They are pretty damn nice
i love them!!
Ive driven a few, they are real nice. look 10x better than regular altima. Decently quick, though fwd pwns, lol and the factory shift knob is huuuge

2.5 V6 with 260HP not bad
You mean a 3.5LOriginally Posted by SE-Rious1
yeah 3.5 sorry
i like how you dont see many of them. they look really ****ing clean. nice interior. decent power. and WAY cheaper than the G coupe which was my alternative.
ive seen some on auto trader with only 20k miles going for 22,500
Had a friend who had one at one point.
Pretty nice car, in and out. Power isn't all that is should be, considering it comes with the "SE-R" badge, which is should be totally diffrent from its original design. With some bolt on's it can get alittle quicker, but nothing too impressive. My friend had an cold air intake, test pipes, and a catback.
Car sounded pretty cool, but the power wasn't enough to beat an altima 3.5se five speed. With the same bolt on's. The car handles also handles pretty damn good, on stock tires its pretty good, but add some kdw's and you have a nice handling fwd.
What is it that the SE-R has that grabs your attention?
i find it hard to believe it couldnt beat an altima 3.5se. that doesnt make any sense to me.
a/t<5speed
Believe it.
The five speed is just better, the car was lighter. Ask 3.5altman, he's the one who raced him.
ok ok ok i got it, and the se-r was a a/t. ok. but i would get mine in a 6mt.
also the altima se-r comes with 260 hp and 251 lb-ft of torque
No, it was a manual, and still got pulled. And 260 CRANK hp and 251 CRANK tq. Im talking about WHEEL hp/tq.
i like how you see very few on the street. im not looking for a very fast car, anything over 250 hp is enough to keep me content. i think they look extremely clean. i love the S5 grill on them. and they are very reasonably priced.
Thats true, you don't see to many of them. They're nice man, I like them. But about that 250 horsepower thing, stock they make about 210-220whp. And like 230wtq. Thats what nissanperformancemag got, and what my friend got as well. Still though, nice car all around. I like it in red.
yeah those are pretty dope clean inside and out
ha ha thats retarded, its a upgraded altima 3.5se. makes more power, how could it not beat one?

You must not know alot. Once again, believe it.
Im sure we still have the video somewhere. I'll ask him next time I see him.
the se-r was not a 5 speed?
2010 Scion xB
SE-R's come with a six speed.
and lol i have raced se-r vs reg 3.5 altimas, and maximas. lol when i get back to work in about 10 mins ill do it again
2010 Scion xB
6 speed stick or a 5 speed a/t lol
all things equal (Driver) ser should have pulled. i have never had a 5 spd 3.5 alt hang with me driving a ser unless i ****ed up a gear
*edit didnt mean the ser completely blew a reg alt out the water, but its clear the ser is faster, though not by a whole lot
2010 Scion xB
Maybe.
It could also have to do with mods. The altima that beat him was an older model (02-03).
god this thread is funny. i would murder any altima ser with my 3.5se. i have raced several and they dont have the long highway gears like the se does. the 6 spd is ok for digs i guess but, they still would fall on thier asses. dont get me wrong the car looks great, but with that heavy ass body and heavy ass 18 inch wheels it couldnt pull itself nowhere without nitrous. i have a few videos floating around here somewhere, let me find one and i will post it up.
If you own a 3.5se and it's not in your sig - BAN!
...wait....is this Swole?
if so ahahhaahahah - What up?
Leisa and S. 4 Life NM?

^ word!
I can't even get on your case though, I repped my SR-ed240 more that the daily driver altima
thats right... so if you have or get a altima se-r you should sell me your wheels
hahahaa, the forged wheels do look hot though!
Leisa and S. 4 Life NM?
Oh the altima was modded and the ser not? I could see a intake/exhaust 3.5 taking a ser, the rated hp diff between them is only like 10hp. but the ser supposed to have better gearing.
but yea, for the orignal post lol se-rs are very nice, semi-rare (just dont see a lot of them) but a 3.5 altima 5spd would be a viable choice too :P
2010 Scion xB
Both had the SAME mods. And im sure the six speed is better at city driving, but on the hwy, the five speed has a better sweet spot than the 6. Longer gears are better than shorter, especially when they have almost the same HP.
lol okay. 5sp>6spd
2010 Scion xB
I'll try to find the video and see if I can post it up.
ha ha i wasnt meaning to sound sarcastic or anything, i was conceding (sp) 5sp>6spd.

Why don't you 2 just screw.

If you're gonna do it, overdo it.

SE-R is not that much faster if any. It was like a 10hp bump and again to the front wheels. Better tires will help with the launch. Everything was cosmetic pretty much, 18" wheels, red added to the interior, smoked tails, different lower front bumper etc. Its good looking stock.
However has anyone driven a 3.5 Altima? Torque steer galore and they handle pretty sloppy. They are VERY quick though, the VQ engine is a beast in all those NIssans. Its a very swift car, especially once up and running.

With the se-r,your just paying for the name!!!The 02-03 altime are faster to me.Ask swoll or 3.5altman.The 5 speed works out better!!!

SE-Rs have a great presence - they are outstanding cars. However, if you're smart you can save money buy purchasing a 3.5se and making it look like one (Without adding the SE-R badges)
If you purchase an 05 SE you'll only need a few cosmetic parts, 02-04 Require an 05-06 Hood
You won't have the 6speed the dash or the colored leather but you don't need it.
