I'm driving a 1995 B14 Sentra, got it used in 2000. Still running fine as I take very good care of the engine... Spent a LOT of money fixing up tons of old problems left over by an ignorant previous owner... Performance is still good except that the fuel consumption has gone up over the years... 40 litres of fuel can only give me 360km max (conservative driving)...

actually whether it's worth it or not, it depends on the user him or herself. some ppl feels they don't need it and some want to have it for safety purpose...

I would go for the ABS version since it could save your life. The price difference of RM5k of the models spread over a 7 year period is just under RM60/month.

Well worth the price.

Is it the current sentra price listed by TAN CHONG is firmed? Or can get some discount by some bargain at certain outlet?

I've tried... Changed sparkplugs to Denso Iridiums, Ultra plug cables (completely useless), Silver's E-Power voltage stabilizer (this is good), GC E68 Twin Power Intake System (was giving good FC in the beginning, now it's just crap)...

Other than that, I just started using one of the best performance oil lubricant available in the market, MOTUL... Can feel improvements in power and torque, engine runs a lot quieter too... But MOTUL is damn expensive... RM70+ for a 4-litre mineral grade 15W40... sweat.gif

GC E68 Twin Power Intake System? What's this? The air intake system? Did you try cleaning the filters? I'm no expert in cars but I've always wondered what causes the FC in cars to change over time.

Yea, MOTUL is expensive. I use it for my bike as well, almost RM38 per bottle (1 1/2 litres each time). But counting it as it is, you only change the oil every 5000km right? So, it ain't that bad unless you're changing it every month.

I believe Semi-Synths are much suited for older engine designs. Only the newer ones really benefit from Ful Synth, I think... Well, from reading what people have been saying with regards to the performance of their cars and the type of oil they use. hehe... anyone care to share more with regards to this and your Nissan Sentra?

Dude, read my post carefully again... I was stating that the ULTRA plug cables are useless, not the Denso Iridiums... The Denso plugs are very good, I'm using a 2nd set oredi... Engine start-up is excellent and slightly more power and torque.

Yes Sentra is use IK16 if Denso Iridium, Because sentra engine is using 5KR plug. You can try again get IK16 you will feel your car more power then before from pickup.

Hi all,

I just bought a second hand Sentra XG-L 1.8 year 2004. Really love it man.

About the FC, I feel it is just the same as my wira 1.5 (manual), not less not more.

And I tell you all, the power of Sentra 1.8 version is just OK only, not to say good and not to say bad, just nice, if I choose a 1.6 version sure I will regret.

That's all for now.

Bye.

hie all,

I move around in a Sentra N16 SG manual, 14", 1st facelift + nismo bodykit.



Must read, many things related to us:
kojima's garage

I also strongly recommend you sentra drivers to go:
n16mo forum

This forum is mostly malaysians and so many helpful topics on the n16 sentra. Probably even things you didn't realize about this car.

You're driving a N16, izzit? I thought u're driving B14. In that case, maybe using IK16 on my B14 may not be suitable. My GA16DE is different from your QG16DE.

hie all,

I move around in  a Sentra N16 SG manual, 14", 1st facelift + nismo bodykit.
Must read, many things related to us:
kojima's garage

I also strongly recommend you sentra drivers to go:
n16mo forum

This forum is mostly malaysians and so many helpful topics on the n16 sentra. Probably even things you didn't realize about this car.

Hi nlik,

Thanks a lot man for posting the forum to all of us. I have been looking up and down to search the Nissan related forum but only found a few.

The 1 you provide is damn nice and informative. notworthy.gif

I will see wheter it will help to improve my N16 1.8 a bit.

justin78, no problem . There are the real sifu's in that forum. There's 1 guy that really test and mod many things on the sentra.

Response to the other things in this thread:
4 spark plugs. original is bk5re, but now i use bk6re. Difference is 5re is hot, 6re is cold.

Speed cut? don't have lar on our car unless your car is CBU?
I already done 186kmh several times. 191kmh ONCE only on kesas wif my stock car. (of course many have gone faster lar, not bragging but just to inform)




Did you all know that at tan chong EAS, You can bring your own engine oil, spare parts. So you get hit on the service charge only.
TCEAS parts prices will be around double the costs of outside shops.

Oh may god, you should have tell me earlier, as I have just spend RM600 doing some servicing at Tan Chong Service Center (the 1 at PJ, arround sin chew jit pao and near CSA one).

The services I have done to my car:

1. Engine oil and filter change
2. Air filter element change
3. Engine tuning
4. Brake servicing
5. Coolant flushing
6. Spark plug change
7. Auto Transmission Fluid change (gear box oil)

Yup, the above mentioned services cost me RM600. rclxub.gif

Will consider to go to other mechanic shop to do servicing next time.

if your car under warranty, then should not send to outside service center. it will void the warranty.

by the way, my mileage up to 36,000++

Engine tuning is consult II, will plug just below your steering wheel.
I think this was RM70 the last time i did it.
Through this they can change the idling, see temperatures on the different sensors, change the advance ignition timing.

Save fuel here's how! smile.gif) hahaha:

- Add a few NISMO stickers to your car
- Dump in a SR20VE into the sentra
- Put big bodykits to your car + a high GT wing
- stunning 19" heavy rims.
- Change all your glass to bulletproof
- use OVERsized piping and exhaust mod


irritating things about the sentra , i think most of you (n16) have:
- Bird chirping in the engine on cold weather,morning
- 2 dub dub sound at the back suspension when go over bumps.

In the morning, you will hear a continouous chi chi chi chi chi... sound from the engine until engine warms up. This is caused by a belt there. I haven't bothered to fix this yet tongue.gif. Most probably will replace the belt to a different one to avoid this.

i used to have those...until one day i really can't stand the noise anymore, i go and complain to TCEAS...

the bird chirping sound is actually from the belting...change the belting and the chirping sound gone...at least that's what happened to mine

about the sound when go over suspension, it might be the rubber or plastic cover above your suspension has broken or tore off...tell it to TCEAS ppl and they will change it for you...they changed mine without charge...

and nlik, thanks for the forum links...like justin said, been looking for it for ages...thanks

If you plan to do minor mod then, I suggest u can try 2 things:

1. Front Strut bar. Brand: zenden, ultra racing
2. Voltage Stabilizer. Brand: Pivot, zaptor

Those is just for starter, you will have a lot more to mod if you want to.

No need to thank me like that lar, pai seh man. It's small thing to copy and paste a link here.

It was actually www.n16mo.com. Then it went down for whatever reason i dunno. So i kept waiting for it and found it again. I think the tai lou there is unker foo. Got even something like bringing extractor and exhausts parts from taiwan just for sentra drivers here.

My dream plans for the sentra. Well.. it may never come true but still fun to think about it:

1. Carbon fibre hood, bootlid, gtwing spiler and engine cover
2. Supercharger with switch. no turbo, dun like farting sound.
3. Lightweight pulley and flywheel.
4. Port and polish, Pig ECU, optimum exhaust
5. remove the side mirrors and replace with tiny camera. Screen is inside.
6. OZ,Volk dark color lightweight rims
7. remove and replace with sports grill. Juz hate the original 1.
8. Pretty GF in the passenger seat.

So wat's your dreams for the humble sentra??

My unit has drums at the back. When i pull handbrake, it does't bite enough to get the ass to swing. But easier to do in rain,wet road lar. Do you guys with the rear discs have an easier time to do this?

Sigh.. our FF sentra can't do a proper long distance drift lo. Requires FR or 4wd set to something like FR. Front mount engine,Rear wheel drive.

Pull handbrake just makes the backside slide out only. Quite fun to do as long as no close objects around. You all go try lar, then share your experience here smile.gif. Just don't share the repair cost tongue.gif.

yeah.. if botak tyres at the back and raining.. the car will be 1 hell of a genting theme park ride smile.gif) whaaha.. But mafan rite? keep switching tyres around. Once for fun and change back for normal use.

Sheesh.. y didn't nissan make a modern FR sentra? Sales will increase and beat the really nice looking civic. Then surely someone will do a comic and anime on it. Initial D nissan stage.

to put it simply, the reason why there is no FR sentra is because FR is actually less economical compared to FF car...in terms of FC...i wouldn't understand why but that's what i know lah...

