Is the 2018 Nissan Sentra NISMO a performance BARGAIN or BUST? - Raiti's Rides
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- At Nissan, the word “NISMO” means “add performance,” and the 2018 Sentra NISMO follows that recipe-just barely. Its engine makes the same 188 hp as the SR Turbo; as with the Turbo, a CVT is standard and a 6-speed manual is optional. Exterior changes include lower-body bits, a rear spoiler, and a redesigned rear bumper. The NISMO rides lower and rolls on 18-inch wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Inside is a microsuede-and-leather-wrapped steering wheel, leather shift knob, and push-button start. Is this a performance bargain or performance bust?
*Now we just need a Doug Score*
El16100 agreed
El16100 I don’t think it’s going to be very high.
Denzel Vlogs it wouldn’t be to high!
@@RaitisRides I see we also watch Daddy Doug? They're both great reviewers!
Nismo hit a all time low 😂😂 , 188hp that's a disrespect on their name
I know right! They really went backwards with this car!
@@RaitisRides Honestly, if this car only came with the 6 speed manual -- it would have a better reputation. The CVT is the reason why this car has such a bad reputation. The other thing people need to know -- the default mode is very conservative. The turbo doesn't really spool until 4500 rpm in default setting. Press the Sport button -- and you get the missing midrange power with the turbo kicking in around 3000 rpm. Makes a very massive difference -- the car is way more lively. With the manual, this car can runs a respectable 15.3 in the quarter. A CVT version does it in around 16.0. I know -- because I own an SR Turbo.
188hp but no kg
Ended video at 188 hp ..pathetic.
Same
Canucker I’m confused what Nissan is trying to accomplish.
Itsaguapo I feel the same way.
why would anyone in their right minds choose this over a civic si?
leutrim topalli or a VW GTI, FOCUS ST, or upcoming Veloster N.
leutrim topalli honestly
Hold the fuck up 0-60 in 7 sec? Does that even deserve a nismo badge?
Moto Adventures I really don’t know what Nissan was thinking!
lol
I know right?
I was thinking of selling my B15 with Sr20 turbo to upgrade to this but i guess il hold on to it alittle longer
188hp at the crank? Damn thats horrible. Another boat.
JimmytheGenius it’s really disappointing!
Mazda3 has about the same HP with no Turbo and a better interior. The Sentra Nismo is kinda cool though
Lil Pump very good point!
My friend actually owns one, it ran 190 to the wheels on a dyno so maybe around 205 to the crank? I think it's a pretty fun car actually, not far off the 2018 civic si, and actually beats the 9th gen si. Matted with the 6SPD it's a lot more fun than the spec sheet may suggest!
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective. That's great that your friend is having a great experience with theirs!
I didn't realize that there was a Nissan Sentra or Juke NISMO as I thought it was only found on the 370Z or GT-R's. Thanks for the excellent and informative video!
I really appreciate you saying that! It surprised me when I first heard Nissan was doing that as well. It will be interesting to see where they take this whole NISMO concept with future models.
And of course the RS is just lurking in the background to remind you of what you would rather be driving.
That freaking cracked me up! You are awesome!
I'd rather drive a nissan
I'm a nissan lover. My daily driver is a nissan. My race car is a nissan. But would I buy this sentra over a turbo charged honda civic? --nope.
George Wainwright aka Jason Stryker what kind of race car do you have?🏁🏎
That hand movement is your signature move for sure haha, keep the awesome videos coming
Raul Medina that’s for your compliment it brought a smile to my face!😊🖐🏻👋🏻
I am a Nissan enthusiast but it seems to me they are getting too gratuitous with the use of the NISMO name with their cars. That Sentra is a sharp looking car though.
BitDoodle it looks good just needs that little something more under the hood.
My 07 passat is faster then this thing. That's such a disappointment. I work at a dealer. We get a lot of sentras. Personally, I think they're cheap shit, but I thought maybe the nismo would be better, but probably not.
I totally feel your pain Ryan.
idk about cornering though which is what the nismo tuning is for.
