Visual upgrades to the '05 Sentra SE-R...

[CentralFLSentraSE-R]

Alright so since last time I posted pics when i first joined about a month ago I have done some changes to the car.

Visual:

Painted the stock rims a gloss black (looks sick)Tinted the headlights, fogs, and tail lightsPainted the grill gloss black (if you haven't realized yet, I am going for the "stealth" look).

Engine/Exhaust:

Short ram intake, noticed significant increase in gas mileage (used to get 230-240 per tank, now getting avg of 300 miles per tank), and sounds pretty mean.Removed the rear muffler on the car and currently in the process of obtaining a tip to put on the system. Sounds nice, nothing ricey.

Will put up pics of the mods, and will also put up video clips of the original exhaust sound to the new exhaust sound. Any feedback on the mods, or any other ideas feel free to let me know, I like new ideas.

Looking forward to the pics/vids.

So are you leaving the muffler off? Or just waiting to get a new one? My suggestions would be do those calipers up. With all black a nice red would not only stand out but it would give the "Whooo Damn" effect in my opinion. Very cheap to do. But with the stealth I don't know if you would like.

Sounds nice, throw up some pics, I would just go ahead and get a full setup tho not just a tip

i like the toothless mod on the grill for the 04-06

also a lip kit also looks good on the 04-06

i would recommend on getting a catback instead of just a muffler.

well... today, finally got the SRT-4 tip from my buddy and got that welded up and got my second cat removed. it sounds pretty nice, for only a $15 mod.

Here's the long awaited pictures:



So I have the short ram intake, oil breather filter, se-r radiator and oil caps, customer black wheels, tinted head/tail/fog lights, srt 4 exhaust tip ( 2nd cat was removed along with the stock rear muffler), gloss black grill.

To come:adjustable coil over springs, headers, after market kenwood head unit, fiberglass hood (thinking gloss black paint), custom sub enclosures, painting the calipers red.

Any other sweet ideas please feel free to submit them.

So i'm sure that you guys have heard this sound before...



Once my computer quits acting up I will have the new sound/video clip up.

Rather than embedding (or in addition to embedding, I don't care which) if you could post a link to where that's hosted so I can add it to the Exhaust Index that'd be great.

Here it is. The "after market" will be up soon.

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuude that can't be safe



I understand its a Spectre Intake but stay away from zip ties. You could be losing precious air through that not being tightly fastened

[nametakennow]

Oy, nice catch.

That is NOT a good place for zip ties. Rig up a bolt with a locknut on the end and tighten them from opposite directions instead.

[CentralFLSentraSE-R]

yea i've been wondering about that, will do. thanks for the advice