Hi to all sentra owners,

My personal experience with 2 TCEAS, 1 at PJ near the CSA, 1 at Puchong near the Perodua service center.

The 1 in PJ sucks, please don't go there as their service is slow and their attitude is not good compare to the 1 in Puchong.
They will give silly reasons when they don't want to do some specific service for you, like please come at week days to change the fuel filter as we are not providing this service on weekend.
A normal person like me would need to work 9 to 5 at week days and where the hell we have spare time to go to do service at week days? That is why I choose Saturday to do my service and that stupid reason given by the technician there is damn not acceptable.

The 1 in Puchong is damn nice, in terms of service is fast, and the technician there is friendly. And for this service center, if you have any trouble or you want to do any services, you can go there at Saturday.

Just in case if you all are interested, i will provide some info on how to go to the TCEAS at Puchong.

Map:
http://tceas.tanchong.com.my/images/centre.../hrcpuchong.jpg

Address and tel:
03 - 8068 5288 / 5025
Lot 14225 KM 3.8
Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (before Puchong-S. Alam toll Plaza)
47100 Puchong
Selangor

Just to provide some good place to service your car for all sentra owners out there.

See ya!

Dude, if use wrong plugs, can it cause my car to spew smoke out of the exhaust when I floor the pedal for a quick acceleration? I have this problem... Normal driving, no smoke, but everytime I floor it, loads of smoke comes out of the back... shakehead.gif

I've just changed to new piston rings, fixed up all all engine gaskets (no more oil leak), new fuel filter, etc. and it's still giving me this problem... I suspect it's the use of wrong spark plugs (IK20 instead of IK16)... What do you think?

as i mentioned before, the sound that comes when u drive over bump might be due to a tear at the plastic or rubber covering above your tyre. take it back to TCEAS and tell them that prob...most probably they'll change it for you...

Hi! I'm a Sentra N16 FL1 owner.

That hotshot header isn't available anywhere in Malaysia. It's only available in the USA. There was a project to immitate the design as it gives the best power (7hp for a 1.8M (US Version) if I'm not mistaken) among all.

But sad to say the project failed miserably...

I finding a good sentra header because it really will make your sentra VTC work more powerful!! i already changed my sentra Header to 4-2-1 with all the piap change to same big like FronTier Paip. so now when my engine run over 4000RPM = [ VTC ON ] The VTC Open you will feel the car like got a Turbo Power make your car more powerful run!! the feel is better then FronTier Engine over 2000RPM Turbo On.

If You don't believe me, you can try at your Sentra. make sure your sentra is N16 or N16A and QG16DE or QG18DE Engine With VTC Technology. i'm trying is "QG16DE" 1.8 will more Power some one will try at 1.8 Sentra?

Mine's a 1.6A, using 17" and I've had mine full exhaust system done up together with open pod (self made CAI). Together with Irridium plugs (dunno which model though), VS and ground cables. Not much of a difference, really. Maybe it's the heavy wheels, I don't know...

Frankly, I don't think VTC is that powerful when it engaged. Not much power can be gained with boltons for QG engines. I'm guessing the real power is in the internal works?

Mine's a 1.6A, using 17" and I've had mine full exhaust system done up together with open pod (self made CAI). Together with Irridium plugs (dunno which model though), VS and ground cables. Not much of a difference, really. Maybe it's the heavy wheels, I don't know...

Frankly, I don't think VTC is that powerful when it engaged. Not much power can be gained with boltons for QG engines. I'm guessing the real power is in the internal works?

VTC is not open at pickup. VTC will start work at your engine run over 4000RPM.
i donnot you changed what brand at your header,center box and rear box. but i only know i changed my car exhaust at gear 1 and 2 RPM more easy to up. and VTC work more better then before!! i still remember my car without change exhaust the VTC work like + little power and some time cannot feel the VTC is working...ZZZzzz Many people say CVTC more power then VTC.. but this i donno la. At singapore Nissan Sunny already changed a new engine for sunny and the engine is CVTC Tec but in malaysia we still using the VTC cry.gif

Please go this website and click CVTC (Continuously Variable-valve Timing Control) you can see how work the CVTC Tec If VTC donno la.

Me no rich, if rich, I oredi changed my GA16DE for a SR16VE loh... The N1 edition of SR16 is actually the SR16VE tuned to hardcore levels... It is ULTRA rare, definitely will not be easy to find...

BTW, I just bought a new set of IK16 Denso Iridium plugs... Will install it tomorrow morning... I was comparing the IK16 with an old IK20 I have... IK16 is actually slightly longer in length than the IK20... Could it be that the length of the spark plug can cause such a big difference in power output and emissions? unsure.gif

who knows the weight of the stock 14" rims? my tyres going to be bald soon and have the itch to change to 15". So I would like to get the same weight or lighter than these existing ones.

But I think the 14" rims + ducaro ga should be more fun to drive and easy to make them squeal. I have a bad habit of doing this at 1 roundabout just before reaching my house when the coast is clear.

Wonder how the 15" will feel if compared to the existing 14" 's in wet and dry and when I get abit pedal happy??

Yup, i have mine tinted already. Can feel the difference and really not as hot as before. Also noticed my sentra after tinting looks darker than others, probably due to the original glass having some tint already.

Also I would advices you to stay and watch them do the tinting job so that you can see how the seats are removed, what's in between your doors, lookout for any bad workmanship and so on. Quite a sight to see your car naked internally haha..

.... finishing my 1/24 r32 skyline model soon.

Oo.. 1 more thing. When i got the car.. i also filled up a form myself to get the Drive ON Magazine. Those of you that drive a nissan should request for this magazine as well. It's free.

If you upgrade to 15", you'll probably get 195 60 R15 tyres, meaning ur new 195 tyres will be wider, which translates to improved grip...

My B14 is currently using a new set of 205 50 VR16 Yokohama A.drive R1 tyres. It's a mid-range performance tyre, it's surprisingly quiet and it's got very good grip but it doesn't grip as well as the previous Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 (German made) I had, that one has excellent wet grip.

Sadly no... No changes in power delivery... I drove an Indon friend to LCCT yesterday afternoon so I have a chance to test out the new plugs... While on the highway, at certain RPM (around 2,800 to 3,000 rpm at 120+km/h), the engine choked and white smokes starting billowing out of the exhaust, I press on the pedal a bit more, then no more smokes, as I let it go back down to 2,800+ rpm, the engine starts to choke again and white smokes started billowing out again... sad.gif And white smokes would come out at 2,500 rpm as well... Lots of it, actually... cry.gif Funny thing is, normal driving (in speed less than 90km/h, there's no smoke at all...

I suspect something is wrong with the ULTRA plug cables... This morning, I changed back to the OEM cables to check if there's any similar problems, haven't notice anything yet though... Maybe after work I'll go on the LDP and check...

There's only 200 units of SR16VE N1 in the world. Very expensive and rare. I've taken a ride in a fren of mine's SR20VE N16 the other day. Quite intoxicating laugh.gif

The exterior temp readings is only available on those models with digital A/C. Locally? Nope.

Tint? I used to have tint, but now running bare... Coz I tear it off liow laugh.gif

Denso Iridium IK16 use at my car nothing happen, engine no come out white smoke or black smoke. and drive at highway 6000RPM change gear also no problem and VTC Open also nothing happen. and it make my car more power then before. Sell Plug to you that people have give wrong plug to you?? please check again The Plug Box there is say IK16 or other. Your car is use "IK16 not IKH16" Remember this check baik baik.

Yes, the box and the plugs got the code "IK16" printed on it. It's the correct plug. But since I've changed the plug cables back to the OEM one yesterday, so far no white smoke problem... This morning, I tried revving my car up to 5000rpm while on my way to the office and no white smoke yet... That's why I believe the culprit is the stupid ULTRA silicon plug cables I've been using for the past few years... shakehead.gif

I totally agree with you. I once used a set of performance cable before and my symptom is worst than you, where my car will choke like hell when the engine is started.

Once change back to stock cable, every thing back to normal.

The technician said the cable got power leakage.

Radio antenna's fixed outside the car's cabin rite, so tinting the glass won't effect it. Well unless the tinting shops worker's accidentally damaged something or they manually tune your radio?