Ryan 1995 oh yea, you’ll beat a Challenger Hell Cat in this thing
I would say is a bust but if u get the manual could b a decent car the manual has to b more reliable than the auto
Anderson Rodriguez...agreed, manual is the way to go. I just don't trust these CVT's
Not only is the manual more reliable but also a lot more fun I am sure i this car then a CVT. It will be interesting if they do a NISMO version of the new Altima.
Tell me about it! It blows my mind that eve Subaru offers a CVT option of the WRX.
Raphaël Roy pretty sure is not even close reliability wise lol some of those cvts wouldn’t even last 10K miles
The ford fiesta st has more power for alot less money. Nissan needs to step up their game.
Let's hope something is coming with the 2019 Altima.
Raiti's Rides I was excited when they announced awd in the Altima then disappointed when it will only be available in the base engine lol
BIG POPPA sometimes what these companies decide to do blows my mind!
Why do they even bother. Those specs should be the specs of the regular Sentra. The exterior is nice I give them that. But the car truly disappoints everywhere else.
jorge irizarry I totally agree with you!👍🏻 it’s more show than go!
This Sentra nismo is just suspension and cosmetics... for normal driver, it’s a bad choice, for me, who’s a fan and also a broke college student, I like it. It’s the closest to a nismo I could get without bankrupting
Kim Reuel you don't need to buy a brand-new car. For 27K you can get a way better nismo car if you don't go the brand new route. You can even get a way better car if you go outside of nissan. This car is not a true performer. It looks more like a marketing idea adding the nismo to the sentra. But if you truly like the car who cares, right?
jorge irizarry I’m well aware that she’s not. And I know... lol I’m a dumb one. I’m just very picky. It’s not about price, performance or anything, I’m just a fan.subaru is a better choice to be honest but I’m true to my brand. xD I had her for two months now and still love every bit of it except not having paddies
Kim Reuel 😂😂... but honestly not dumb at all. If you love the car who I'm I or anybody else for that matter to tell you what's better for you? I actually love the GT350 wich is not the best performer there is but I love the car...so... Stick to your brand if you want and drive what you love, that's what truly makes a car enthusiast. Btw, the car still looks really good. I'm just not pleased with the performance area.
I own one and I love every bit of it except paddle shifters. At the end of the day, I ignore the price, performance, and competitions. She’s my daily driver.
Kim Reuel I’m so glad you are enjoying her! What color did you get?
Raiti's Rides she’s also black. She’s my ratchet daily driver. 😂 I named her Nikki.
Kim Reuel I love the name!👍🏻
Raiti's Rides why thank you! She’s a ratchet one. I actually have a walk around video of her. I’ll upload more soon. So far I got the tints done, next will be coolovers, spacers, and alignment.
Nissan should make a sentra Nismo RS Turbo with 220 horsepower
AGREED!
Or just update it. I actually bought a sentra in 2016 and for whatever reason it had the radio and stuff that been used in like the 2006 nissans. Then i guess enough people complained about it and now the 2017 and newer ones come with the updated interior and their radio can play bluetooth music. Though they didnt actually update anything they just refreshed it and cut new holes everywhere.
Bought a 2017 nismo Sentra almost a year ago. Definitely not quick by any means, but it gets a lot of looks because it’s not something you see everyday. Good review! Always enjoy your videos 😊
The car looks goof and as you said not somthing you see everyday which makes it a good choice in my opinion
Good! :)
188 hp isn't performance it's asss
Donald J. Trump many would agree with you sir!
New drinking game, one shot every time he says Nismo lmao!
Well it’s a Sentra Nismo. Nismo, Nismo, nismo!😊🥤
Bruh, less than 200hp? Wtf, older spec-vs have more hp. I have a 2006 with 175 hp and I know the 2007 has 200. Which was fine when the competing civics and stuff had like 197hp at most, but we're talking about 2018 standards. I have an older bmw 335i with a few mods makes 500hp. Why would you buy this?
Shane Hubert I’m right there with you! It doesn’t make sense.
I'm a Nissan tech. I admit, it's a nice car. But even I wouldn't buy one.
Brian Adams thank you for being honest and straightforward! 😊👍🏻
If this is brand new, why the hell are the rims curbed already, and that motor all dirty. I would give you $13,000 for it.
