Sentra SE-R hits 150+mph at VIR

[smokinjoe]

We entered in the Ultimate Track Car Challenge this year (held at VIR) and even tho we were outclassed, running against Vipers, Porsches and other big motor cars, we placed very, very well. Watch us fight it out with a 700hp Ford GT, not the street legal version.

The overheating issue was solved and by the last session, Big J had tuned the VQ to where I was topping 5th and holding 6th down the back straight. We were pushing the edge of 160mph. With better aero we should see 165+ later this year.

Here we are tearing up the UTCC! Enjoy and please post some comments on youtube. Maybe Nissan Motorsports is watching

Very nice. Makes me want to get a SE-R... Oh well, my NX is fine for now.

The car is slowly coming together, we need to tweak the suspension a little more and draw out a more hp out of the VQ, but VIR was the first real test of this motor in the car. Thanks for the support!

That is an amazing car you have put together! Good job!

Updated the bumper and added a splitter for downforce and less drag at Road ATL. Picked up about 15mph on the top end!

We added a gutted maxima intake and OBX headers and went back to the dyno today. The results are impressive. While peak only changed by 5hp, we picked up 30hp on the top. In a race car, thats massive. Anyone who races and doesnt gut the plenum is missing out. Considering we have only wiseco pistons, NWP spacers, and revup cams, the rest of the motor is essentially stock. Suffice to say I am happy with the results. Many thanks Aaron, UpRev and Z1.

Next event is next weekend at Barber Motorsports Park.



Stock Max Intake and Shorty Headers v Gutted Max Intake and OBX Headers

That's impressive for just an intake and exhaust mod!