That spoiler is actually heavy but looks nice. I am using that old 1 which looks like an stretched 'U' terbalik.

New 1 looks like a small mild wave in the sea. Just curve up abit only.

But I won't sell it cause I have always driven cars with spoilers ie. wira aeroback. that I use the tip of the spoiler to judge the rear distance. ...Without it, i feel abit worried when reversing actually.

Maybe you can try chop shops. I once bought just the spoiler off a 1/2 cut old wira in a chop shop.

Yesterday i experienced our n16 1.6 cutoff at 6800rpm. Was kinda stressed yesterday night, so I drove out at 1am. didn't bother with the speed, just drive to my hearts content.

4th gear i revved into the red zone and it doesn't allow higher than 6800. The needle is like alternating between 6800 and 6500 along with the engine sound RRrrRRrr oops.gif. If you play gran turismo 4, you can see something like this also if you rev it to the max albeit slower needle jumping in the sentra.

After realizing that, i immediately lift off my right foot and the rpm needle dropped to 5000, then i put it into 5th gear and the car was back to normal acceleration.

But it's nice to drive with your own mental rev limit off.....

Modified the stock grill? I don't think I will do that, very sayang to cut it lah.

Prefer to buy a after market grill to replace it, so that I can still keep the stock grill in my garage. Next time when I wanna sell off my n16 can put back the stock grill and sell the car with higher price. tongue.gif

So people out there, if you know where to buy, please inform ok. Bye.

For PreFL, there's some shop selling in KL I think (made in Taiwan, I think) around RM200 (black, non painted). There's none available for 1FL due to 1FL model not available in Taiwan.

PreFL's grill can fit onto 1FL, but it's not a flush fit due to slightly different contour. Needs some customization to make it fit nicely...

You are right, those fakes are selling at 15-16. Original one is impossible to be around that price range. The cheapest I can get so far is RM33.

Oh yeah. I just serviced my B14 this past Sunday, changed engine oil to "MOTUL 4100 Turbolight" 10W40 semi-synths. Also changed new air and oil filter (all original). After that, there's a significant improvement in power. rclxms.gif Of course, the previously changed Denso Iridium sparkplugs also helped with the power increase. smile.gif

Hi guys, I'm not selling my car?! What makes u think I'm selling my car wor? *blur* Yup, autotrader should be a good benchmark for secondhand cars...

Guys, RM33 for the ori filter is crazy man... I've been buying from PH Auto (SeaPark) for RM16 a while now. All their Sentra filters comes with a Japanese markings. I think they parallel import it from Thailand? Not sure, but it's definately ori.

If Sentra's replacement is here, it's going to be Slyphy. That's the replacement in Japan. TC is bringing in a limited numbers of Teana is for sale. RM2XXk man... BTW, Fuga is of the Infiniti range, same as Lexus is to Toyota. Way above our bread and butter Sentra range, IMHO.

MingSon, I can bring in some EL meters for our Sentras. It's meant for PreFL ones, should be the same IMHO, but u have to take the risk if it doesn't fit properly. It cost around RM150... Let me know if you're interested?

Cheers!

as wat i know is either original or fake....
if fake product da oil filter inside will have a bigger gap in between compare to genuine filter... and of coz fake 1 will cause filter jam (i'm not sure jam which part of it)...

I've tried... Changed sparkplugs to Denso Iridiums, Ultra plug cables (completely useless), Silver's E-Power voltage stabilizer (this is good), GC E68 Twin Power Intake System (was giving good FC in the beginning, now it's just crap)...

Other than that, I just started using one of the best performance oil lubricant available in the market, MOTUL... Can feel improvements in power and torque, engine runs a lot quieter too... But MOTUL is damn expensive... RM70+ for a 4-litre mineral grade 15W40... sweat.gif

Not sure about the Sentra replacement coming in or not. But TC had brought in the City/Vios killer, the Latio 1.5 sedan. It will be launched very very soon.

If things go well as plan...I also am planning to get a new Sentra 1.6 manual this year. Why ? Because it is the only non national car with manual version below RM 100 k. Don't know why...but I always like driving manual cars...

Took my B14 to my mech fren last Saturday. My B14 is spewing tons of white smoke periodically while driving...

My mech fren initially suspected that the brake servo might be faulty... But after he changed the brake servo and cleaned the throttle body, the car is still spewing white smoke when he tested it... doh.gif Then he opened up the engine and looked at the valve seals, he changed the valve seals but it still haven't solve the problem... He called me today and told me that it's the valve guide that's causing the problem... Which is a BIG problem... and the cost of repairing it is similar to the cost of changing an engine... cry.gif

Now, he is suggesting that I change the engine... And there's one unit of the SR16VE halfcut going for RM3000 (it's cheap becoz the halfcut is missing the instrument panel, so nobody wants to buy it).

I'm now contemplating on what's the next best course of action... Sigh...

Piston ring changed oredi 6 months ago. Engine oil level is normal, that's why we are puzzled by that at first. Then we realized it's the camshaft and valves that are causing the problem.

i was doing 180km/h..dwn klia rite after toll as there r loads of

i got overtaken by dis old peugeot 406..

i was so so dissapointed!!

I am unsure of 1.6 auto but surely n16 manual 1.6 can reach 195km/h.
Since the auto is on 4 gears, manual is on 5 gears. BUT more important is the gear ratio difference of both actually.

R U on some 16", 17" which is heavy and so the top speed compromised?

Like to intro myself. call me monmon.
I am a nissan sentra n16 owner, i have not been able to find much things to mod for this car. i would like to start with ideas of an extractor, who could have one? I think hotbits might, and everco definitely don't.
i read there's no sense in modifying this car as there's no potential.
i am only looking to improve it a little, and wait till the warranty runs out before i attempt something stupid on it. smile.gif

1.5, 1.6 or 1.8.......dun buy hotbits yet.....research abit before committing. There are some custom guys who do a V. good job.

Plenty can be done to these engines, its all a question of $$$$$. If 1.8 duh..go SR20DET lo or SR20VE. If 1.6 then SR16VE.

Err... I think he's asking about modding the original engine, not changing it though... wink.gif

There's currently 2 choice, ready made. Hotbits and a chapalang brand (local). Hotbits is better from performance point of view as it's mandrel bent which should offer better flow that the crush bend chapalang brand. That's in theory. I haven't seen a back to back dyno sessions for both.

If you want good exhaust systems, try Sebring and Borla.

dude... R u sure Sebring and Borla has extractor for Sentra N16?!

IMHO, there's oni two types available off the shelves locally.

1. Hotbits (mandrel bent)
2. Chapalang brand (crush bend)

Both priced around the same with Hotbits slightly more expensive.

The best header/extractor for the QG series engine would be HotShots from US. If you can pay the money, that's the best bang for buck, NA wise...

Hi, I just registered here this evening. So I am really newbie here. I hope those involved will be a little flexible with me if I have posted wrongly or something which I should not post.

I am interested to buy a Nissan Sentra. Auto, Model 2001 onwards, 1.6, 1st owner. I am from Penang. If you are upgrading and want to sell off your Nissan, pls. give me a call at 016-4513702.

Thanks.javascript:emoticon(':thumbs:')

Finally found the Pulsar VZ-R (SR16VE NEO VVL) halfcut! nod.gif This one's condition is not as good as the previous one I found, but this one at least still have the dual airbags intact... Overall, it ain't too bad, and the halfcut seller told me that the exhaust manifold is not OEM, it's been changed to a high performance one (not sure how true this is)... I put a deposit for this halfcut liao... Now I need to get my mech friend to go check it out on Monday or Tuesday... smile.gif

Yeah, transplanting the dashboard also, if not, no point to buy the halfcut, I'm driving a B14, so no mod is required, just one to one swap as the B14 shares the same mounting points as the N15... nod.gif

Yeah, one man's sweet is another man's poison, mate... No one expects you to like this kinda thing... And I find your statement to be very, very rude... If you got nothing constructive to say, please keep it to yourself.

Tuning up the Sentra? Well, I got a word of caution... Don't ever fcuk with the cam shafts/cam timing of the engine unless you have an expert mechanic who knows a lot about Nissan engines...

