Description:
Decided to put the Sentra up for sale as the fall semester is here for me and I did not get as much done to the car this summer as I had originally intended.

Little history: I bought this car about 6 months ago from crznx2000 who had picked it up with a blown RR motor in it. The VE was swapped in and driven by him for a few months before it was sold to me. Since then, I have invested a decent amount of time and money into it, however the car is still not where I want it to be and I no longer have time to finish everything that I have started. Here's the current mod list:

Engine
-Stock SR20VE swap (From a JDM engine importer; Probably has between 50-70K Miles)
-Stock RR SR20 259cc injectors
-Stock RR Maf
-Stock RR Distributor
-Aftermarket plug wires (Looks like Autozone brand)
-Stock B15 ECU/Engine Harness
-MSD 8969 Window Switch (VVL currently at 4800rpm)
-Custom intake w/POP charger and blox filter
-Pacesetter old school header
-Full 3" mandrel bent exhaust w/Magnaflow 3" resonator (No cat, welded to header secondary, no muffler) It dumps over the rear beam. Has rear 02 installed as well as bung for wideband.
-Brand new Alternator (Maybe 3K Miles)
-Fresh oil change Mobil 1 Synthetic 5W-30 (Maybe 500 miles)

Drivetrain
-Stock B15 LSD Trans (Hydraulic)
-B15 clutch disc with unknown pressure plate
-Pacesetter adjustable short shifter w/ es shifter stabilizer bushing
-Unknown transmission fluid but it is there
-BRAND NEW driver's side axle (I just installed this maybe a month ago)
(Transmission never grinds a gear and shifts like butter...)

Chassis/Suspension/Wheels
-MINIMAL rust (Almost none)
-30% tint all around
-06 STI Front Lip (Modified to fit)
-Weathertech sunroof visor (not installed)
-Relocated plate frame
-Black short euro antenna
-Black center section on front bumper
-04 Spec V black housing headlights w/ 8K single beam HID's
-Blacked out stock grille
-Stock SE PP Strut Tower bar
-Stock SE front sway
-Stock SE Side Skirts
-Stock foglights
-RS Rear Lip (Rare)
-De-badged aside from black Nissan emblem
-BRAND NEW: Control arms w/es black polyurethane bushings pressed in, ball joints, driver's tie rod end, driver's wheel bearing/spindle

Electronics
-Newer trunk mounted battery (Little over a year old) using 0 gauge wiring, distribution block in bay, 0 gauge ground.
-Custom sunglass holder SAFC pod with black SAFC2 (Needs to be wired)
-Sound dampened (Fatmat) rear seats, speaker deck, and half of the trunk.
-Wired for 4 channel amp and subwoofer amp
-Alpine Type S components in the front
-Kenwood 6 1/2" full range in the rear
-Alpine Head Unit (May keep)

Suspension/Wheels
-Back on stock suspension; however I do still have MINT 20K miles NISMO suspension sitting in the box
(I removed this because I was planning on getting coilovers this winter; can be included for extra $)
-04 Spec V Wheels all around w/ Falken tires (Will update with tread wear but all 4 should be above 50%)

Brakes
-Stock SE brakes with good pads all around, what looks like a replacement caliper on the passenger side, and good rotors.

The BAD:
-Sunroof motor recently stopped working. It happened upon closing thankfully, but the motor has given up. (I tested for power to the switch with a voltmeter and the switch gets power.)
-Needs an alignment (Camber wear is evident)
-Needs a B14 harness or the supplied stepdown and calum basic obd2 ecu programed for 333cc ve injs and b13 se-r maf (Guy I bought it from said it ran great) (All you need to source are VE injs)
-Horn is not working. (I have a spare horn I can include or install)
-Needs to be inspected.
-IACV/AAC Valves are not hooked up (stepdown or harness swap)
-Cruise control is not hooked up (Need B14 throttle body)
-Roof has some fading from when it sat with the blown motor 2 owners ago. (I was planning on painting it black)

Even so, I still feel that the good outweighs the bad with this car. It's in great shape, has a healthy VE in it, and runs decent. The main thing that needs to be addressed is the management system. A standalone would be ideal, but even swapping to a B14 harness or wiring up the included stepdown/safc2 on a calum basic would make the car run great.

As a bonus: I also have a carbon fiber hood that needs to be sanded down and re-cleared. I beleive it's a VIS Invader style hood. I will include this as well as some 17x8 ICW wheels (Black w/red lip) if the buyer is interested. Looking to make room for a new project and am willing to let things go cheap!

This car has a lot of potential and I believe that the owner that finally finishes it will be very happy with a properly running VE'd B15. I wish I was currently capable of doing so myself!

Actually, yea man I'll make the trade. I was scopin your car a few months back, and I really miss boost. Only stipulation for me is that you come here with it if that's cool. I'll even throw in some extras for you making the trip. I don't wanna run into any issues with the turbo car making that trip. The VE is reliable as hell and you shouldn't have any issues driving it back. Hit me up man 571-217-2175.
