Pretty quick car. But it's gotta be hard to drive with that huge blue banner blocking half of your vision.

SR20DET is the motor out of the turboed S13-S15. It's a very common swap into a 240SX here.

NSX probably got stomped on because it's too heavy. The Sentra is a half-way decently light car, and with a turbo, it's a pretty quick ride. But I'm starting to think that that thing isn't turboed. I didn't hear a BOV or the turbo spooling.

Well, your half-right. The SR20DET is in the RWD silvia/180sx, but he probably got it from a FWD Bluebird, which is the turbo version of the sentra with an SR20DET

Ah yes. I forgot about the Bluebird. Noone ever talks about a FWD SR20DET. It's basically just the SR20, turned 90 degrees and no RWD drive shaft.

You do realize that wing is actually functional, right? It adds something called downforce, which adds grip to the rear-end of the car by pushing it downward, thus being called DOWNFORCE. Since the NSX is a mid-engined, rear-wheel drive vehicle, the wing is functional.

Nope, the SE-R has a 2.5L I4, the QR25DE making 175 hp and 180 lb-ft.

some of the B14 Sentra's came with SR20DE......... but there are turbo kits for that car. And the NSX is NOT a heavy car.

Ill chime in, because im one of the few sentra experts in here... (i think)

91-94 Sentra se-r came with SR20DE same engine minus the blower.. and a higher compression ratio 140hp The sentra itself weighs like 2400lbs All Se-R's come with a stock LSD

Last year I rode in a 92 Sentra se-r with a T28 bolted onto it. Everything was left stock except the exhaust. That car really rips. I mean high 13's easy. It felt like a v8, throttle response was instant , wheel spin anywhere in 2nd when the loud pedal hit the floor. Anyrate the SR20 is capable of making about 500-550 if built properly,.. place that in a 2400lb or less chasis and its going to be quick.

THe new sentra se-r's while just slightly quicker then the old ones.. mod for mod the new ones will lose.

check out the JGTC, those cars are...

A. Much faster than that shitty NSX

B. Don't look near as Ricey and still have wings to provide the downforce...