Sentra will not be phase out anytime soon, ETCM oredi announced that the Sentra will continue to be on sale alongside the Latio...

Aduh doh.gif You didn't indicate you were joking leh, dude... Anyway, icon_rolleyes.gif

I read about it on Paul Tan's site, perhaps Paul made a mistake when he wrote his report... I personally felt strange why would they still continue the Sentra line becoz the Latio is using 1.6 and 1.8 liter engines instead of the rumoured 1.5 liter...

Not many people pimp up their Sentras becoz most of the people who buys a Sentra are usually those who had oredi have a family or those in their late 30s and above, typically those who are not so inclined in pimping their rides... Vios and City different as their buyers are more of the younger crowds.

ok..well monocoque chassis usually comes in a piece right..
but not all car build all the part together like roof and frontal part of the car to the chassis..means the front crash zone is build to the chassis by stitch weld to the chassis either to the strut area or till A pillar area..

my question is..
does the original sentra B14 has this stitch area above the door close to A pillar area and rear door above the Door area too?

means if u open the rubber thing,you can see theres 2 different piece of stacked and joint together metal..

I'm a B14 owner and as far as I know it doesn't have the so-called "stitch points" or welding points in those area you mentioned... Hope this helps...

Dude, if you're really serious about getting the car, go do an X-Ray on the car lar, that way u sure will know if the car kena potong before or not... Just spend some money there to get a peace of mind loh...

And go PUSPAKOM, not JPJ for these kinda checks...

feedback time (advise and opinions welcome):
i just took my SG-L on a 140kmph ride on kesas highway and i found out that i) the car tends to suave quite a lot to the left.
ii) RPM needle tends to 'jump' between 4 to 6 when press the accelerator
iii)the road seems very smooth, but my car seems to bump around and go bouncing. (from wat i heard, sentra is supposed to give a smooth ride)

wat do you guys think? could it be an allignment and suspension problem?
and take note, my car is almost brand new, only 300km old..

1) Looks like ur car needs alignment. Remember to check toe and camber setting as well.
2) Ur Sentra is running on Overdrive gear which is weak when going up hill, hence it drops down to 3rd gear to get back up to speed.
3) Since ur car is brand new, there shouldn't be any problems with your absorbers and springs. This bumping and bouncing could be caused by bad alignment of the front wheels.

Also, check all your tyres for irregular wear...

That could mean your disc brakes are not smooth or warped, time to skim the brake discs... If it's warped, then time to change to a set of new brake discs... It could also mean that ur wheel alignment is off, check your wheel alignment too...

Ah, a B13 owner, welcome welcome! rclxms.gif

SR16VE N1 is ultra rare, I'm not even sure if it's possible to source for one here in M'sia. Even if you did get to find one, expect to pay more than RM14K for it... sweat.gif

I just bought a SR16VE (Pulsar VZ-R) halfcut a few weeks ago to be installed into my B14...

Toe and Camber (and Caster) are settings found on wheel alignment, which is related to the suspension...

Find out more about Wheel Alignment
If I'm not mistaken, N16 doesn't allow caster angle changes. We can however hav camber (with camber screws) and toe settings.

FYI, as far as I know, there are atleast two N16 that is running on NISSAN 4 pot calipers (I know 1 of them, which he is using the set from R32). That's not those elcheapo 'Belembo big brake cover kit'. Jus my two cents.

Yeah, I believe all Sentras have fixed Caster angles...

OK, now I see it... It's a 4-pot caliper... biggrin.gif


Added on June 9, 2007, 1:29 amOh yes, a little update on my car modding project... This afternoon I went down to Balakong to pay for the SR16VE halfcut I booked a few weeks ago... Then watched as they lift the halfcut onto the lorry to be transported to my mech's workshop in Gombak... The halfcut also came with a fuel tank and rear axle and disc brakes...

Bloody hell, I tell you... As I led the lorry to the workshop, it started to rain heavily, luckily the lorry driver put up a cover over the halfcut... And the traffic jam to KL was damn terrible... shakehead.gif Then finally reached my mech's workshop (it was almost flooding outside the workshop!), my mech's boys painstakingly hoisted the halfcut down from the lorry and placed it inside the workshop...

So, the hard part is done... Now, for the even harder part... Arranging for my car to be spray painted... Then start work on the installation... Oh yeah, need to ask my mech to steam clean the engine too as per recommended by a friend... nod.gif Let's see how it goes tomorrow...

I'm driving a 1995 B14 Sentra, got it used in 2000. Still running fine as I take very good care of the engine... Spent a LOT of money fixing up tons of old problems left over by an ignorant previous owner... Performance is still good except that the fuel consumption has gone up over the years... 40 litres of fuel can only give me 360km max (conservative driving)...

Yo Vanquish,

Try increase your ignition timing to 16 degrees and use at least Ron97 petrol fuel.

Ummm no....I did not mean that. bushes in your anti roll bar to increase castor.

pillow ball, damn harsh. and the settings run out so fast you will become an expert at alignment.


max safe timing is +15......GA16de can only take RON97 regardless its stated on the the fuel flip.

Hi, Sentra is using 114.3 x 4 configuration, same as Saga / Mitsus (I think?). Usually for Taiwan rims, the offset would be around 40 or so. Just to let u noe so that it's easier to sell with more detailed infos.

Yo... got my sentra 1.8 xg-l year 2005 model 2 months ago. i still keep my year 1989 sunny with me coz it's still damn fun to drive a manual.

I am happy with my sentra currently, but not really happy with my driving coz i have to drive like an uncle. Sentra pick up is so so only coz of huge rims i think.

FC is good with 16" sports rims( 205/45/R16 ), been getting constant RM0.16/km with city n highway driving. Been hitting ~140kmph at highways at ~3600rpm-3800rpm. Going to change to 205/50/R16 soon.

The only thing i don't like about my sentra 1.8 is the leather seat. damn hard and not really comfy while sunny's seat is soft n nice. i love it. tongue.gif

Hi bro, I think you're under sizing ur tires?

Stock is at 195/60-15 rite? The correct upsizing would be 205/50-16 and to go 1 up more would be 205/45-17 or 215/40-17.

It's a B14, mate... The N15 Pulsar shares a lot of similar parts (including chassis) with the B14... nod.gif

Hey, sending my n16 1st facelift for 40,000k service this friday. Need to get them to fix my in car roof light and the rear glass heater.

Wanna ask those who already passed this, what are the costs and maybe where,what to buy for parts. As usual wanna bring in own parts for 40,000k service and save some costs. Thanks.

Well, so far the mods I've done is just a full transplant, meaning almost everything from the SR16VE halfcut were transferred over to my Sentra, except for the ABS...

Yeah, the brakes are definitely bigger in size... Bigger than the ones on the N16 Sentra... My future mod may include installing custom reinforcement bars under the car to beef up the chassis rigidity...

Thanks, dude. Yeah, the 8,000rpm redline is a beautiful sight... wub.gif

NEO VVL works quite similarly to Honda's VTEC, read below to find out what's the difference:

QUOTE
Nissan Ecology Oriented Variable Valve Lift and Timing (commonly known as NEO VVL) is an automobile variable valve timing technology developed by Nissan. VVL varies the timing, duration, and lift of valves by using hydraulic pressure switch between two different sets of camshaft lobes. It functions similarly to Honda's VTEC system. One difference from Honda's VTEC system, is that NEO VVL engages the change of intake and exhaust cams independently.

I dun think they are going to bring in the new C-1 platform Sentra (USDM)... Japan had completely phased out the Sunny/Sentra and Pulsar ranges and replaced them with the Latio and Tiida ranges... I dun think there will be anymore new Sentras...

N16 Sentra 1.8 QG18DE engine uses a 4-speeder auto...

Not too sure which is faster, anyone got the specs of the 2 cars in question?

Actually, this thread is catered to all Sentra owners regardless of the model generation.

I nearly bought the N16 several years back but decided not to when I discovered that the aircond system does not include blowing cold air to the bottom (the driver and front passenger footwells)... laugh.gif

So, I stayed on with my B14... Thanks for your compliments, no tuning is done at the moment becoz I haven't even gotten to drive it yet... Still in workshop but it will be ready this week...

