Hey folks, wondering sentra b13 spare part exp? Wanted to get seg... but too exp imo... thnx for d input

Hi, Brother look your avatar is Ang Mo + Amy, Should better go SEG Limited or AE111.

The FC still better than nissan sentra b13, even the corolla is older model but the spare parts at anywhere you can find.

hehe i am also interested of SEG.

anywhere the SEG is a good car of sedan.

but on nissan sentra is just slightly bad on 1.6cc most of time is underpowered and heavy pick up with bad FC.

Thanks.

Seg better with b14........

Yup. Used to drive a b14. Powerful and consumption is surprisingly low. The downside was the gear ratio was high.

I tot b14 is bad in fc.. omg, i dam headache jor

take seg better ! any model of seg also can !

Take SEG, in term of;

- looks (depend but i think SEG looks 'smarter' hence the "mini-Lexus" nickname dubbed to it )
- resale value(most malaysians must be thinking about this )
- spareparts

either the owner of B14 did some mods or the car already got problem.

I'd used the car for 5 years stock only. its really gentle on the wallet.

Get SEG. it's much robust.

TS,
1stly which SEG version r u talking about
- 92/95 AE101 (orange-red lamps vs white-red lamps)
- 96/97 AE111
- 98/00 Facelift AE111 (2 air bags n ABS on some auto SEGs)

Hv a Y10 ADR running on GA16DS and a std 97' AE111 on 4AFE (same block running in AE101) both manual. D ADR's engine is just carb fed compared to injected n d GA16DE has aditional VTC, n chassis wise is just slightly stretched wit a torsion beam in d rear. Annual maintenance costs almost d same n easy on d wallet.

Comparin both, d pickup from d Nissan is punchier but more crude interms of NVH next to 4AFE. FC wise about d same, both around 500km easily on full tank wit some to spare. D engine in d Nissan is also running on t.chain compared to belt.

But I'm more towards d Toyota even d AE101 typically coz
- B13 cabin is a bit narrower
- Sentra is a tad older (might as well get d newer n bigger B14 wit just a bit more $$) but less exciting to drive
- s'how feel Toyota chassis lasts better (bushes last longer n feels better put together)
- GA16xx block a bit sensitive to overheating n might end up wit cracked block head. My ADR had tis last yr n had to settle wit whole transplant coz d head alone was selling 70% of d whole bock n is rare.
- brakes on Nissan Y10, B13, B14 n even current N16 bites a bit too hard n fast to me. End up locking d rear often especially in d wet.

seg price higher coz better resale value.
Maintenance wise both same lah.
Suspension Seg better.
I myself prefer b14 coz cheaper price and it's on timing chain.

Any different between the AE101 orange-red lamps and AE101 white-red lamps?...is it just the lamp color is different?

u mean this one?
http://www.mudah.my/Toyota+Corolla+SEG+1+6M-13382073.htm

and this one?
http://www.mudah.my/Toyota+Corolla+1+6+M-12933261.htm

IINM the red/white lamp was the newer model with different grill. Perhaps SEG owner can confirm this & do correct me if im mistaken

Other than different design, is there other different?...or it's just the same car with different exterior design?

according to wiki the newer version of Ae101 got minor upgrade like cup holders etc

other than that both are the same car using the same engine etc

Love AE101 so much..especially the white-red lamps...wish i could own 1 in the near future..

haiz... looks like b13 is outta question .... no moneh for seg

SEG is better in my opinion..

I just bought a 95' B14 1.6 recently.. Its fully original and the pickup/overtaking power us lousy. Consumption is around 400-500KM per full tank of RM70-80. Stock suspension is not bad on 14" steel rims(not sport rims) with Michelin 185/65/R14 tyres I can take sharp corner at 50-60KM/h without skidding on dry surfaces although I constantly hear "klock klock" sound if I hit a pot hole or small bumps..

My friend's SEG AE101(White red lamp) just fitted in a 4AGE 1.6 20V engine and the pickup/overtaking power is damn satisfying. Suspension is also way better than the B14. Toyota is famous for their long lasting suspension system and more rugged chasis..

SEG looks also more sporty after snapping on bodykits and rear spoiler compared to the too rounded B14 in my opinion..

seg nicer...

Dude, since u just got d car gv it a proper service 1st (replace plugs, lubes, flush all d oils n coolants, check for worn hoses etc). Many claim tat GA16DE's pickup is stronger compared to Toyota's 4AFE (stock vs stock), me included.

Oh, n leave d 4-throttle or older 4AGEs (blacktop, silvertop, redtop or bluetop) out of tis. All r in different leagues wit different purposes unless ur wanna bring in Nissan's SR16DE NEO, Mitsu's 4G92 MIVEC n Honda's B16s.

The salesman claims that the plugs are new etc etc.. Maybe I should give it a check and do a overhaul if needed..

Im just saying that more people fit in 4AGE engines in their everyday driving SEGs than SR16DE NEO or SR20DET in their everyday driving B14s unless they mod it for other purposes of u know what....

Dont know why but it seems that fitting 4AGE is popular.. Maybe its easier to get and parts are cheaper..
