I'd put money on any 03+ Spec V against the Endeavor anywhere in the powerband w/ comparable drivers. High 14.70s are capable w/ just the Injen CAI. I/H/E and the Endeavor has no chance w/ a decent driver. If it's an 02 then no deal... 2nd gear, 3rd and final drive was crap in 02, so they were changed for 03+. Also be sure that it was a Spec V. There are SERs (NON SPEC Vs) in 02 and 03 as well. Pretty different than the SER Spec V.

give me a few months..........
It was probably a rebadged 1.8s
Let's take a close look at that:Originally Posted by SE-Rial Killer
** sr20 vs. QR25DE **
** rev happy vs. WHAT revs? **
** a billion years of sr20 R&D vs. a 4 year old powerpant **
** featherweight coupe vs Sedan Fat Kid ** (2750 is actually not bad for a 4dr tho)
My point: You shouldn't be surprised. LOL.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
No. It was yellow (unless he repainted it... unlikely). 1.8 doesn't come in yellow. It was either a NON-SPEC V SER (5 spd : which ALL were autos) or a Spec V w/ a retarded driver. But a win is a win.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
1.8s come in yellow.
Yes. What I mean is, if it was YELLOW then it has 2 at LEAST be an SeR (1.8L), but it doesn't have to be a Spec V (2.5L). And if it was an SeR then it was an auto... they only came in auto.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
SE-R's are all 2.5, either a 5 speed or an automatic, or spec v with a 6 speed and lsd. There is also a 2.5le, it replaced the non-spec SE-R in 2004. The base is a 1.8, 1.8s's in 2005-06 were available in any color including yellow. There is not a 1.8 SE-R.
End thread please, Sentra Se-R's are gay.
I've only seen Sentras like Halfbaked's have potential.
I appreciate the education. I always assumed that the SER (non-spec v) was a 1.8l. I know that they are slow as hell. LOL.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
Just because you havn't seen it doesn't mean that's how it is.
yeah... this one is gay too: 242WHP N/A.

Moment of silence.... I miss that guy. It was fun while it lasted though. LOL.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
I'm just hating b/c u pulled on my EF by a bazillion cars while I was spraying. LOL. You know you're hating when you brag about a car that is no longer yours... LOL. I just had to rep one last time for the Spec Vs. LOL.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
Exactly!
I will put $ 100.00 on the Endeavor......... ( phil dot worry man we will install 50 shot on it :P )Nice..........uh........kill.
No offense against the Endeavor (I know a chick who drives one, so I have to be nice), but the person driving the Spec V was either:
1. Running on 3 cylinders
2. Didn't know how to race (upshifts at 4000rpm........?)
3. He/she was just fucking with you, because how else would you explain a SUV that clocks 9.5 seconds 0-60 beating a car that does 7.3 sec 0-60.
Oh, and don't tell me you pulled a Spec V at higher speed (up to 120, huh? Maybe your wife was driving the Evo and pushing you from behind.......
Haven't I told you about the time I "barely" beat a stock Civic automatic with that old 944T?
I don't have a Spec V, but a friend of mine does. All it has is a 8hp intake.
I'm pretty sure I can borrow it one night if you wanna run it with the Endeavor (And while we're racing, I'll make sure I have a passenger to get a vid of the tach on the Spec V to show the upshifts at a maximum of 5500 rpm in every gear).
What do you say?
BTW, you have to be a crazy ass doing 120 in an Endeavor (however long it took to get from 90-120, I don't know).
2 buses in front of u...... UNTOUCHABLE
CHEETERS. LOL
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
http://www.restylersinc.com/robbie2883/specfi.wmv <-I'm pretty sure that's an evo or two getting it's ass handed to it by a spec v.
What does that have anything to do with a stock spec-v vs. a mitsubishi Endeavor SUV?
^^^ exactly. he is getting of the subject. any car has possibilities of being fast once you do some mods to them. what phil is talking about is a STOCK spec v, not a MODDED one.
^^ You keep saying Spec Vs are slow... LOL. The SER Altima is not exactly a beacon of speed off the showroom floor! LOL.
For $15k, 175HP/180tq --> 14.90s stock is not a bad bang for the buck. Just my opinion though. I am not "star struck" by the Spec V. If I was I would have kept my built one. I do standby the fact that stock vs stock they will kill an Endeavor any way you slice it. But this is internet racing (based on experience). I'd like to see it go down.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
Kill an Endeavor? If it would, then why didn't it?
4 races= 4 losses for him
You guys are forgetting the fact it happened 4 times. Surely he can't drive that bad that he can't switch gears.
I say we find the guy who owns the car and lets do it again ON VIDEO!
Come on. You been racing long enuff 2 know that there are people out there who have the CAR and simply do NOT know what to do with it no matter what you tell them or how much you try to help them. Sure... the gears are VERY short in the V and it takes some getting used to in spirited driving. But he should have won (V) fairly easily. I wish I had my stock Spec V still I'd be up for it.Any Spec Vs on the board wanna try???
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
I think you experianced a Spec V or a normal SE-R with a retarded driver...
but everyone is correct Spec Vs are the quickest or fastest things but they arent to bad for being stock at 15k for what they do...which is why I drive one...
Let me recover from from speeding tickets and sway bars and I will give it a shot...cas right now I am broke...