I'm not sure if everything is perfect or not, I just hope that it won't breakdown suddenly... sweat.gif The gearbox is the OE manual gearbox that came with the Pulsar VZ-R halfcut...

Yeah, I have the mynismo URL, why?

The lower blower is actually just a mechanical switch that redirects the cold air down to the foot wells, even the cheapest car in M'sia has it, so why Tan Chong went El Cheapo on the N16? The Singaporean and Thai N16 Sunny has it also... It's important to me becoz on a very hot day, it's nice to have some cold air blowing at the feet... And it's also good when your feet is wet after getting into the car from heavy rain, etc...

As long as ur aircond is not at full blast, it won't blow up the dusts... Just turn the knob halfway between upper vent and bottom vent is good enough...

Haha, not really a tactic la, just an experience...

My car is actually out from the workshop oredi... Tested the car for a few days and found some very minor electrical problems... Engine is working fine, the new clutch needs to be bedded in, still feels a bit un-smooth...

Took the car back to my mech to fix up the minor problems last Saturday, and it's oredi been fixed... The next thing he'll do today is to bring the car to Puspakom for inspection and JPJ approval...

Still got a long way to go... Apparently, I need to submit an application to JPJ Putrajaya first to inform them of my car being converted from an Auto trans to a Manual trans car... ONLY THEN can I take my car to Puspakom for inspection... Weird law... So, now waiting for the approval letter from JPJ Putrajaya...

The power of the VVL is good, but 95% of the time u dun even need to use it... The engine has a lot of pulling power from about 1,200 to 3,000rpm (ample torque)... There's hardly any need to rev the engine high... Unless you intend to race with another car... biggrin.gif

One more thing I realized that after the conversion, my Sentra now has a bloody huge turning radius... shakehead.gif According to the original car's spec sheet, the Pulsar VZ-R's turning radius is a whooping 5.2m! shocking.gif That's huge for a compact class car... A buddy of mine told me, this is normal for performance cars... All performance cars have big turn radius... unsure.gif

The GTS is basically a normal B14 Sentra slapped on with GTS bodykits... That's it... Spec wise, it's the same as any B14 Sentra...

Haha, yeah, that's what a buddy of mine told me, all high performance cars have huge turn radius... laugh.gif

So far, I only managed to "activate" VVL twice... sweat.gif And that was only for testing to make sure the VVL kicks in... biggrin.gif

Hey, you guys usually TT mana ah? It would be cool to meet other Sentra owners. nod.gif

Gosh, sorry to hear of your predicament. How much does it cost to fix back the boot lock?

Ur Sentra is 1.6, right?

yaya.. 1.6 manual. I don't want to fix the boot key hole already yawn.gif , leave it as it is. It will latch closed and won't open even if you go over speed bumps and can be opened with the remote or under seat lever, so I will just let this be. Hopefully it will be a deterrent to future tries.

Car at workshop, so replace lower arm, suspension and parts around there. Therefore the brakes got removed as well. Accident lor, genting highlands downhill wet , claims me as another victim.

Then only I learn, car under 5 years, the workshop must use back original manufacturer parts in the claim. After the 5th year, you can't blame them if they wanna use inferior stuff. So hence they got the replacement nismo bodykit from tan chong, ori suspension from them (still APM) and I got to take a picture of the box tongue.gif .

Haha.. After engine cover removed, look like your VVL engine,.... minus the performance smile.gif) haha

But, quite interesting to see how they change the spark plugs for our cars.

Also, which shop do you guys recommend to DeCat and replace the whole exhaust setup? My 3 years warranty just over and i'm itching to do this already wink.gif) . Still Lai exhaust center ka?? thanks.

Oh I see... Kesian... Your rims is 14" or 15"?

The NEO VVL engine looks like this woh...

Why you wanna DeCat your exhaust system? Just get a good extractor, mid section and exhaust section not really that important.

Ya.. Spray gold and then I will add a silver badge [NISSAN Twin Cam 24 Valve]... tada!! skyline rb26 wannabe. haha.

yes ori 14" rims. Feel bad after that, so I trade in the rims and got a set of 15" k-speeds. Not a nice feeling driving accident rims.

I talked to the TCEAS person doing my car. He say some cefiro owner complain of lack of power and increase fuel consumption. So they "pecah" the catalytic converter and the owner was happy after that. I think Old cat's need to be replaced or removed as it will be too restrictive.

Haha, RB26 is a bit too much, man... sweat.gif

OK, changed to 15" liao, so what tyres r u using right now? I'm using a 16" Lenso on my Sentra, and a set of crappy Yokohama A.drive R1... Seriously, dun get this tyre, it ain't worth it... I am dying to change back to Eagle F1 GS-D3...

Well, cat converter do need to be changed after a period of time... But your car so new leh...

haha.. I now also use the set of "crappy Yohohama A drive". Do you notice the wide waterway design on these A drives smile.gif) haha.. so obvious when you put other tyres side by side.

These are still better than the stock Ducaro GA previously. And I am quite happy with this. Never tried the eagle tyres so I won't know. Ducaro GA is fine on dry roads, but I will never take the Ducaro GA again if I am serious of safety on wet roads.

Even on a wet flat road, it's kinda easy to get the backside or the whole car to slide out, don't mention Genting wet. I will not forget that loss of grip experience on genting...

Apart from that, the sentra's butt is weird. Taking a 90 degrees corner at 60kmh on uneven tar road , the butt will abruptly jerk slightly sideways.

Oh, you're using A.drive R1 or normal A.drive? Wide waterway design also useless la, R1's wet performance is not good...

Eagle F1 is famous for its superb wet performance, and it's a high performance tyre so it can't be compared to the likes of Ducaro GA or A.drive R1...

Sentra's rear is multi-link beam set-up, one of the most crappy and cheap-to-manufacture suspension available today... And the it's set up in such a way that the rear wheels has a negative camber, this is the cause of poor roadholding of the rear wheels in our Sentra...

NISMOgan, i register and read stuff on n16mo forum. Learn many things there.

But my car is stock only just like the thousands of sentras here, not modded like you guyz. so I dun comment there and pretty soon.. haha I think the forum turns off my account. tongue.gif So understandably the last I read was probably many months ago, something about bringing taiwan made exhausts for n16. Don't know if that came true or not. Care to share it here?

Yes downhill rain with 3 passengers. Not even 10 minutes, 2 workshop ppl already negotiating with me to tow to their workshop, insurance things. Pretty soon a few more was parked at the other side of the road waiting for their turn at getting to me. S**t!, hated the whole experience.

[buddhist- so later on I took it as pay back for karma I did b4]

I would get the latio. tongue.gif . I hate the interior space of the sentra. Honestly, it is cramped inside and the Latio space is a real welcome improvement. You mentioned you are attracted to the latio sport already. Don't regret many years down the line just to save a few thousand.

Current M'sian sentra tech also several years old already.

Just had my N16 car battery changed. Yesterday, the car had trouble starting. Turn the key and the car is like caughing but not starting. After a few tries then the car came alive. The blinking red dot on the dashboard also doesn't light up already when lock the door, which is probably a good indicator that the battery is died-ed and not the alternator.

So today went scouting for battery and finally did the change at Brother's Klang. Bought the GP NS70L which was the same as the original one that came with the car. Surprisingly the address on the warranty card is Meru Klang. So if any problems.. haha I can go to the factory if I wanted to.

Costs me RM198 for the batt and RM5 for installation work. Hmm.. quite simple to make the swap actually. Just need to remember -ve unplug first and for the new battery connect +ve first. But RM5.. just let them do it lar.

Yeah.. battery prices are up and the maintenance free one's were about RM240 and above.

That battery lasted me 3 years 4 months.

1.8 XE? I dun think that spec exists, I guess u mean 1.8 GXE... Not much difference between 1.8 GXE and 1.6 GXE in terms of mainenance since both spec share a lot of similar parts... Unless u're comparing it with the 1.6 XE where the rear brakes are drums instead of discs...

Yeah, 1.8 has better power and FC, the N16 is heavier than the B14, so, 1.8 is better suited for the car...

Just to report in for you guys reference tongue.gif . I just came back from Penang mainland.

