1991 Nissan Sentra Se-r (b13) on 2040-cars

Year:1991 Mileage:116000

Norwalk, Connecticut, United States

I have a very good condition 91 (B13) Sentra SE-R up for sale. The car has about 116,000 miles on it and has some great and very hard to find upgrades. The interior is in excellent to mint condition. The majority of these generation sentras have rust and/or rot. This car is way above average in that regard and is basically rust free. The car is looks stock inside and out aside from the next generation SE-R wheels.  The intake and exhaust are very mild sounding. The handling is really what sets this car apart though. The car would make a great autocross or road course car. The car is already dialed in with great parts, cheap to run, easy to find parts, cheap to insure, and is easy on gas.  These cars are a riot to drive and were compared to BMW 2002s when introduced.

In the last week, these were replaced:  oil, spark plugs, fuel filter, and high pressure power steering line.

Upgrades to the car:

3" air intake, header, Borla stainless catback exhaust, Fidanza aluminum flywheel, Active Tuning front strut bar and lower control arm brace, b15 sentra alternator, front and rear Progress sway bars, Energy poly suspension and motor mounts, raxles, stainless brake lines, shigspeed/koni coilovers-330F/300R, Ground Control adjustable camber plates, Unorthodox pulleys, GTI-R radiator, NX2000 front brakes, (U13) Altima brake master cylinder, nice CD player with tweeter in the front doors, B14 Sentra 15" wheels with close to new 205/50/15 tires, comes with extra GTI-R steering wheel that needs work.

Cons: the car has plenty of parking dings, the radio is not powering up for some reason and antenna needs to be installed, front passenger fender does not have the gray bottom, AC is all there but needs a charge, and drive belt has started squeaking at start up since temps have dropped.

The shigspeed coilovers are long discontinued and cost $2500 when new. You would be hard pressed to find a sharper handling setup.  Modified Magazine did a article comparing the Sport Compact Car project B13 SE-R to newer SE-R's.  The SCC project car has more or less the same suspension set up as my car even down to the spring rates.  Here is a quote from the article, "That said, Project SE-R's 0.96g is damn impressive. Around the bumpy pad there's no balance, no hint of the oversteer or even comforting neutrality I tried to tune into the car, just loads of grip from the Nitto NT-01s with a bit of understeer at the end. By comparison, the B15s feel completely limp."

Here is a quote about the coilovers:

"They are Koni 8611's in custom housings using GC collars. His rear mounts for B13's do kick serious ass. Really nicely machined rear pillowball mounts that eliminate all play. I didn't have too many questions, since I got to drive a car with them and go for a track ride. Sold me on the spot! The SHigSpeed Suspension consists of shortened externally adjustable Koni Sport Struts (Yellows) front and rear with adjustable rebound and dampening. The rebound can be doubled and the compression can be tripled to go from street cruiser to crack your dental work track ready status. The strut shaft on these Koni's is a stout 22mm vs 18 and 20 mm on our previous setup. For springs Eibach ERS are used with spring rates at 380 front and 300 rear. Most aggressive street SE-Rs run 300 front and 200 rear but we're willing to compromise a little comfort to ensure our suspension is more at home on the track."

Will Nissan's Cummins deal upset Ram's marketing mojo? [w/poll]

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Ram has used Cummins engines in its heavy duty trucks since 1989, and it is the only pickup truck brand to use products from the Indiana-based engine maker. With the announcement that the next Nissan Titan will also use a Cummins powerplant, and a Nissan spokesman having already said "We will definitely leverage the Cummins brand name," a piece in Automotive News wonders whether the deal will affect the way Ram markets its tie-up with Cummins.
The question really is, how intense is this competition? While it is the first time that trucks from two different brands have used Cummins engines, they'll be two different engines in two different kinds of trucks; Nissan is going to put a 5.0-liter turbodiesel in a non-heavy-duty Titan, Ram only uses its 6.7-liter, inline six-cylinder turbodiesel in heavy-duty offerings. The diesel that Ram will offer in its light-duty, half-ton 1500 is a 3.0-liter V6 EcoDiesel with 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque - compared to about 300 hp and 550 lb-ft expected from the Titan's Cummins - and its marketing so far has focused on the fuel economy gains.
If Nissan was going to prove its commitment to the segment, it had to do something compelling. If we're talking about sales competition between Ram and Nissan, Ram has sold 201,633 trucks as of July this year, up 24.2 percent, 31,314 of those sales coming last month; Nissan has sold 10,020 Titans through the end of July, down 21.1 percent, and just 1,168 in July itself. Nissan's new truck boss - who hopped there from Ram - said that buyers have asked for a powerful turbodiesel in something other than a heavy duty pickup, and from what we've read on various comment boards, the pickup truck crowd is excited about Nissan's move.

RC car drift video brings Fast and Furious style in 1:10 scale

Mon, Apr 13 2015

Taking a cue from Lexus' 2015 Super Bowl ad Let's Play, Falken Tire is proving that RC cars can drift just as well, if not better, than their full-size counterparts. However, to make things four times as exciting, this clip eschews a single hopped-up model hanging its tail out in favor of a quartet of them sliding around together. Starring 1:10 RC versions of popular drift machines like the Nissan S15 Silvia, Mazda FD-chassis RX-7 and Initial D star Toyota Corolla AE86, these cars also get a suite of blinking LEDs to lend some extra color to all of the tire spinning. Plus, the use of well-positioned cameras and a scale model environment almost makes this group look like they're at work in the real world.

Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year

Thu, 14 Nov 2013

Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
