only suspension mods out right now are eibach pro-kits (what i have installed) and the eibach sportlines though i haven't seen any pictures of them installed yet. megan racing and ksport are supposed to be releasing coilovers in the next couple months if you want to wait for those. welcome to nico.

Just gonna start by saying welcome to the club... and nice new ride. Grats on the new Sentra SE-R .. =)

I would have liked to see the other colours especially the dark grey and white (not available in Canada) but there were no other SE-R's around. Ride and drop looks nice!! Did you have to get the camber kit to align your tires properly with the Eibach Pro Kit springs?

There are other ones, like mine.

camber wasn't thrown too much with the drop. i doubt it will need an adjustment kit, i think it should be able to be corrected with the factory adjustments. i do need to get an alignment done soon though cause i do notice its off just slightly (not noticeable otherwise but i'm very anal). i'll let you know how it goes.

hey i have the 2008 spec-v red just wanted to hook up on some info on this things... im new to nissan and racing racing wasnt fun when i had my 2003 2.0 jetta just wanted to know what can i do to this car to beat a stupid civic si and other cars (bastards have exhaust and intake and are faster than me ) :'(

Check out the B16 parts list linked in the Table of Contents at the top of the Sentra page. It'll show you what's out there.

I read some good reviews about the Eibach Pro Kit I don't want to play around with any coilovers. So I ordered the Eibach Pro. Can't wait to get them on hopefully next week. If it doesn't corner as flat as I'd like and cure some of the understeer I may change the sway bars all around. Not sure if I can change the rear though as it's apparently "integrated"??

[nametakennow]

You can add a rear sway. The rear suspension is a torsion beam, so there's no additional rear sway from the factory.

It's a good mod, but I don't know if they have one for the 07+ yet.

That would make 2 in all of T.O. that I have seen. Yours on pics and a light silver on the road. I called about 5 dealers to see if they had any on the lot so I can see different colour SE-R's but was out of luck.

There isn't even that many 2.0 Sentra around Toronto. So not too surprised.