Klang to Penang Sg. Bakap, enter at seafield, exit at jawi toll; my sentra n16 consumed exactly 1/2 tank and 2 small bars of petrol. From Penang Sg. Bakap I filled in RM50 to full tank again with Primax 3 before heading back to Klang. Once I reach Klang, it finished 1/2 tank and 2 small bars again. So It's RM50 for fuel 1 way Penang - Klang distance.

When you overtake lorries or buses on the highway, your car tends to sway closer to the other vehicle. I'd say the sentra has less of this symptoms compared to wira, camry or cefiro that I have driven before. Haha.. maybe the bodykit does help ? laugh.gif

My car stock specs for this particular fuel consumption, cause your's could be different:

Hi there, it's better if you change both sides together. I can't remember how much they cost but it's reasonable priced... U can go to PH Auto in SEA Park, PJ to buy the parts, they sell at very reasonable prices...

"Twin loop exhaust"? U mean those twin tail pipes, izzit? Actually, u're better off getting a decent quality single pipe performance exhaust from Greddy or Blitz or HKS... Those twin exhaust doesn't really serve much purpose except for looks...

sledge : actually theres tons of aftermarket parts for N16 but of coz, the ready made one was close to zero. Most of N16 club members custom made it, and after that the rest will be cheaper smile.gif if u like to share ur experience and know more do visit ww.n16.com.my

Bro. I am thinking of buying a second-hand Sentra 1.6A from a friend, year make is 2005, basic model, without ABS, metallic colour, condition is okay, just some small scratches here and there.

What is the fair market value for this car presently?

Thanks for your advice.

vanquish : whao, thats a stock looking monster !! hehe btw the dashboard meter was sr16ve's one? and yea every1 seems like recomending PH Auto, thats too far for me, any place near seri gombak or kl to get genuine parts? i heard theres a lot immitation looks like ori, scary also to simply buy
*
Yeah, the meter panel is from the SR16VE, the VVL won't work if it's not used with the original meter panel, same goes for the ECU...

Seri Gombak or KL area I'm not very familiar but I can ask my mech for you since his workshop is nearby the Gombak/Setapak border... Yeah, loads of imitation out there, that's why need to buy from dependable spare parts shops...

Bro. I am thinking of buying a second-hand Sentra 1.6A from a friend, year make is 2005, basic model, without ABS, metallic colour, condition is okay, just some small scratches here and there.

What is the fair market value for this car presently?

Thanks for your advice.

Dude, I recommend you go and buy a copy of the latest Autotrader magazine, start your research from there...

You know how the magazines are like la. RM5X,XXX and RM6X,XXX, many 'X's and most of the prices stated in that magazine are quoted by dealers and not private owners.

How much would you pay for the car? Your personal take on the market value of the car.

vanquish : okie thanks in advance, wait for ur good news. aiks i see, i tot the meter panel was just a 'background'? most importantly the ecu, wiring etc? now i notice the redline is at 8k, but i rmbr i passage in my fren's SR16 was 8k++, he might be redlining i forgot

bravogila : yeah man, depends on condition, do ur research, or bring some1 who know how to value the car to help u. It was a reliable car and most of em has no problem unless the previous owner abuse it.

Well, the dealer price is actually the market price marked-up a bit... Dude, there's also The Star Classfieds, check from there also... I can't help you becoz I'm not driving an N16, so I do not know the going market price for this model...

No prob, mate... smile.gif

Well, that's what I was told by some of the SR16 guys in ZTH... Your fren's SR16VE could be the N1 version, the 197bhp one... Extremely rare engine, only 500 units produced...

How much did ya fren offer you? Im searching around for exactly this car too. I guess its around 60k to 65k.. The 2005 is the round look right? 2004 is the the older look.. correct?

Comparing this car to City around the same age. Think the price is more or less the same

There's only 3 versions of B14 in M'sia... One is pre-facelift, one is facelift, and one is GTS (facelift version with GTS bodykit)... All versions uses the same GA16DE engine, facelift and GTS has driver's airbag and ABS... And also the final batch of facelift B14s have 4-wheel disc brakes but very limited units...

U mean N16 or B14? Both models uses different oil filters... N16's one is smaller in size compared to B14's...

Coincidentally, my SR16VE engine uses the same oil filter as the N16's QG18DE and QG16DE...

I'm using MOTUL 4100 Turbolight 15W40 Semi-Synthetic...

It's a very good engine oil, but a bit on the expensive side... One can of 4 liter is almost the same price as the Shell Helix Ultra Synthetic 4 Liter Motor Oil... sweat.gif

Hey NISMOgan, long time no see indeed... No plans for CNY, got TT ah? Cool, let me know the time and venue, I hope I can make it... nod.gif

The number of grades for MOTUL semi-synths available locally I'm not so sure, need to check with my mech... Oh, a correction here, the 4100 Turbolight is actually 10W40 and not 15W40 as I previously stated...

You can check out this Webpage below for more info on MOTUL's local product lineup...

No lubang to get it cheaper yet but I get mine from my mech who can only give me a bit of discount... Better than nothing, I guess...

If your N16's mileage oredi exceeded 100,000km, you should just settle with Semi Synth... And I think 6100 is very expensive... sweat.gif

Well, my car is still in stock form, I'm not planning on tuning it to the full anytime soon... Aside from the HKS Super Flow, ULTRA plug cables and JASMA extractor, everything else is stock...

1.8 GXE is a good car but a bit too high on the FC, mainly due to heavy body and underpowered engine...

sledge, as far as i heard from people thay are using nissan matic D
Castrol is for engine oil

i`m driving a Manual anyway, not 100% sure smile.gif
just buzz them and ask

i read in the n16 forum that TC is using castrol as ATF, where after they change to matic D, the transmission is smooth and less jerking when changing gears....
argh, i think i gotta try... tired with the jerking -.-"

hmm, i find that my n16 very bumpy at the back when going thru bump... less comfortable than the grand livina (i was sitting inside when my fren test drove it few days back)... perhaps my absorber going bad? hmm.gif
and body roll was very obvious.... icon_question.gif
anyone added anti roll bar to their ride? i am not sure if stock n16 has anti roll bar ... but it doesnt felt solid when cornering...


Added on February 28, 2008, 11:42 pmah, btw, it is mentioned that advance ignition timing can make the engine more "torquey" in early rpm range....
for n16 that is distributor-less, how do we get the ignition timing tuned??

Actually, it has nothing to do with the car's engine displacement being 1.8 liters... It's more about the engine's state of tune and the car body it is attached to...

For the benefit of everyone here, the following was what me and north discussed about in our PMs just now...

QUOTE
northiswara:
ur pickup power good or not at 1,000-3,000rpm using sr6ve?

Vanquish:
The pick up is definitely better than GA16DE but not hardcore powerful lar...

northiswara:
better? wah seh.......... ga16de low end power already not bad dah, with this sr16ve ur body can stick to the chair even ur ball can stick inside ur batang too when u press the accelerator til finish. haha.............

how is the FC like if compare to ur GA16de. ur ga16de was auto . manual last time? u sell ur ga16de or trade in?

Vanquish:
Actually, not that powerful la... It's only slightly better than GA16DE only... Hehehe...

FC is reasonable, better than my previous GA16DE... One tank of 45 liters can give me about 450KM, slightly less if I rev up to 7,200 RPM... tongue.gif So far, dun dare to rev up to 7,800 RPM, scared that the cams will putus... sweat.gif

northiswara:
the cam will putus? u meant the timing belt putus or cam? ur engine use timing belt or chain? cam is made from steel wont putus one. haha........

sorry to say but ur FC is higher than my ga16de. but this is normal. sentragts also has that kind of FC too. if the VVL on sure the power is more more than ga16de.

US people BOT this sr16ve and can get 300++ whp. hehe............ this engine really tahan lasak.

very seldom this thing can putus unless u use lousy engine oil. dont worry lar. rev til redline sometimes syok marr............
if putus then go chop shop find another one lorr. haha.......... i heard its RM800 only for sr16ve cam.
sr16ve parts not tat lousy one larr. don worry. such a powerful engine need to rev kaw kaw lorr.............. canot drive like uncle.

oh OD.
normal drive u will on the OD, means u will use the highest gear as fast as possible.
if u OFF it, there will be O/D OFF light show in dashboard, then the gearbox will use 3 gear only instead of 4 gear in the driving. when u want to switch to low gear while overtake use it. if u press ur accelerator more the gb will also switch to lower gear too.

correct me if i wrong.

