Thread: Road & Track freelancer working on a B13 SE-R story

I think the reason the NX is sometimes overlooked is just how rare they are. A few years ago, I officially threw in the towel in terms of finding a clean manual one in good shape. It's like trying to find a unicorn!

Mmm...someone say S12? Yes please with a dose of VG30 power in the SE-V6 trim. Baby Z31 lol.

I almost bought a B15 Sentra with a VQ35DE swap. That motor is a beast. I had a '05 Altima SE-R and loved it

LOL...WTF are you talking about Jordan?

:shrug:

The NX is overlooked and forgotten about for the same reason it was when new, it's an oddball wallflower. Yes, it has better brakes and handling than the SE-R, but even the SE-R sat overlooked on new car lots, a slow seller compared to it's GA powered cousins.

On the new car lot the NX was a screwy looking cheaper alternative to the 240sx, but in an attempt to make it look different they went too far.

About how nice the VQ motors are since we were talking about Nissan V6s. There was a guy awhile ago who dropped one in to a B15 and I looked at it, but I ended up getting an Altima SE-R instead.

And that relates to this thread how?

Yep, spot on. Every person (who don't know about SR20s) I point out an NX to says "it's ugly as sin." "Worst looking car I've ever seen." It's something about the front headlights and stuff I think. Of all the SR20 powered vehicles in the U.S. ever released, I think the P11 G20t is the sleekest looking one, and the superblack 91 SE-R look the best. I still want an NX though.

Just about the Nissan V6 motors that someone brought up. Oh and huge surprise Kyle "liked" your post.

Don't worry, I am fully #TeamJordan in some cases. So quit yer belly-aching and emoji rolling.
