I would like to thank you all for your great responses but unfortunately i think it is car shopping time. I had the sentra since 1994 and i paid 1800 for it and put it over 400k, and all i did to it was replace the alternator, and this winter i wrote 5000$ off on travel with it. She was a great car, I am looking at getting a 94-99 Accord or Altima. Any suggestions?

400k? daaaammnn..

Yeah, IMO it's time to give that thing a rest. That motor will go eventually if it's the original one. Water pump is gonna be $$$ unless you do it yourself. Oil leaks may be easy to fix depending on where they are.

Accords are boring, Altimas are okay up until 2000. How much money do you have to throw around?

I dunno - part it out on eBay i say.

Look into the KA24DE-powered Altimas. They are pretty reliable, have more power than the accord/camry of their day ( very peppy!!! ), and go for practically nothing. I was considering one before i got my 200sx but couldn't handle the looks and was stuck on getting a coupe.

Too bad you don't have a kid on the way or i'd say... SR20VE swap..