No need to stop to turn on or off O/D... O/D is an overdrive gear ratio (which is the 4th gear in Sentra's case)... While you're driving at a constant speed on the road, switching the O/D off simply means that u "shift down" from 4th gear to 3rd gear...

dont worry worry bro. if got monsoon wind blow vios, sure the vios pelanting into drain while ur 1.8 still sit on the road stable. hehe...................
vios is light car compare to B14 and new sentra. i bet the weight of vios is something like the old toyota LE.

here is some post i read from other forum. just to share with u guys that runs on sr16ve or sr20ve.

OK here it goes people here are the answers to your quetions. The SR16VE VVL
N1 200 HP motor cams will not just bolt into the SR16VE VVL 175 HP or into the
SR20VE VVL 190 HP motors.

The regular SR16VE VVL 175 HP motor at 7,800 RPMs and the SR20 VE VVL 190 HP
at 7,000 RPMs parts and cams are interchangable. The SR16 175 HP motor makes
about 109 hp per Litre and the SR20 190 HP motor makes about 95 HP per litre.
These motors have the same 11-1 compression but remember that the rod ratio,
crank stroke and piston volume are diffrent. The piston size on all the VVL
motors are the same 86mm. If you put the pistons from a SR16VE 175 HP motor in
a SR20VE you will get a compression ratio some where in the low 12- 1 region,
if I am correct did that calculation of the top of my head.

If you get the cams from a SR16VE 175 HP motor and put them in a SR20VE motor
you will get about 218 HP at 7,800 RPMs if you follow the HP per displacement
comparison I gave, and compression, head and intake deisgn are all the same
the only changing factor being displacement. Then this power change should be
about equal and linear which would give the figures I gave.

Remeber people that NA HP is much more smoother, quicker delivered and has a
larger area under the curve when compared to simular turbo equiped motors. I
am not saying they make more HP I am saying that NA motors tend to use their
power band more effectivly. You will find that if you have a turbo motor that
runs 14.0 at say 101 MPH in the 1/4 mile and you find a NA motor that runs
14.0 in the 1/4 the NA motor will have a trap speed of about 98 MPH which is 3
miles slower even though these motors ran the same time. The turbo motor will
start to run away after the 1/4 mile but you can see given a certain distance
the NA motor competes with less Hp. The turbo motor will win the 1/2 mile test
and the top speed test just because it has more HP. Get 2 motors with the same
peak HP NA and Turbo, I will take the NA motor because the NA motor will run
quicker 1/4 mile times and get to the top speed just the same as the turbo
motor will.

I will say with confidence that it is very easy to build a low 13 sec SR20VE
VVL motor. Here ist goes . Cams from a SR16VE VVL 175 HP motor. Have a 4 into
1 header made with runners about 32 inchs long and pipe size of 1 3/4 inchs
going into a 2 1/2 in merge collecter. 2 1/2 inch exhaust. Nice cold induction
with a JWT Comp and a Nismo fuel presure regulater. given what I just listed,
I feel that 235 hp is easly had, Or about 205-210 WHP. Also if you compare
that with say a B18 motor that makes that type of WHP these honda motors will
rum in the 13s also but remember that the VVL motors have a much larger and
stronger HP curve as well as torque curve when compared to the B18 VTEC
motors. I have already done this motor test already with a friend in the
islands who has a Pulsar VVL and he bought the SR20VE VVL motor from me and
put his SR16 cams in the motor and put in the same headers I listed and I made
him a cold induction and a 2 1/2 in exhast and the car is a bullet. The car
runs about 12.8-13.2. He has no 1/4 mile track to run it on but has raced
people with cars that have run simular time and he has run even or beaten
them. His car does come with a quicker ratio box which was equiped that way
from factory given it came with the SR16VE motor.

could anyone tell me B14 tyre size?? i mean, which size is suitable to stock rim of B14..

BTW, oso recommend me which type is most recommended for normal driving.. juz sumtimes got rev a bit only..


Added on March 8, 2008, 2:26 ami know dy.. is 185/60/R14 or 185/65/R14.. so would 60 series tyre will decrease FC?

BTW, which 1 of these is best choice:
Michelin XM1
Goodyear Ducaro GA
Falken 326
Continental CC
Bridgestone (wat model)

Do Michelin XM1 have good grip on wet road?pls help me choose..thx.

the stock steel rim is 14 inch. i used to use the stock rim. but now i change to 15" sport rim.

BTW, oso recommend me which type is most recommended for normal driving.. juz sumtimes got rev a bit only..
which tyre? so far i only tested michelin, good year, silverstone. if u ask me, i would say wat is ur budget? if not much budget then get a goodyear. if got budget get michelin.

Added on March 8, 2008, 2:26 ami know dy.. is 185/60/R14 or 185/65/R14.. so would 60 series tyre will decrease FC?
if u want decrease FC. get a light weight sport rim 15" then put in 195/50/R15 or 195/55/R15 then pump nitrogen gas. if u are using sr16ve then 16 or 17" also no problem.

BTW, which 1 of these is best choice:

If you want to maintain good FC, stick with 14" rims... 185/65/R14 is ideal becoz u get better comfort than 60 series...

And no, 60 series won't decrease ur FC... If you wanna upgrade to a larger size, I recommend you upgrade to 15" only, 195/55/R15... 16" is gonna overwhelm ur engine and affect ur FC significantly...

I'm using 16" rims (205/50/R16) on my Sentra, it doesn't affect the FC too much becoz I'm using SR16VE engine, which is a more powerful engine than the GA16DE...

N16 rear suspension is same as B14 which is using torsion beam suspension with a big bar linking left and right wheel together.
if not mistaken N16 rear dont have anti roll bar.

the front i think got. its a short one. but not very sure.

north : aiyo no sifu la i`m learner too hehe, yea ultra racing is good, i`m planning to put ARB on this brand too

sledge : yea i agree with u the stock 14" rim + tyres is way too scrub for fast cornering, i still rmbr when i drove my ex camry at the same speed, same turn, my N16 lost control !

the best thing u can do now is to change to wider and better tyres + rims (optional) and also suspension, it will like increase ur handling more than 100%, i never lost grip since then, i`m using 205/50 R16 now with moderate tyres and rims. Going to install ARB when pocket allows hehee, go up genting my rear tyres still coming up if going to 'my' limit biggrin.gif (according to fren following behind). If u interested in getting ultra racing ARB let me know, i can get u some discount smile.gif

Quoted by northiswara:

i heard that u changed ur O2 sensor in ur GA16de from a thread n LYN.
where u change it? tan chong? is it just take out then plug and play replacement?
how to notice if the O2 is not really functioning good? so far there is no engine check light on while the engine is running. but i always smell rotten egg from the exhaust. at first i tot is the oil that kena burnt then there is no engine oil loss so now i suspect is O2 sensor not very good. moreover my car power is a bit sluggish.
i got comparing my exhaust smell with my fren vios(mielage 50,000km) exhaust smell. his vios exhaust smell is ok, dont have rotten egg smell. but mine got rotten smell a bit with fuel smell. so guess my AFR is not correct now. by the way my mileage is 130,000km and the car is 10yrs old.


Dude, I think U may have heard wrongly, I never changed my O2/Lambda sensor on my previous GA16DE... I also had the same problem with my GA16 last time, got this really bad rotten egg smell from the exhaust... Before u change ur O2 sensor, have you car's engine re-tuned first and see what will happen... O2 sensor usually can last up to 200,000KM...

i saw from the autozine school website the diagram of torsion beam and it looks like our sentra rear setup. anywhere there is a beam tat attach the left and right wheel together like vios. so this beam can be lower stabiliser bar. hehe.......

from a thread in LYN, u mentioned this :

2004 Accord 2.4... How much mileage have you clocked up so far?

Price on O2 sensors varies from car to car. My B14 Sentra's O2 sensor (Bosch) cost around RM300, but some may cost higher depending on make and model.

Dude, I suggest you take your Accord to another trusted mechanic to check if it's really the O2 sensor that's giving problems. If he can confirm that, only then go to buy the part.

