Btw The tires i got were Goodyear Eagle GT's 195/55 15

They grip pretty nicely!!!

 

Hey grtpumpkin, just a quick thought. There may be a member or two on here with a factory VBP sport rear bumper for sale. Shipping may be pricey but it may cost less than having the body shop spray the hatch and a bumper.

Again, just a thought.

 

 

 

broke my license plate lens hahahahaha well the clip

 

Heh, might as well toss it in the trash pile. Weight reduction FTW!











Just kidding of course.

 

hahahaha no kidding, i remember reading a sport compact car magazine years ago.. and they hacked this sentra to bits to shed weight and improve 1/4 mile times

 

ROFFLEHOUSE

I know exactly want you are talking about, it was a white Sentra and I think they were aiming for like the 12's, 10's, or something like that without modifying the engine. There is a video of it up on street fire if I recall correctly.

 

yep that be the one hahahahahahahahahaha

 

His insurance is paying the bill so I don't care if it costs 1,000,000,000,000 dollars! Thanks though... Somehow i don't think that is what Colin Chapman had in mind when he said increase performance by adding lightness! LOL I remember that SCC had a series of projects that bordered on OCD when it came to weight reduction. Remember their time attack Miata?

 

Well I gave it a shot and the milage went from 30 avg. to 29 mpg, this is prob. do to the A/C on.
So I'm going back to Pappa's Recipe gotta batch to pour off as I write this.
C-ya

7/4 11pm and my little home town is closed up for the night . Added the Recipe and the 1.5L responded as usual, ready to rock!
It's been a good 4th of July!

 

Knocked a few webs off the rear tires. I haven't drove it in like a week or two.

 

Added a trans cooler with a little help from a friend (mopar Jim) and his lift, man does that make it alot easier working the cars.

 

Got the windows tinted... within legal limit here in Florida. So its 35% front and the rest are 20%. Sorry no pictures... its been raining all day...

-Jesus

 

And while it was apart we added the plastic mesh to protect the condencer.

 

what cooler is that? I have been thinking of picking one up

 

EBay MNfit, 17.00 + shipping, got it last winter. It's not a lot of cooling But our trans don't hold alot compared to the US tranys. It's a fact that the trans last longer with a one added.
Ebay has this one from Summit for 29.00 shipped, 10.00 for 3/8" ID hose and 2 clamps the Honda fluid was 9.00 a qt. from the dealer. This might help with ur sc, "AT Transmission Coolers" there was a long thread about it here back in '06. It has a diaghram of where to come off the line to the radiator to the cooler and back to the trany.
took about 4hours we made L bracket mounts and of course had to go to the parts house one time...and covered the rock hole.

 

Man that looks really nice. I bet it would help with the super charger. Must look into that for the next thing to mod on the fit.

 

Thanks taFITta,
This is the finished product.

 

Wow Mike, that's looking really good. Might have to look into getting one myself. Did you do the install, or did your friend at the shop? I need to take off my bumper anyway for a retro fit, so this might be in order.
