Man, that ride squats up and down all the way down the track.
Put some cables to tie down the front springs and some rubber bushing to lift up the rear springs, with some M/T slicks, and you're look at mid to low 12's, easy.
Kudos, but I hope there aren't a bunch of losers out there who think this makes any sense for a normal person. Just buy an Evo/STi and you'll keep up with that car, have warranty, and you won't be driving a Sentra. Not to mention if you spend less than a grand. You'll blow that car out of the water. Also, the handling on that car has to be garbage.
Whatever. My sentra has the 270-R in it. I beat sti's all day long with my 87 Si hatch. The only STI I like is my buddies. He's got tons of cash in it though. But it costs less than an airplane. Good luck!
Hardly... These cars run 12.80's - 12.90's @ 105mph in N/A form, on 24.5x8" slicks. Toss in a little N20 (up to 150hp jetting on a stock VQ35), and you're talking about a 118-120mph trap.. The car doesn't handle any worse than a Spec with a QR25.. the engine weighs roughly 50lbs more, versus the stock QR. Placing the battery in the trunk can account for the difference in weight.
Oh, I think it was a red spec v w/vq35de swap that was on car domain and had a vid runnin a 13.1, then a 12.9, and then a 12.8 with only an aftermarket single exhaust.
I was driving the car for those two passes.. We had absolutely zero traction, even on a 22x8" slick.. the car has a VQ35 with A32B ECU/harness. Those 2 passes were run with 75hp jetting.. which is why we were able to net 112-113mph trap speeds. Unfortunately, the car just wouldn't hook, and we spun through 1st.. you can hear me pedal the car on the second pass coming out of the hole.

You try to make a 3000lb FWD car hook with 350+wtq, on a 22x8" tire.. aint happening.. I've gone 12.9's N/A with the same tire combo, with GOOD suspension.. exact same engine setup.
Dude you didnt "hook up" Do you even know what that term means?! A "boot" means you were LATE out of the gate. A 3 second "boot" is retarded. You didnt even jump until that time
*shrug*.. it's not like we were bracket racing for money or anything.. it was a test/tune session. I was more worried about launching the car than my R/T's.. I've never heard of leaving late as a "boot".. We call it getting "tree'd", but, that's about it..
I'm sure that this sentra running the 13's is faster. Look at the trap speeds... These 13 second runs has a trap of 110+ mph! The 12 second pass only traps at 103! This guy is probably running on street tires/radials.

Should go with the 270R. Damn back fires. Don't let off the gas. Let the rev limiter do the thinking.

Does anyone else think, it sounds more like a VQ30DE out of a A32 generation Maxima than it does a VQ35DE. I wonder why...
