The Kumho Ecsta AST 205/45/17 were new on the rims when I bought them, so I'm just wearing them out. I will go 215/45 next set, tires are undecided.

Since these pictures I have painted everything behind the grille black, added an Altima SER emblem, as well as painted the grille with a different medium. No good pics of it yet, but I snapped these real fast.

Not sure if there is a "showoff" section because I didn't see. Just thought I would post up my ride.

[RUFFIAN]

Pretty clean ride. The light from the wheel gap is blinding though.......

Lol, please don't remind me. I have a pretty long list of to do's on this car, but a nice set of coilovers is the next thing I'm saving to buy.

[flatop09]

Damn, i dont really like sentra's but this one is preatty badass bro.

Thanks man. With time it will look even better ;)
I'm not even close to where I want to be.

How do you spell Kumho that badly when it's clearly in your own picture?

[thesammy]

I like it. It doesn't look quite the same since those pics, but the stock grill looks way worse.

Lol, because I didn't care to look.

[Andr3w]

Looks good bro. Keep it up

[Okie_doke.]

Ahhh I see Drewsky made it in this bitch...... Lower that thing quickly man and it will look a ton better

[Genji-Sama]

Gahd, i could stick my head in that fender gap!!! :crazy:, srsly though seems like a good base can't wait to see how the cars gonna look when your done

[thesammy]

Lol, yeah. It doesn't help that my tires are mega low profile, but new tires will be on this month, and coilovers hopefully before the summer.

Then some tints, a nice front and rear lip, and it will be a little more appealing.

[D3UC3S]

Wheels are badass. They are gonna make the car when its lowered.

x2 on the chicken wire grille...why? They not have any quality plastic ones?

[singhondeck]

i like the stock se wheels better, u still got em? i wanna put em on my 99 altima

[BLKSpecV101]

not bad.. your off to a good start there

Unless I want a billet one, no one makes any for our car besides some ebay brand, but they have bad fitment. There is a guy who makes custom ones, although they are cleaner than mine, they look almost the same.

I have 06 Spec V rims, which are different than the SE rims, but I'm keepin those.

Thanks man. It cant live up to yours just yet, but give me a few years. Lol.

[Ran]

that chicken wire grill looks fucking terrible..please put the stock grill back onAs much as I hate chicken wire grills, the stock bucktooth is god-awful.

[civic gsr]

looks cool now lowered it ..........i can stick my head in your fenders lol

[thesammy]

Hehe, yeah I get that a lot. But it's coming. I don't have that much spare cash while going to school.

[Me86Rob]

I dont have much room to talk about shitty wheels right now, but dude those are terrible. Im sorry, but im being honest. other than that the car looks nice

You think O.Z Ultraleggeras look bad? This is the first time I have heard someone say that, but to each his own. I like them.

[thesammy]

Bump, for adding some pics to first post.

[Genji-Sama]

IDK, me personally, not feeling the eyelids, blacked out tails, or wheel color and i typically love gold wheels, but of course this is my opinion and we all know that simile all too well, so i'll just say i do like the style of the wheels :goodjob: instead

sounds like you're not a fan. Lol. I do love the OZs too though.
wheel set up is changing this summer, 17x7 cant hold the tire I need to grip the road anymore. 5 lug swap and 17x8.5 are coming soon

[Franco Tirador]

please tell me that 2.5 is built, please, if not sell that thing or get ready shell out like $1500+ for a stock 2.5, makes no sense, you can get a 3.5 for like 1k

I have no idea what you're trying to say, but sounds like you my friend don't know much about the QR25. Haha.
Right now, it's just boosted with stock internals Uprev Tuned at 9.5psi. If/when I build it, things should get interesting. I don't really intend to swap a VQ into it, but hey, I never know.

[Drummerboy]

Love the boost! Any numbers yet?

And you'll love going from a 7" wide wheel to an 8.5". I just did the same about a week ago. Also, Federal 595's in 215/40/17 fit really nice on 8.5" wide wheels. I just got a set from onlinetires.com for an awesome deal. may be something to look into.

Thanks, yeah, it hit 308hp/314tq to the wheels. My clutch can't take it either. Lol. New ones on the way.
I have 225/45 on these wheels now, I wanna fit 235/40 at least, if not 245/40. I need more traction. Haha

[sprix!]

Its not really bad in my opinion. I guess people are giving their opinions, and I am glad you are taking it in stride. I think some tint would do you well. The wheels look pretty good actually.

[Boosting EG]

looks nice

Thanks, it actually has 20% all around now, just no recent pics. My exterior is dirty and needs a little tlc, been working on the turbo kit for a bit.

[RL...]

Nice numbers for 9lbs...that would be a fun little car

Yeah, hopefully we'll all meet up soon and I'll take you for a ride

[teh bri]

Idk, for some reason I always think/thought SE-R Spec V's look better blacked out. But that's just me.

[thesammy]

I'm not sure how I feel about blacked out, but I've thought about it. A body shop kinda blacked out my tails for free when the car was there, without really asking... Lol. It grew on me though, glad it ended up happening.

[2turbo4u]

i luv boost, so good job on that and I like the Sentra's so great job on that as well!

thanks!

[SHHHH]

Nice build! Id consider that one neat sleeper :goodjob: I wouldnt lower it or anything. Maybe throw the factory grill back on it but thats about it.

Thanks, I can't even tell the intercooler is sitting right there. Lol. Haven't had any good runs with my severely slipping clutch, but I'll swapping that out in a couple weeks hopefully.
And I'm thinking about making a new grille soon, I have a couple ideas...

[Drummerboy]

That's really nice on 9lbs! I should make around 300 again at 12psi. Just scared to crank it back up. Don't want to see another motor pop, lol.

As long as you have the room for fitment, 245's will definitely help with traction, lol. good luck with that.

[thesammy]

Yeah, you may be surprised to find out, it has totally stock internals too... Lol. Not even cams, and only reving to stock redline of 6200.

Yeah, it's going to take some custom work to get 245's to fit in the rear, 2J-Racing has helped a ton with my build, and will be making the tires fit by precisely bending my solid rear beam to 1.7 degrees of camber. Solid beam FTL. Haha. A custom 2J-Racing Panhard rod is due at some point too.

[thesammy]

My car made it as precisions ride of the month, pretty neat.

[GlennsEK]

Anymore updated pic?

[thesammy]

Not really, it's dirty, has mismatching wheels, the CF hood is sanded and has some epoxy spots, and a couple other small things going on. Lol.

New wheels/tires coming in the next 2 months probably, I'm about to start my hood project this month, and hopefully new pictures by April. New clutch going in this or next weekend.
