Still have this setup? I remember loving your build years ago when you were one of the first completed and successful swaps on YT. I recently did my 3rd B15 VQ and went with an all motor setup- JE pistons spec'd for 12:1 with stock VQ35DE heads, with my build it clocks in at 12.4:1. The slugs are on Eagle forged rods using a stock 03 Maxima crank and block with stock sleeves, King Race bearings, ARP hardware throughout, 03 Maxima heads ported and lightly milled, Ferrea springs, JWT Race cams (GA spec) port matched SSIM (better overall power curve than Kinetix manifold) custom SS longtube headers with 2.5" collectors going to a custom 3.5" exhaust out to a Vibrant muffler. Very loud and VERY expensive exhaust setup all together but it was worth almost 18whp over any off the shelf options. Intake tube is also custom, 4" with a V stack, Quantum 340lph fuel pump with ID1000 Injectors. Tuned on E85 with Haltech- MAF delete, VVT active it made 347whp SAE corrected. It's mated to a 2002 Spec V 6 speed with a Maxima bellhousing (4.4 final drive feels AWESOME) and SPEC Stg3 clutch. Chassis is an 02 black Spec V, 2763lbs race weight. That includes the fuel cell with ~8 gallons, Optima battery in the trunk and fully safety certified to 10.0. Currently it's setup to run 11.50 Indez
Love the fact he representing VQS all day, but just for competition from what I see HRs are pretty hard for him and I'm confident he can't fuck with your VQs TWIS lol
+jalen summers Not really. That sentra is untuned and must have shitty supporting mods. Stock motor with basic boltons and no tune should run high 12s without trying. It lost to an HR Z while weighing much less (700 lbs) and having more aggressive gearing. A properly modded VQ as per their description should make 300 WHP (which is more than that HR Z) and have a fat ass power band. A bolt on maxima runs high 12s with traction...do the math here... That sentra is running like dog shit. They blew all their money on the heads (I didn't see porting or anything listed lol) and didn't do shit for the rest. Sad. As far as converting 1/4 to roll races...the VQ should always trap higher even if their times are the same, therefore, VQ wins roll races. That tin box civic (assuming base model) probably weighs 700 lbs less than the sentra. Sorry, revving to 9k won't save you from a VQ done correctly. It would be interesting with a k20/24 hybrid, though, as they don't have limp dick tq and make good power.
No denying K series power; my old all motor 13:1 89x99mm K24/K20 made nearly the same power NA as my built VQ NA and the K series did it with 2 less cylinders and 1.0L less displacement.
I know this is an old comment, but have you seen how fast Nissans own old SR20"VE" engines are? Not the "DE" or "DET" Turbo ones. The High Comp NA with NeoVVL (Nissans version of VTEC). Those engines respond very well. And like the K series you can make a hybrid version if you want a NA 2.4 liter 4 cylinder making 250 hp you can do so relatively easy. Not necessarily cheaply but easy yes. So the Kseries being much newer really can't brag all that much considering the SR engine had been around about as long as the B series Honda engine.
I hate the cannon but I am pretty impressed for a sentra. An I am more impressed that the engine came from a maxima B) 2 time 5th Gen Max owner. Good job
In MY opinion....He did just fine.... I only ever hear him bounce off the rev limiter once, maybe twice at most in any given shift. Granted a little better timed shifting would shave some tenths off his ETs, He still killed it in that little sentra. won most of the races, and all in all...Nice ass car man, Gotta love Nissan.
God damn this car sounds so good. PLEASE tell me what you have done to make it sound so good man. I have a 07 altima VQ with just a custom y-pipe and borla exhaust, and a SRI too. Im going to be crossing over Rev Up Z mods soon too.
what kind of swap did you do i just purchased a 2002 ser spec v its got a header and exhaust and surprised the crap out of me because im used to working on my trans am....just trying to get some ideas for my project sentra..
@CloudWhiteSpecV Hey, I am swapping out my QR25DE with a VQ35DE in my spec V. Other than the mounts, bellhousing, harness/ computer, exhaust and key....what other modifications did you make to the drive train to achieve 12.5 in the 1/4???
@ CloudWhiteSpecV At 0:53, he's just barely squeaking by you. I have a red '04 specV and I'm just waiting to find a decent VQ to buy; It'd be nice to find the High Comp HR for a good price, too. Then, the install. How much of a bitc* is it to put in? And is there more than ONE company that makes the mounts? And the transmission--I understand you have to swap in the Maxima 6 spd. input (or output?) shaft in order to use your stock CV shafts? Any info would help-thanx
The exhaust on that Z is really ugly in my opinion, but this Sentra is a beast. And the V6 sound is magical. Are you guys having the synchro problem like most B15's?
How much dose it cost to do a VQ transplant and what mods did you have to do to fit it in? I have a sentra and thought if I ain't gonna sell it, might as well make it a project car!
MAN I LOVE VQ POWER BUT NEVER SEEN ONE N THAT YEAR MODEL SENTRA! IM A MAXIMA GUY :) VQ BEST MOTORS IN THE WORLD NUMBER ONE IN BOOK FOR POWER,RELIABILITY AND GAS MILEGE....COME ON HOW MANY ENGINE TAKE ABUSE AND GO PAST 280K MILES? EXACTLY
Miguel Arellano about to pull the engine and do it in a couple weeks. Hasn't gotten any worse or given me any issues except the rattling on startup for 2-3 seconds. Wish there was room to do it without pulling the engine but there is no freaking room with that v6 crammed in the engine bay of a sentra. I'm guessing you've done one on a vq?
I bet the K20z1 civic coupe is saying what the fuck!? @ 7:08 lol that shit never gets old, his head snapped over so fast as the sentra RUNS (not walks) away from him.....lmfao he had to get whiplash from that!
Nos is kind of a sensitive topic to throw around, but i like it, its a power adder just has to be respected, you should tune safely like a 75 shot!? Or how about methanol/water injection?
Best Sleeper i've seen... i mean that sick dude! I own a B16 i was thinking if i could do the same to my car or just turbo it... Anyway i knw it is a VQ, but from which car? tnx subscribed!!!
I like that you didn't just show wins, but also losses. Great video
That beautiful vq sound :).....
Wow, what a beast of a car. love it.

