    SE-R and the spec-v are nice but they just don't pull like others, ok...for example, one of the cons about it is the redline, the 6 speed mt is cool but the gearing sucks ass, the variable valve timing on the spec-v is ok but what good is it if you can only ride it for like 1k rpm when it engages, the redline is too close, then the aftermarket parts, not a big selection. I have driven a 2002 Sentra SE-R Spec-V and up against a stock integra gsr, the gsr pulled all day long on a one-on-one stop, 20mph roll, and 60mph drop. Sorry, not ragging on the sentras, just my opinion on those, I don't have all the knowledge as of you guys but just my first hand experience. And no the '02 se-r is not the only one I have driven.

    Se-r and specv whatever. Yeah b15's are slow

    The old B13 and B14 se-r rev to 7500 and are way more fun to drive and handle way better.

    And Transaxle what the hell are you talking about? Many out voice the opinions of one?

    Your car is slow and the other turbo b13 and b14 se-r's are cooler than yours. Everybody agrees.

    No Half i am not selling my car, so kinda pointless to buy the transmission, and yes its a 5spd. Also 1439/2000 who gives a fuck what you think or anyone else. I love my car, and i could give to shits if it was slow as hell, to me its fast enough and its gets me where i am going. My car is being built for show and not go, yes it will get some go parts but will mostly be set for show. So who gives a fuck what YOU think. I have had tons of compliments on my car, and have had people say it looks like shit. But really they only people who sit there and bash someone elses car, probably really is just jealous about it. i have met your dumbass in at meets and such and seen your car. It may be something rarely seen, but to me it looks like a fucking legend with some gold rims on it. Also it looks like mommy an daddy pay for most of your shit for you. SO EAD and becuase i could give two shits what you think about my car!

    damn, all i wanted to know is if anyone else out there was driving a SER. Not to start a fight.

    The qr motor has PLENTY of parts out for it too...i know, because i have them...its just we dont have 16 different brands putting out the same damn parts.

    1) the variable valve timing is CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE. The switchover at 5000rpms is the dual-stage intake manifold opening up the short runners

    2) There is plenty of after market for the 02+ SE-Rs. Pretty much every bolt-on that's available for the average import is available for the SE-R. It's not on the Honda Civic/CRX/Integra scale, but it's pretty expansive (for an example, I think there are at least 6 different companies making qr25de headers)

    3) the gear ratios were revised after 02. The only time I've lost to an Integra was the first month I owned my SE-R...I lead the whole race but missed 5th gear and the Teggie got by me. And that's only drag racing. In any race that involves turning, stock for stock, the GSR can't keep up.

    I agree that it's by no means the best car out there. But the combination of 180+ft/lbs, a helical limited slip, a stiff suspension, and a 6speed close-ratio tranny made the SE-R on of the best deals on the market when it came out (the market being under $20K sport compacts, before SRT4s and the new Civic Si). Mine only cost $17,500 with the alarm/300w Fosgate package.

    And BTW, here's what mods mine has:

    AEBS 4-2-1 header w/midpipe and race cat
    Thermal R&D stainless catback
    eBay CAI
    SWA lightweight crank pulley (15oz vs 7lbs stock)
    Jim Wolf Technology Balance Shaft Removal Kit
    A'PEXi SAFC2, dyno tuned
    Progress springs
    NISMO adjustable rear sway bar
    RS Limited Concept Pro 17x7 wheels
    225/45-17 Wanli S-1099 tires (yeah, I roll cheap tires on the street!)

    Before the JWT BSR kit, I dynoed at 167whp/173ft-lbs. I should be about 173whp/180ft-lbs now. I get 24/30mpg.
