That's for the Sentra not the Altima coupe. I don't even think they have the same engine... they have not made a turbo for the a/c 2.5.. There are a few people on this forum with turbos for their 3.5's.

sentra SE-R and SE-R spec V use the QR25DE motor in the 2.5s sentras but with stronger internals supposedly..... and to the OP, a sentra Turbo will work BUT it wont be a bolt up thing because its not for the altima coupe.... it will work but you'll need a shop to custom bend pipes to fit your car instead of a sentra and also many people have said the stay away from the Turbos on ebay (i never got one so i cant say why... just what i heard).

The regular Sentras came with the QG18DE. The Sentra SER and SpecV came with the QR, but the SpecV supposedly has the upgraded internals. From what I've gathered, the QR in the Altimas is on par with that of the Sentra SER.

In theory...yes.You can do damn near anything provide you've got the scratch to back it up. Just think...you could be the first boosted 2.5 AC on here!

never ever buy those no name brand turbos from ebay. I believe they were called turbo xs or something like that back in the day. their turbines cracked in half, wastegate fell apart, and even more bad things about them. Ill say it again, STAY AWAY FROM THESE TURBO KITS OR ANYTHING FROM THESE NO NAME TURBO PARTS!!!

the manifold should bolt up to the block though correct. leaving the need for intercooler pipes and a downpipe. in which case it shouldnt be any problem at all for an exhaust shop to fab up a dp and they sell tubing on the internet to use for an IC kit.now im not sure how the oil feed lines will fit. they should work as well. so i wouldnt really buy a whole kit considering u couldnt really use all of it... just a manifold and turbo if u could find one. and i wouldnt buy a very big turbo... heh and after just going to look at the link i realize it is a universal kit and not for the specv or ser. i still wouldnt go with tht. id try to find an ser manifold and a smaller turbo considering we really cant push our weaker internal engines very far (i didnt notice if u have a cvt or 6 speed but i wouldnt want to push the cvt too far either if thts what u have. although im curious as to how far it can be pushed lol both the engine and transmission. ) and do like i said for the rest and get pipes and what not. im just too broke right now to try it after taking a 5 buck an hour pay cut lol.