That thing is dirty for a 2018. Is it used?
Todd The Triumphant it’s new. Who ever did the PDI and cleaned it was decently not their top person. I couldn’t believe under the hood!
That's disgusting.
Todd The Triumphant I wouldn’t buy it that way!
Wow 188hp im impressed😂😂😂
Brian Aguirre I’m really shocked they just left it that way!
I work for Nissan. I watched the development of this car happen in front of my own eyes. As a former owner of 3 SE-R's and a 2000 Sentra SE, I wanted one, I really did. But they didn't give us the car they showed us in 2013. Before this came out, Hyundai announced the Elantra Sport and they won me over with the styling and the multi-link rear suspension. 32k miles later on my 2017, absolutely no regrets. Oh, and I drove it off the lot for under $19k.
I totally understand where you are coming from. I can see why you would go with the Elantra Sport! It's crazy how Nissan is going backwards while others like Hyundai are really moving forward!
Jason M. I had an r34 nissan gtr, and it was the best car I have ever owned
I like how your focus RS is just chillin in the background, at the end of the video.
I thought it was funny too! 😊👍🏻
This car is such a fail in many ways. Not only because of power but because of pricing. I dont see why anyone would pay 24 grand for this when you have other better options. Si, Elantra Sport, hell I rather take an SR altima over this. From 2002-2011 the ser Sentra was special. This is nothing but an SR model with a body kit and suspension differences
Chris Williams if you look at the price, it’s definitely a dumb choice for a normal driver, but for a fan, I like it. Yes, it’s over price, but I like it. I’ll upload videos when I’m done with mine. So far I only have tints. 😂😂
Wtf u going to stay stock for 😂 man
Boosted Nismo I’m not done with mine. It’s so hard to get parts I wanted and plus it’s expensive. I’m not going to be a white boy living in his parent’s house ricer. I’ll go all out Japanese
Kim Reuel hahah 😂 ya bro check out j2racin on instagram they got all the mods
Boosted Nismo yup. I’m comparing, and also saving. I think I’m going for handling for now. I want to lower it and pull out wheels(for looks) and alignment. I’ll save up again for exhaust, downpipes, cold air, then tune. If I wasn’t a student and a renter, I’d be done the first week I had it.
Datsun=Nissan=Infinity=The SAME
Pretty sad how dirty under-hood looked. That dealership doesn’t like selling cars?
I totally understand where you are coming from. I totally was shocked when I popped the hood!
Glad to see the mic upgrade, keep up the great videos!
Chris Costello thank you so much for noticing! I will keep doing my best!
I have a 1000hp v6 sentra
Only in forza
You really made me laugh! Thank you because I needed it!
R T BULLSHIT YOU NEVER HAD 1000HP IN YOUR FUCKIN LIFE SON FEEL ME

@@yint2416 GO FUCK YOURSELF JERK OFF
The only reason anyone would pick this over a Si or a ST is if you don’t know how to drive stick... 🤷🏻♂️
Giovanni Cruz I would tell them to go get a Golf GTI with a DSG.
Dude Dudeson no no no... I meant to say a. Not an. You’re supposed to read it as “uh” not “aye”
It's sad nowadays that marketing people just put legendary badges on cars just to get sales(Mitsubishi with puting the "Eclispe" nameplate on a crappy and hideous crossover that looks just as cross as the person who buys it and then realizes it's shit.) I own a 2003 Nissan Sentra SE-R and even though it's 15 years old, it'll still hand most of the newer cars' asses to them. As a Nissan owner, this makes me cringe at the fact that they have the nerve to put a "NISMO" badge on it and not change much on it like they did with the GT-R and 370Z. Now if you don't really know much about cars and just want something cool and good looking(I've also heard it's fun to drive), it's not bad especially if you get a manual. Plus it has pretty good legroom for those that are 5'5 or above. But again, the older hot hatches(Including the Sentras) performance wise would beat this thing up and down on a track without breaking a sweat.
Karl Johnson you sir hit the nail on the head! The legend of NISMO and all of its achievements is being used and abused. Nissan needs to make momentum forward. Go back to making fun cars for real enthusiasts.
