nice car bro, drop that sucka though...

14,500...not too bad I guess...with all the financing and shit it's 19k w/ a 5 year loan...a little more than I wanted to spend, but the j-body was getting really annoying.

Hoping to have it paid off by spring 2006...then I'll have the credit and the car will still be worth over 5k...probly 10k so I can sell it and finance a 240 and save the other money for college or a house.

The engine looks and sounds good, interior is excellent other than some minor stains on the driver seat from coffee or something, but they haven't detailed it yet so hopefully all that shit will come out though. There is a small ding by the rear tail light and a scratch near the edge of the trunk lid.

6-speed tranny
175hp @ 6000
180ft/lb @ 4000
2743lb
0-60: 7.5sec

not too bad...it's quick, but probably not considered fast by most people. I love the adjustable seats though.

...Well I tried to get more than 5 loans in various ways and they all failed so I was either stuck with my old car or a fairly new car...and I still wanted a nissan...

I would have bought a 350z only it was about 20k more than I wanted to spend.

And this "POS" sentra is faster than your ca or ka-powered 240...so stfu

8.3 vs 7.5

Who would win? I don't plan to drift so the only benefit of rwd is a more balanced weight.

I should have some interior shots up soon...maybe some more exterior if you're lucky :P

I dunno any 1/4-mile times...but I'm pretty sure this is an overall faster car...it's a tad bit lighter than the lightest stock 240.

There's a bunch of shit the spec-v comes with that makes it an alright car.

nice klohiq, I like that sentra spec-V. Normal sentras I don't like but spec-v's are sporter and faster. I'd take that spec-v over my 240, wanna trade? :naughty:

I don't get it though, if you wanted a 240, you could have just gotten a 240, it's a lot cheaper than that sentra spec-v you got.

actually, his s13 is faster than your spec-v (ca18)

only benefit? i was pretty sure owning a rwd made your penis about 10 times bigger than if you were to own a fwd :biggrin:

you better. i love the interior of the spec-v, really roomy

congratulations on your new nissan. im happy for you, my cousin has that car and its a fun ride for a FF. pretty quick for a stock car too.

I'm still not so sure the ca-powered s13 would beat my car...what mods does he have? They both have within 10hp of each other in stock form...and mine is n/a with over a half liter more displacement. That's beside the point anyway...my car really isn't made for drag racing.

Only problems I have with the car so far is that the shifter is not short enough for my taste and isn't quite as short of a throw as I'd like. The speedo is a little annoying too since it goes by 20mph increments...think you're going 50 and really your going 60...not good. The last downside is the tires are too sticky to spin them...they hop mostly...but that's really not a bad thing...unless you want to piss people off. :lol2:

The interior and engine kick ass, but the outside doesn't look nearly as nice. The spec-v option makes the car's outside look a little nicer and the color helps, but it's still a sentra...so it can't look as good as a 240 :disappoin

It's dark out now, but tomorrow morning I should be able to get some nice shots of the engine and interior :)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA your car is faster than mine???

i dont dragrace either!, i can take u in the turns with my shitty shock/springs combo

the 240 and sentra are not comparable anyway

man If i had 20K or if i ever got approved for loans up to 20k R32 GTR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Still a decent car by no means.... from a ghetto Cavalier to a Spec-V, I'm surprised you found the time to post that you got the car... I'd be out there breaking that sucker in! :)

The car has very good handling for an ff...good slalom speeds from what I hear...supposed to be able to outhandle a wrx :P

R32? It's harder to get a loan for an older car and the r32 wouldn't be legal to drive for that little. The whole point of getting this car was to get better credit and to have a faster car.

Maybe I'll get some interior pics today...it was raining out though so maybe I'll wait for a sunnier day.

Not a huge fan of how bright the red is on the seats, but they are really comfortable.

vvrrrrrrrrrooooooommmmm PPPSSSHHHH!!!!

...youve already said your car is faster and ive already said mine is...leave it at that unless you want to drive to maine and race. moron.

your car:
173hp @ 6400rpm
166lb/ft @ 4000rpm
lsd???? (probly not...)
5-speed trans
15-16" rims? wrapped with shit tires?

my car:
175hp @ 6000rpm
180lb/ft @ 4000rpm
lsd
6-speed
17" rims wrapped with sport tires

our cars weigh about the same so I doubt very much you have anything on me...gg owned...the torque curve of a turbo engine makes the hp and torque comparison a joke since mine has more and it's n/a so it has a more linear curve...

7.5sec 0-60
15.7 1/4mile

what are your times?

stealthj
04-06-2004, 03:02 PM
never did a 0-60,

but my 1/4 is 2.1 seconds faster than yours

so we will leave it at that

retard

and yes, yokohoma avs es100's come for 15 inch rims

biaatch

id rather have a toyota camry than a "vspec" sentra

173 at the wheels is a heck of a lot different than 175 crank power...plus he has verified that is his power, you may be low or higher than what's posted by a bit....your 1/4 mile would tell the 'real' power if you ran it well.

There is nothing wrong with the V-spec. It's just a different type of car...for some that's better, others not.

In regards to trying to 'finance' another 240sx in 5 years....I don't think that would be possible, unless you are talking unsecured loans or taking money on a house out.

the bank I am using for my current loan and the one I will be using for the 240sx allows for cars up to 11 years old. Also since I'm not saving up to buy one outright I will probly look for a 98.

About crank and wheel hp...I wasn't paying attention when I got the stats...sorry...I respect the ca18det for what it is...but it definitely isn't much in stock form. Any discrepency in rwhp will seem small compared to the ability of the driver and overall setup of the car; if he wants to prove his car is faster then I am very welcome to that.

I'm not trying to start some stupid internet bashing "my car is better than yours" type deal, but all you have done is been a dick and fagged this whole thread up. I've never said anything about your cars despite you trying to say how fun it was to drift an auto convertible 240sx.

If I do get a swap (once gas prices go down and my financial situation is a few thousand more per year) I would only consider an rb25...otherwise sticking with the stock ka makes more sense than any swap.

Paying so much for an engine with over half a liter less displacement seems pretty stupid since the ka block definitely isn't a shitty thing to start out with.