i dont quite know what you are reffering to , but i dont drive an altima se-r. i drive an 2003 altima se witch stock from the factory ran 14.2 -14.4. thats not bad for a 3000 pound 4 door monsta. i agree with you on the point of the altima se-r not being so fast of the showroom floor. but for a endeavor to even be side by side with a spec v in stock form is saying something.....
SLOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The argument for the car being around 15-16k new is valid. You end up with someone who would have other wise bought a Dodge Neon ending up with a car that has actual potential. Once they get their washer nozzle lights and a few interior neons they are done modding the car. Because of that, unfortunatly ,the spec v tends to be a moron magnet, you just happend to meet one @ plesant hill and 85.
^^ agreed. now let me say this : spec v's have alot of potential. givin to the right person they are going to have one sick ass car. i remember when the spec came out in 02 and was kicking ass everywhere. now those decent #'s that the spec has is not enough.
big j : i cant wait to see your spec v when it is all said and done. good luck with that.
This story doesn't say anything about "I raced a Spec-V and won, but I shouldn't have".Come on. You been racing long enuff 2 know that there are people out there who have the CAR and simply do NOT know what to do with it no matter what you tell them or how much you try to help them. Sure... the gears are VERY short in the V and it takes some getting used to in spirited driving. But he should have won (V) fairly easily. I wish I had my stock Spec V still I'd be up for it.
I don't care if he should have won, he didn't. I stated what happened that night, but that doesn't mean I care to analyze why I won for the next 10 pages.
We could do this all day.
Me: I won
You: but you shouldn't have
Me: yeah, but I did
You: yeah, but you shouldn't have
Me: yeah, but I did
You: yeah, but you shouldn't have with the right driver
Me: I don't give a fuck who's driving, they lost
You: yeah, but they shouldn't have
Me: but I won 4
You: but he didn't shift properly
Me: I DON'T CARE BECAUSE I WON
If he didn't have those gay ass blue squirters, he could have won.
Sounds like you are getting mad. LOL. Be easy. You beat a 14 second car. Kool.
Hey WATCH IT!!! Those squirters are JDM bitch!! LOL
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
wtf, you beat some s4's with a ptcruiser?
lol
project- boost coming soon!
I am going to call BS on this right now...unless you got a turbo'd PT or you have done something esle to it to make it faster...

LOL. ^^ Very well said. Doesn't have to be stock... as long as it is not overkill we will be able to figure it out.

Ok I didnt read all of it, but Ill take a shoot for money against that SUV. LMK
Ohh yeah and by the way, I seen that guy a commerce few timesembarrassing , running high 17's

i believe it is the turbo'd pt with some mods. but i would love to see him race a s4. not saying he didnt beat one but, just to see it with my own eyes.
Turbo and a normal PT is a big differance...cas I was going to say, an stock NA PT cruiser beating an S4...was the S4 parked?i believe it is the turbo'd pt with some mods. but i would love to see him race a s4. not saying he didnt beat one but, just to see it with my own eyes.