165hp with 2700lbs and fwd, quit playing. you’re not beating anyone.
whatEver tell that to every other hot hatch and Sentra SE-R/Spec-V owner. Also if Colin Chapman(Founder of Lotus) was here, he’d disagree with you. And you must’ve not driven a small car with a big and torquey engine.
lost me at CVT transmission
the worst gearbox ever! Great news that this one has the no cost option 6spd.
The older Sentra SE-R's made more power (B16s=200hp). Now the SE-R Nismo back in the day was fun, made more power when NISMO actually made parts for the car (I beat myself for selling the NISMO header)
Nperez1986 why they went backwards I have no idea.
I really like the outside styling of this car and the seats but i would still probably pick my Fiesta ST over it. Maybe I’m just a little bias lol nice review as always
Tuffy- Gaming thank you so much for the compliment. It is nice but the Fiesta ST is one fun car to drive!
This is great for mid-life crisis fathers who are into the ricer scene.
Denzel Vlogs perfect! That might be a new segment of the car industry!
Or new drivers
For Nissan= where is the Nismo? ( Nissan SportMotor) ...to poor HP just 188 with Turbo. what does a turbo system do on a 118hp car?
I now exactly what you are saying! It makes me question who is calling the shots at Nissan. If a car has 118hp and you add a turbo you will probably get another 50-60hp.
Actually seems like a pretty cool DD
nhbpep3si it’s nice to have options.😊👍🏻
It’s actually pretty nice.. I’m loving it. I have mine for two months. I bought it because we have the same birthday
Why not got a wrx instead?
Explo Ty that is an excellent question!
I'd take the older spec-v any day over this.(200hp btw)
I can't believe they went backwards with this car!
Why would anyone want this over a Si or GTI? At this point, the GTI might even be more reliable than the Nissan.
Kevin Norris, well now used ones have depreciated to the point where they actually make sense.
Someone should make a nice upgraded turbo kit for this
Daryl rabara-brokate I’m sure you have options. Just sucks Nissan took the cheaper route.
You do. It’s called buying a turbo for the Juke and putting it into this car. The Juke in the US and the Sentra SR Turbo/Nismo use the same engine and even share the same gearboxes.
GameBoyKolor you think it would be cost effective to use the Juke Nismo engine.
Nice review again bro but for me focus st over this nismo name whit 188 hp is just to low Numbers for that name 👍
Sylvain Lebel thank you so much for always taking the time to comment. You are spot on!👍🏻
Raiti's Rides no problem bro you are realy pro in what you do and putting a lot of time for this you deserve the crédit for it 👌
Sylvain Lebel thank you so much! 😊❤️
I shut the video off when he said this car is 26K...
Tuo Qiu it’s crazy isn’t it?
*has "performance" in the title*
All u talked about was the red accents, didnt even drive it
Someone shopping at this price point may also wish to consider a 2016 Miata if 2 seats are fine. It would still be under warranty. I agree with Scotty that since Renault bought Nissan, the quality hasn't been there as it has in the past.
Thanks for your extra input!
Finally gets to the engine and it's a complete let down LMFAO 😂
Tell me about it!
Just a body kit and fake carbon fiber, people who drive this wasted every dollar they spent and look ridiculous on the road.
Vann Groseclos I guess it it makes them happy?
why not make a nismo Maxima instead?
jonathan mandouma it’s really confusing! Nissan decided to do a Leaf Nismo!🤦♂️
Nissan needs to step their game up. 90s and early 2000s they were killing it, but it seems like they've kinda gone stagnant
Colin Smith I’m right there with you! It’s like the focused all of their attention on the GTR and that was it.
Gosh the front chrome trim looks terrible alongside the lower red valence. They should have blacked out the chrome pieces.
Everything about it screams “afterthought”. Lazy attempt here to capitalize on the performance compact market by Nissan.
Cababah that would of looked hot! The lower part of the bumper is spot on.
Not to mention that no “performance” compact costing 25k+ should have a torsion beam suspension...