As to which shop to go to, it really depend on where you are, man. If you're in PJ area, by all means go to PH Auto.

O2

u also has the rotten egg smell? hmm............ there are 2 things that i am suspecting now that is :
1. O2 sensor not functioning well so ECU tends to inject more fuel and making the engine running rich.
2. O2 is functioning but the ECU memang tends to run on richer AFR. therefore a piggyback is needed to correct this thing.

van,
everytime u start engine is it easy? my car need 3-4seconds to start which is a bit slow. my fren N16 need 1-2 second to start only.

how do u mean by retune the car? use piggyback?


Added on March 13, 2008, 11:31 amO2 Sensor failures

Normally, the lifetime of an unheated sensor is about 30,000 to 50,000 miles. Heated sensor lifetime is typically 100,000 miles. Failure of an unheated sensor is usually caused by the buildup of soot on the ceramic element, which lengthens its response time and may cause total loss of ability to sense oxygen. For heated sensors, normal deposits are burned off during operation and failure occurs due to catalyst depletion, similar to the reason a battery stops producing current. The probe then tends to report lean mixture, the ECU enriches the mixture, the exhaust gets rich with carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, and the mileage worsens.

Leaded gasoline contaminates the oxygen sensors and catalytic converters. Most oxygen sensors are rated for some service life in the presence of leaded gasoline but sensor life will be shortened to as little as 15,000 miles depending on the lead concentration. Lead-damaged sensors typically have their tips discolored light rusty.

Another common cause of premature failure of lambda probes is contamination of fuel with silicones (used in some sealings and greases) or silicates (used as corrosion inhibitors in some antifreezes). In this case, the deposits on the sensor are colored between shiny white and grainy light gray.

Leaks of oil into the engine may cover the probe tip with an oily black deposit, with associated loss of response.

An overly rich mixture causes buildup of black powdery deposit on the probe. This may be caused by failure of the probe itself, or by a problem elsewhere in the fuel rationing system.

Applying an external voltage to the zirconia sensors, e.g. by checking them with some types of ohmmeter, may damage them.

Well, for my SR16VE engine, morning engine start up is as smooth as silk... Takes only 1/2 to 1 sec to get the engine started... My previous GA16DE also doesn't take long to start, roughly 1 sec as well...

What I meant by re-tune is doing a diagnostic check on the ECU and see if there's any irregularities in any of the paramaters...

1 sec to start ur ga16de? mine long lor. 3-4 seconds. need to hear the engine spin few times then baru start. maybe the AFR is too rich so canot start so fast. sometimes the engine will die one if i drive without letting the engine warm up for 1-2min idle. hehe....... sounds like fuel is too rich so the engine can die without warm up.

i have a GA16DE factory service manual with me. to check the O2 sensor u not just need to use the palm/diagnostic tool to check but u also need a voltmeter to test the O2 terminal. problem is how professional is TC mechanic. hehe.............. some of the TC mechanic talk as if they are god one. they say no rosak means no rosak. haha.......... and how experience are they in checking O2 sensor is another question. i saying so because not much people wil actually ask mechanic to test their O2 sensor. majority people thinks that O2 sensor has a span life of life time including me until i found out that this O2 can be bad as early as before 100,000km mileage. the life time for heated O2 sensor is 100,000miles roughly 160,000km. after u mentioned u only need 1 sec to start ur car, just like my fren n16, 1 sec to start his car. i start to fear that my O2 sensor is actually bad.

no offence guys.

Actually, it sounds more like your starter motor and autochoke are problematic...

Whatever it is, just have ur O2 sensor, starter motor and autochoke checked...

There's a TC service center in Seri Kembangan, I highly recommend this SC becoz the guy in-charge there is a Nissan expert...

the best thing u can do now is to change to wider and better tyres + rims (optional) and also suspension, it will like increase ur handling more than 100%, i never lost grip since then, i`m using 205/50 R16 now with moderate tyres and rims. Going to install ARB when pocket allows hehee, go up genting my rear tyres still coming up if going to 'my' limit biggrin.gif (according to fren following behind). If u interested in getting ultra racing ARB let me know, i can get u some discount smile.gif
*
i tot of changing to wider tyres also...
195/55R15 is the best choice as i done the calculation using tyre calculator.... the difference is 0.1% only. thumbup.gif
the speedometer only has a small difference.... but too bad that the cost of changing all four rims is too expensive sad.gif

if suspension, we have to change to stiffer springs or absorber rite?

195/55/R15 is actually a standard size on the Pulsar VZ-R...

Hi guy !

Just got my new N16 Sport. I'm loving it.

Quick questions, hope you guys can help smile.gif

1. Planning to change my 14" rim to 16" or 17". Any recommended brand? And tyre size? Ok, im more to GAYA person, so i guess i can sacrifice on the comfort & FC . But having said that, will the FC increase like >10% if i change to 16" or 17".

2. Tint? Any recommended brand beside Vkool?

3. How bout ur FC? Mine Full Tank RM 90++ can go average 550km - 90% City + 10% Highway


Cheers !

something to share with u guys...
i just gotten my n16 service today....not via TC service center...
and most importantly, i changed my ATF to nissan matic D....

now my auto gb gear change is smooth! not like previous times where it jerks regardless upshift or downshift....
previously if upshift within <3krpm range, still ok... but >3krpm, it jerks most of the time..

now the jerking is minimal.. hehe thumbup.gif
and it is noticed that the more power transferred from engine to the wheels... lesser lag in the auto gearbox
i am not sure what ATF is inside previously but i believed it is castrol since the n16 forumers said TC Malaysia is using castrol instead of matic D.

1. 16" ok larr then use the slimmer tyre. if u go for 17" then u have to use more slimmer tyre which is bumpy and becareful if u langgar a lubang the rim might dent cozs the tyre is too slim. and u need to check the slim tyre got enough air or not frequently cozs if the tyre running with less air inside, ur rim might dent.

2. use air cool. old brand. don't know the price. hehe..........

3. ur FC seems good now. can hantam in a BIG muffler mar.
then put bodykit.


Added on March 19, 2008, 5:49 pmya TC use castrol engine oil. for gb oil i also dont know. i use TC gb oil too. its pink color one.

sledge, when u want to transplant sr16ve?

1. my car was 14" too previously and i`m hybrid both performance n gaya hehe, ok if 16" go for 205/50 R16, if 17" go for 205/45 R17, if u wanna use 215 its fine but it might kena ur chassis IF u lower it too much.

2. Go for Huper Optik if u looking for a high end tint, i recommend u take ceramic based for long term usage.

3. FC mine can go for 450-500km for rm70, mine was Manual, i suppose urs was auto

btw i love sport's rear light, mine was older 1 model which is the 'pink' based instead of black like urs smile.gif
if u wanna trade let me know tongue.gif

ur atf drain out also redish then it is good no need put in new atf fluid. can ask the mechanic pour it back. haha..........
absorber koyak? u meant the rubber cover koyak kah? can replace the cover but not cheap, i replace mine around rm30-50 for 1 pc if not mistaken.

i also 1 plan but no $$. want to buy AE100 with 4age 20V BT 6 speed.hehe......... saw from youtube, stock 4age BT tapau B16a.


Added on March 20, 2008, 1:34 pmthe sport and normal N16 i think its the same thing, except the sport one got use NISMO skirt and rear is disc brake.

if want to use sr16ve, the front and rear disc brake dont know enough to stop the car or not, maybe need to upgrade to S13 brake system.

N16 sport and normal is 100% same except exterior look changes namely :
- smoked front and rear light,
- 3 line blackened grille,
- removed boot lid,
- removed rear passenger head rest

the rest all is the same, oh yea, correction to northiswara is the NISMO bodykit and rear disc is also following normal N16 which means for 1.6 SG u will still getting rear drum, and NISMO bodykit as optional but mostly they will give it as FOC

even the N16 NISMO version is completely same as a normal N16 except :
- S-tune suspensions
- NISMO door step
- 16" rims
- a 'birth cert'

thats it, hehe now u see how they actually make some 'image' changes rclxms.gif

N16's standard brakes will not be able to cope with SR16VE's power, must upgrade to at least RNN14 or JN15's front brakes and U13's rear disc brakes...
