Bates' 2012 Nissan Juke & 1987 300ZX
The Juke starts on page 12, everything else are my old cars.
I bought my 2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V back in September of 2007. When I bought the car it was bone stock, aside from an after market head unit. The car had 54k miles on it, and it wasn’t until a few months later I actually found out that the car had a new engine in it, so the Odometer was about 30k miles off. I loved the car from the day I got it, and to this day, I am still not bored with it, because I am pretty aware of how capable it is, though most people just look at it think it is nothing more then a Sentra. The QR25DE engines are capable of some impressive numbers if the time and money are put into them. |
nice! looks like its going to be a good strong car when finished
|
Wow, looks like you have a project and a half, should be a really fun car when its done! Good luck and keep us updateddd!

anyway, I hate mine...but I'm glad you like yours....I always wanted to boost it...too many issues with my POS though... can't wait to move on in a month or two...but I know I'll always have the thought in the back of my head of "I wonder what my sentra would have been like boosted" probably more unreliable than it already is :lol: but I'm sure it'd be a blast..... |

Update:
Walbro 255LPH fuel pump ordered A case of 0W-30 Amsoil motor oil ordered Waiting to hear back from a site to place my order for ARP Head Studs. Went to my mechanic today to get a price on my turbo install. He wants to hold my car for 2 days which is something I can't do (It needs to be done on a Saturday-Sunday), so it looks like I am back to doing it myself (well with help anyway). Anyone in the North NJ area who has turbo install experience, and who wants to make a couple bucks helping me, please let me know. I am looking to get this installed before Nov, on a Saturday since I work during the week. I have no problem bringing the car somewhere as long as wherever I bring it has the tools needed to get the job done. |
looking good bates soon to be building my spec v as well. i was following ur thread on njt for a while.

UPDATE: Ordered ARP Head Studs, Zeitronix LCD Display, Pro Sport Boost Gauge. Possibly picking up this weekend: Spare QR25DE head and Intake Manifold. They will be going right back out to be honed, port and polished, and the head will be completely built. Also oil should be in today, not sure when the fuel pump will be here. Need to get everything in soon so I can get this damn turbo installed, I am hurting for an oil change right now. Lol. |
Waiting for my Zeitronix LCD Display and my custom Test Pipe now. Should have them both next week.