Cababah agree 💯
This Nismo Sentra tbh is a piece of crap. If I'm paying the premium price for a Nismo Sentra, they should be able to give me atleast a 250/275hp car. Nissan really dropped the ball on this one.
There are so many people that would totally agree with you! At this price point there are many different options.
@@RaitisRides Thanks for the response. The car is nice and all but for people who knows what the NISMO badge stands for, they would be dissappointed with the lack of power. Besides, most people that buy a NISMO badged car doesn't buy it to drive miss Daisy around town, if you know what I mean. Taking the Ford ST and RS into account with also the Civic type-r to name a few, Nissan did not step up the plate.
Julia Edilma Orjuela Henry you are so very welcome!! You really have hit the nail in the head! Let’s hope NISSAN gets their act together!
Once again a great video Joe!! Your quality has improved sooo much since you first started. Keep doing you 🙏🙏
I REALLY appreciate you taking the time to say that! I'm glad my $$$ investment in new filming gear is getting a great response. It's still blows my mind that I started back in Oct 2017. Thank you for the support!
It's 2018 nissan wtf? Just 180hp 😑 my s2k can smoke this stock
Alan Arzate its very shocking!
Lmfao 180 hp
James Marshall you forgot 8 hp l😉👍🏻😂
Nissan needs to improve their interior cuz they always look cheap...
Manny Man I like the steering wheel and sears and that’s about it.
The SER Spec V was a better car.
You can say that again! How did Nissan go backwards!
J N 2.5L vs 1.6L that’s a big difference. So 180 hp from a 1.6 is pretty good.
@@YOLORACER 188hp from a 1.6T motor isn't all that great. How is it that the 10th gen SI makes 205hp and 192lbs of torque from 1.5T motor compared to this? Numbers aren't everything but this just shows that Nissan could've done a lot better. Most especially with the Nismo model smh
Beautiful car. Definitely think Nissan's onto something with a small sporty fun car.. unfortunately they really have to give up with the CVT. I truly can't believe that there's a CVT in a Nismo level car no matter the model. The people who can't drive manual shouldn't be SOL in a Sentra. This would catch more enthusiast eyes if it had just a bit more power and a transmission that doesn't take away from the experience... Exterior is as good as it gets though. I have no complaints with the current generation Sentra's body and Nismo definitely gave it some much needed sharpening up. If you could sell a person on just looks, this car would have no issues on the market
Devon Gee it’s an interesting car and you just don’t see them. I totally agree with you. Thank you for your input.😊👍🏻
Devon Gee get the manual transmission then
Trenton_ A read
Devon Gee 😉👍🏻
Devon Gee I don't have to read shit and I'll say WTF I want don't complain or comment if you don't want to hear others opinions
Throw on a turbo kit on it that makes 20 lbs of boost and ecu chip tune and boom! you got a sleeper
Jack Pratt it should come with the extra power at this price point.
Should have 250hp
05briseno couldn’t agree with you more!
Well,the engine displacement is a little small and the power's a little lower than I'd like,but at least a turbo and 6 speed manual transmission are combined as what I'd want in a car. As for the lack of displacement,there's no cheap easy way to fix that,but as for power,considering the fact that it's turbocharged,I'm sure aftermarket solutions will easily allow it to run a stock power level of 200+ crank horsepower with fairly minimal effort,at the expense of having to be a little patient and letting an extra year or so go by. However,there already exists a few limited upgraded performance parts for the Juke that may very well be compatible with this vehicle,too. So at least there's hope for making it a little better power and performance wise than stock fairly reliably without having to necessarily spend a fortune. In short,I suppose what I'm trying to say is that this car at least has some fairly decent potential,depending upon the owner and driver's budget as well as to how the aftermarket performance industry decides to open up to this platform. In all honesty though,it is a rather nice looking vehicle for what it is.
Very well said! You touched on some very good points. I really think in looks for the most part they hit the nail on the head. I also agree nice that they offer transmission options. Thanks for your input!
so when do you actually drive the car?
This car isn't going to touch the Civic si, Elantra Sport, and GTi.
Not even close!
Idk about that, I did some research and the car is running 190whp with the 6speed which means it's rated at around 205? Nissan is underrating the engines
Ryan Chow Yet still the performance of the car overall is not there! 188HP is be big gap for sandbagging!