that sentra sounds healthy man, running real strong, im surprised that Z walked away even though its an HR
Z was tunes sentra stock just engine swap
Power to weight ratio is real!
VQ powah G u represented to da fullest,,,,
Love the fact he representing VQS all day, but just for competition from what I see HRs are pretty hard for him and I'm confident he can't fuck with your VQs TWIS lol
this video shows that k series is still holding the throne for N/A fwd 4 bangers.

jalen summers thats right
TheGuruStud maxima does not run 12s with bolt ons

That VQ sounds so raw. Awesome work.
that VQ sound that everybody loves 😍😍
I want to run a VQ sentra now. I have a HR FBO. Before I got my Z I always wanted a specV when I was a teenager.
@braymckoy VQ35 its a Maxima motor swapped on a sentra...
3.5l v6 FWD
sounds like the clutch is starting to give up.
@sentrartune no offense taken.. i didnt have a working tach for a majority of these runs, so i would go strictly off engine pitch to shift
This sentra sounds awesome.
I hate the cannon but I am pretty impressed for a sentra. An I am more impressed that the engine came from a maxima B) 2 time 5th Gen Max owner. Good job

I can listen to the VQ roar all day.....
God damn this car sounds so good. PLEASE tell me what you have done to make it sound so good man. I have a 07 altima VQ with just a custom y-pipe and borla exhaust, and a SRI too. Im going to be crossing over Rev Up Z mods soon too.
bad ass! this is the best/fastest Sentra i have ever seen! SICK!
Congratulations u have a fast sentra bro! Thats street racing right there
Hey man your exaust is BRUTAL! How hard was the motor swap?
S/O To the faithful cameraman
you can hear the garbage 2nd to 3rd gear synchros and then dat 4th gear torque that makes you pull on everyone.
FlameBite - sound like he got that flame of hate up It arse.
Dam son!!! I be dreaming allnight witg tgat vq sound 😂😂😂😂
That 92-95 was shook 👀👀
@BudgetPhoenix that model 350 comes about 300 stock with the VQ35HR. k&n drop-ins, test pipes, exhaust, tune and he completely out-powers me.
What gear box are u running?
Love the sound of a vq
what kind of swap did you do i just purchased a 2002 ser spec v its got a header and exhaust and surprised the crap out of me because im used to working on my trans am....just trying to get some ideas for my project sentra..
Nice runs!! Slap a turbo on that, it would be Nasty:). I didn't know the HR 350z was that much faster with the DE 350z.
This was definitely a time to be alive
This car is a monster. Hoping to push just as fast as yours on my maxima. VQ baby!!
1. Stop video
2. play along side /watch?v=GKURxNMi2xA
3. ????
4. profit
Dude it goes so well... my jaw dropped at how well it went with it.
What do you have done to the vq35de? did you change to a RWD or take out of like a maxima or something?
great video man, so many good runs in this with such a variety of cars
@CloudWhiteSpecV Hey, I am swapping out my QR25DE with a VQ35DE in my spec V. Other than the mounts, bellhousing, harness/ computer, exhaust and key....what other modifications did you make to the drive train to achieve 12.5 in the 1/4???
wat you got on the exhust nice sound
@ CloudWhiteSpecV At 0:53, he's just barely squeaking by you. I have a red '04 specV and I'm just waiting to find a decent VQ to buy; It'd be nice to find the High Comp HR for a good price, too.

