  • I want this video on my 692 unit.

  • This video is a favorite on Djibouti

  • So is the car RWD now with the swap?

  • 6:48 WICKED grip

  • You sure do swim well for being in such deep water.

    Strong work guys. You do yourselves proud!

  • this thing is a giant killer. Nothing but respect for VQ powered Sentras.

  • nice driving a bet that ford GT was gritting his teeth ever time he saw your little $15,000 car pulling up on him I have an 03 spec v whats it cost to do the vq35 swap? i hate the exploder in it now

  • @DragonRoLo exactly what i was gonna say

  • Why is the guy in the GT40 babying it around corners?

    & LOL @ Casse giving you the wave by.

  • god you give me chills watching this. Just proves what engineering and a good driver can achieve! I cannot wait to get your coilovers on my baby!

  • I've watched this too many times..

  • It's not stock. The only non OEM parts in the motor are 11:1 pistons and ARP rod bolts. It's a DE block and head with some HR parts in it. I wired it up to use a 350Z ecu, and the ECU is unlocked and tunable with UpRev's Osiris software. It has the usual bolt ons and some minor custom stuff. It actually makes (now) 265whp, but we have to detune it (to under 255whp) to run in NASA TTB class.

  • did this vq make 255 whp stock/

  • We went back to the dyno with new headers and a gutted intake manifold from NWP Engineering. We didn't pick up much peak power, but ...... +30who and +22 ft/lbs over the old set up at redline. Big gains from 6k up and I bumped the redline to 7300 because the power was holding so well.

    BARBER MOTORSPORTS PARK THIS WEEKEND.............. LOOK FOR MORE VIDEOS SOON!!!!!

  • dude that car is pretty quick

  • Specs:

    VQ35, 255whp

    BC Racing Coilovers, 10K springs

    Hoosier 225/40/17 tires

    Weight, 2815lbs with me (195lbs)

    Its basically a sentra with a V6. Nothing crazy, just a freaking great car!

  • I love these cars. I have mine set up nicely for the track but not quite to this degree. Would you be willing to divulge what you've done to the car?

  • Way to go Joe!!

    Keep posting up the vids!! Looks like your car is flying!!

    Makes me really wish I kept my 06!!

  • Way to go Joe!!

    Keep posting up the vids!!

  • black honda. giants spoiler, laff

    Good driving. Looks like a TON of fun. Need to "brake hard, brake late". This was on street tires or R-Comps? Didn't hear a lot of squeal.

  • siiiiiick!!! whats the engine mod list dude"?

  • Thanks for the support! Came in 2nd both days at Road Atlanta this weekend. The car is getting better and better ;)

  • @72Smokinjoe In the words of the great Ayrton Senna, "You either commit yourself as a professional racing driver that is designed to win races, or you come second, or you come third, or you come fifth. I am not designed to come third of fifth. I race to win, and if you no longer go for a gap that exists you're no longer a racing driver." Rest in peace, the best driver that ever lived.

    Good luck next race day ;)

  • Nice driving Joe and good work justin. Team J&J haha.

  • jswenk -- the GT40 came in 5th at this event with a time of 2:00.725.

  • NASA Mid-Atlantic hosted the event so naturally, a lot of the cars were NASA prepped cars. NASA's rules say the spoiler can't be more the 8" higher than the roof line.

    Chances are, even the car with the goofy spoiler...... is faster than yours :D

  • At 5:22. That Subru's spoiler is WAY to fucken huge it looks retarded!

  • @BaseballCardFreek zomg wtf thats huge...

  • @HolyShitBobMcBob haha yeah i was like whoa what the hell!! And had to rewind it a couple of times to see how huge that thing was

  • @BaseballCardFreek haha... when i first saw it i was like Woah we got an airplane comin in outta nowhere... then i was like ohh its just a subie.... rofl... most def overkill on the wing... im sure it doesnt provide that much downforce....

  • @BaseballCardFreek haha i know right... that shits crazy... but this sentra is badass and this driver is badass... just had to put something in about that since its on this video... haha talkin about a bigass wing on a subbie on a sentra vid... rofl... wtf

  • @HolyShitBobMcBob Yeah the driver and car is bad ass he must be good to be able to keep up with some of the other cars.

  • @BaseballCardFreek haha i jumped to that part of the video and i jumped because i didn't think it would be that big

  • I don't know what would be going through my head if I was driving a car like a Ford GT or Dodge Viper and this little Sentra got right on my ass. LOL

  • the rough specs are: ~2800lbs, ~250whp and ~250wtq from a Maxima VQ35DE V-6

    It's all in the driver, chassis and suspension set up, and part selection.

    The car still has more in it ;)

  • great driving!! and DAMN that Viper ACR is fast!! He left the GT40 out of the pack pretty badly. your car has to be pretty modded and light to keep up. what have you done to it?

  • You makes us B15 owners proud, good work!

  • looking good out there. Loved the GT 40 Pass. That guys needs to give up his car. ha

  • very nice, what the hp-weight ratio on this thing

  • Some damn good driving there

  • Driving skills+Good suspension setup & powerband > raw horsepower

    the B15 should have really come with a VQ from the factory.

    Nice work!!

  • Nice work Joe, good to see the cooling issues got sorted out.

    Hope to see some more titles under your belt soon!