@@RaitisRides With that hp it still will keep up with the Camry's 200hp, as even though Toyota gives you more Hp they tune the engine so much that it's really not faster.
@@RaitisRides On a side note that's why each company makes two versions of their midsize cars as if you want a v6 or a turbo 4 with more powerful engines you will have to pay more!
guy is reaching hard lmao trying so hard to make it seem like any of this is worth it
cris florez it’s called enthusiasm and passion. Just sharing cars that’s all.
Is this car supposed to be sporty? The throws on the shifter are super long.... That thing looks horrible to use.
Really nice idea but.....should be at least 200hp.
At least give it 215hp like the Juke Nismo!
Raiti's Rides Yup that'd be on point
Technically I think it should have a little more!
So this shit has a turbo but not the 370z nismo 🤦♂️
henry Sanson I rather have the engine in the 370z. 😉
I think unless you're a Nissan fanboy you'd have to be nuts to buy this over a FiST, FoST or Si. I do like some of the styling but the performance is just not there. Hey Joe what are the torque numbers on that thing? And btw how did you enjoy your wheel time with that GT350? 😊👍🏻 My local Ford dealer has a 2016 GT350, white with blue stripes and only 1,600 miles on the clock 😃 I might pull the trigger if I can afford the insurance 😂
You bring up a very good point! The Sentra Nismo has 177 ft lbs of torque. There is not enough great things I can say about the GT350. I really want want even more now. It is so easy to drive. I love the power delivery and the sound is freaking ridiculous! Let me know if you get one! The one at your local dealer sounds amazing!
You’re right. I’m a fan boy. I’m a broke college student and it’s the closest thing I could get to a real Nismo. My only complaint is that there’s no paddies. So far, I have a walk around video, once I’m done with it, I’ll upload more

Eric D your torturing me! Lol
Raiti's Rides LOL sorry man. I just had to share this beautiful low mileage one owner Shelby. I checked with my insurance company and unfortunately I wouldn't be able to swing the insurance payments 😓 I am in love with this car though!!
Great point at the end regarding the price point. I would say this Sentra nismo looks better than the civic Si, the nismo badge will also make the sales happen and can always modify to make more power. Great review.
Thank you so much for your great input, and wonderful compliments!
Right on Joe. Great job and your history is spot on. I didn’t even know it existed. I like it. I will see if I can test Drive it. Tell Big Guns Tom his camerawork is Amazing. Godspeed to you both
Thank you so much David for letting me share this with you! I appreciate you giving Tom some love!
Honda Civic si is 2800lbs and makes 205 hp 😦
The focus st has the same msrp as this and almost 100 hp more
What is Nissan doing with this vehicle!
They seem to be lost!
It's more like 60hp.
Jason M. Yeah, Nissan dropped the ball with the Sentra Nismo!
Does the auto transmission version have paddle shifters?
The legend 27 yes I believe so!
Buying a car that's unique means little to no after market support can't imagine allot of performance companies investing in the sentra....
Bryan Escober the engine is the same as the one in the Juke, which had a decent amount of aftermarket performance support and even more so in Japan so the power potential is there
Bryan Escober it takes like a few hours and you got 240hp
Bryan Escober very true! It’s a double edge sword!
fakk you how much cash for 240hp?
Not my first choice but it is a sweet little car. At least Nissan is still in the business of making cool cars. For the price point though...pretty much all of its competition offers much more for the same price.
That is the issue with this car. If the Cvic Si didn't exist then this would be an easier sell. I don't think I have ever seen one of these o the road.
Raiti's Rides dude I didn't even know they made a NISMO Sentra until you made this video. A request from a subscriber; start doing some side by side comparison videos of these cars with their competitors. Yeah it's been done a million times, but I think you can add your own twist on it. Also if you're ever out west I'd let you do a review and drive my 17 STI. Keep up the good work!
That is a great idea! I really appreciate you making suggestions to help out. I am going to try to put those together when I can. How far west are you? That is very generous of you by the way!
Raiti's Rides about as far west as you can go. Seattle.