I agree. Car doing lots-a damage out on the great 27.
That va engine tho!!! Love this shit.
thats the best motor right there! besides the valve cover problem
Did you build this car yourself i have some questions about wireing
Gotta love vq's :) Loving your sentra dude
Thats a fast Sentra respect the VQ
N/A all day always knocks the good ol' boost laggers in the head, especially when the cars have similiar weight and power :)
esta endiablado el sentra .muy perro
The exhaust on that Z is really ugly in my opinion, but this Sentra is a beast. And the V6 sound is magical.
Are you guys having the synchro problem like most B15's?
what wheels are those on the rear tires??
What a sleeper , do you think a vq37 will fit Sentra 2013?
Super impressive car... well built VQ35. I wish my G35x was this quick :p
What is the brand of your chrome mags beginning of the video?
The gas stations must love this kid!
That FG2 looked like he was standing still lmao. Great job man!
can you tell me cam c 8 who of hp give iwant put in my altima vq 35
How much dose it cost to do a VQ transplant and what mods did you have to do to fit it in? I have a sentra and thought if I ain't gonna sell it, might as well make it a project car!
Quick question. Did you keep the stock qr25 transmission?
yes. QR 6 speed with VQ bellhousing
Mad props to you!
Bet a bunch of people were like "wtf a sentra? Really?"
LOL
Does the swap just bolt right in no problem or do you need to do any fab work ?
It takes a lot, harnesses, a lot of bs, it's around 6k
Can someone tell what a VQ Sentra ? Thanks.
Damn this car is beast props!!!
This must be fun as hell to drive ..nice setup and keep it a sleeper
hey how much does the complete swap cost??
Nice swap man. I'll probably hang on to my b15 and do the same thing to it.... Nismo forever.
That's a beast!
Nice vids dude. My vq sentra is from a altima SER 06 pulled 249 WHP. intake/exhaust/standalone cpu
VQ POWA ALL THE WAYYYY !!!
Do you have an NWP blockoff plate? If not get one. You'll see better gains up top, especially with that Technosquare reflash.
What vq is it and can it auto
Who did your swap??
Holy Shit! I need that
@E3ramirez nah, that thing is stupid quick. around 240 whp and the car weighs ~2100 lbs.
What mounts u use
High comp pistons and a 150 shot and this thing would be a RIPPER
Very fast nice Sentra! I have a turbo neo vvl beast!
Whats it weigh now since its gutted?
yea, he is, but do you have a vq in your sentra?
Wat can i do to my stock spec v so i can make it faster
@charjohnnie mine came from an 02-03' maxima. thanks for sub'ing!! new vids of the car coming soon
Sweet vid. Enjoy every race
What VQ enigine you running?? Because i have an Infiniti i30 which comes with the VQ30DE which has 190hp 203tq i believe
in this video its a vq35 factory come with the 350z
minimat098 so your sentra is rwd?
My vq came from an 04 maxima. 265hp and I believe 260tq.
AntonioD Galves No sentra has been converted to rwd yet
AntonioD Galves so it's the vq35 de
@charjohnnie VQ35de is from the Nissan Maxima, Quest, AnD the 350Z
MAN I LOVE VQ POWER BUT NEVER SEEN ONE N THAT YEAR MODEL SENTRA! IM A MAXIMA GUY :) VQ BEST MOTORS IN THE WORLD NUMBER ONE IN BOOK FOR POWER,RELIABILITY AND GAS MILEGE....COME ON HOW MANY ENGINE TAKE ABUSE AND GO PAST 280K MILES? EXACTLY
I just bought my vq sentra today. You ever had an issue with the timing tensioner? Mine only gets noisy for a second on cold start.
Fix it asap it's easy if you got tools and cherry picker if you got one. It's common they go out after 100k the tensioner and guides
Miguel Arellano about to pull the engine and do it in a couple weeks. Hasn't gotten any worse or given me any issues except the rattling on startup for 2-3 seconds. Wish there was room to do it without pulling the engine but there is no freaking room with that v6 crammed in the engine bay of a sentra. I'm guessing you've done one on a vq?
Why is interior stripped? Because racecar.
I bet the K20z1 civic coupe is saying what the fuck!? @ 7:08 lol that shit never gets old, his head snapped over so fast as the sentra RUNS (not walks) away from him.....lmfao he had to get whiplash from that!
awesome... love it!
K20z1 civic coupe owner was rocking a Kentucky waterfall lol
Little beast
so you are saying i got my spec v because i watched initial d?
Nos is kind of a sensitive topic to throw around, but i like it, its a power adder just has to be respected, you should tune safely like a 75 shot!? Or how about methanol/water injection?
nice sentra! but k20 are nightmares!!!
Best Sleeper i've seen... i mean that sick dude!
I own a B16 i was thinking if i could do the same to my car or just turbo it... Anyway i knw it is a VQ, but from which car? tnx subscribed!!!
@E3ramirez yea k20 swap is a beast........love nissan
Beast!!
Beauty video
I'm trying to do that swap but fkn NATS or not allowing me to start the car 😭
Damn dat exhaust sounds so sexy for real ... Nice sentra bro
Where can I get that motor mount kit!? Sounds amazing man hoping to do this with my 04
JoshD4PREZ I made my own. There are companies and individuals that make them. Go on b15.com
more like "that sentra sounds like my z!"
BEEEEEEEEEEEEASTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
add a turbo and you'll be HAULLIN
