Thing is super easy to drive compared to my SVT (which is kinda rough around the edges if ya know what I mean). It hauls ass too, just slightly slower than my SVT thru 1st and 2nd. That (and the mega torque steer... note it has a Torsen) is probly due to the 175hp and 180lb/ft of torque! I can just imagine what an SRT-4 is like to drive! This is planned to be my daily driver so I can park the SVT. Here are some pictures. I'll get it cleaned up in a bit and get some more pictures of it later. I think it looks ok from the front: Click pic for 1600x1200 full size Front action shot: Click pic for 1600x1200 full size Rear end, kinda ugly IMO: Click pic for 1600x1200 full size Rear 'action' shot: Click pic for 1600x1200 full size I need to vacuum it! Click pic for 1600x1200 full size Hardest-to-read gauges EVER! I might actually buy the EL set off Ebay just so I can read the damn thing in sunlight!

BTW, I'm NOT getting rid of the SVT anytime soon! Goin' Round Traffic Circles @ 50Km/h!!! \m/ -- 1998 E0 SVT #2119 of 6535 \m/ -- 2003 Sentra SE-R Spec V

Always have been. Have fun with it! BrApple-its all in the way it is presented...but everythign on my resume is all me TexasRealtor-I hope you spelling improves on your resume.

Looks like the front badge is missing or it has been debadged. -'96 SE MTX 3L -'98 SVT 1,173 of 6,535 -'05 Mazda 6s, loaded, g/f's ride -Need a 96-00 manual on CD? PM or email me

I might actually buy the EL set off Ebay just so I can read the damn thing in sunlight! I agree oon the gausges, a fact made much worse by the really good, easy to read gauges in the regular Sentra. Nice car, one I considered heavily before buying my SVT. But I wanted ABS, and for some reason, ABS was packaged with the sunroof in Canada. And I couldn't fit comfortably if it had a sunroof. 98 Silver Frost SVT 97 BMW 540I Sport, six speed "Blue is for sky, black is for soil, and white is for simplicity, purity and hope for the future" "A coveted car should never stunt your life, but should make it more rich and interesting."

Is the audio equip stock? sorry I didn't see the pics (56k modem here--to hell if I'm going to wait that long for the pics to load!) I was pretty impressed w/my friend's stock audio equip in his Xterra. I think it was something like 500W. Not too shabby from the oem. Does Nissan usually go big w/th their audio? Yep, I have seen Sentras' gauge clusters; absolutely ridiculous. 99 Black Contour SE Sport

Didn't need to see the pics to know, he said "pretty damn good sounding factory setup" A lot of SE-R's come with that premium audio, if not all if I'm not mistaken. 98.5 T.