J Wake well I know my wife and I have been taking about visiting Seattle one day. Definitely not in the winter. 😉👍🏻
I have the 2017 SR Turbo, and it's a chill decent car, and different. Kind of low on thr HP, but from stock and with a flashabke tune, it dyno's 247hp. Not bad for $700
That is a nice balanced setup!
@@RaitisRides yup. Apparently a stage 2 tune was released recently also. If we can acheieve close to 300hp on this baby turbo car with just s few tunes, seems like a fun deal to me for a car I paid $18k for
ECUTEK?
@@ryoon1761 yup
PacmannProductionsTv where did you tune at ?
188hp out of a turbo, come on now, 🤣
samboo18fuksdogs1 Its a budget built 1.6L. It’s turbo is small to supply boost across the rev range for torque not to be fast and furious.
samboo18fuksdogs1 I know right! It’s the 21st century! 👍🏻
Raiti's Rides Ok I’ll bite. What is a number you think this engine should be producing based on its turbocharged? Also while running 87 octane producing max torque starting at 1600 RPM.
Steve Pounder someone in the comments already said it, but I’ll say it, it should at least out run/hang in with the SI
Steve Pounder as far as HP it should be at least in the 200s like what they said when they showed the concept
I bought the 2017 Sentra Turbo..white with black rims. It’s the midnight addition. I love it. I also have a Titan.
Congrats on your Sentra! I think you went the better route. How do you like it?
No, the Sentra did NOT replace the 510 in 1982, the Sentra replaced the B210/210 as Nissan's entry level car.
The "original" 510 in the US market was replaced by the 610, and then the 710, before Nissan realized American drivers didn't care for either car as much as they loved that first 510. So what did Nissan do? Produced a poor copy of that 510 and to ensure its success gave it the old name.... 510.
Thank you for your great input! I really appreciate you sharing that information!
Tbf dual exhaust is a little overkill for a 1.6
I love the looks but One exhaust, its looks something missing on the right side its not balance
I totally agree with you! Thank you so much for watching!
What a turd. 188hp in a 3100lb Sentra. Who are they competing with? A 2005 Altima? A lot of talk about plastering simulated carbon fiber and simulated alcantara. Red stripes don’t make it sporty. Nissan hasn’t made a good car since 2002.
Clint Mullins Its nice to hear that, i recently bought a 2002 Sentra Se-R spec V as a first car
What about 350 z ? 370z? Gtr? G35 G37 ...all of these are excellent cars if they are 6 speed manual
Ojileb M I guess I’m referring to the lower line cars. Mechanically the 350 was good but the interior was terrible. I really like the vq series but we had to replace the engine in the maxima because it ate a screw off the intake butterfly. A very good friend had a pathfinder that blew its transmission due to the radiator issues. And then there is the cvt....
Clint Mullins ohhh i agree with u in case of lower class line... they used to have good cars like altima ser and maxima 6 speed ...but now these two come in cvt 😩😩😩
1 Fact: its called the Nissan Sylphy in the Philippines
Axlerated Z that’s really cool! Thank you for sharing!
Raiti's Rides you’re welcome
Loved the vids
* I SUBSCRIBED!!*😃
Axlerated Z I’m so happy you are part of this journey!
How they make a Nismo Sentra and not a Nismo Maxima
Dylan Heath I hope they listen because you are not the first to say that!
They have made one ... looks really nice
A brand new one in the States?
Raiti's Rides yes I work next to a Nissan dealership in san Juan Capistrano California and just seen 1 recently
I hope one of my local dealers gets one!
Nissans are garbage now.
They really have gone backwards. I don't understand what the heck happened.
@@RaitisRides they switched manufacturing years ago and now its showing. Thats like fords. Over in Europe the fords are actually really good.
I work on Nissan cars all the time and I hate them more and more when they come in
John Doe I hope they switch it back!😉
joshua ray I can just imagine what you see!
And here I was thinking the civic si was bad for having 205hp lol
ai know right! This Sentra Nismo is sad!
I actually kinda like it but for the price you can get a better equipped Mazda3 with just about the same horsepower with no Turbo. Definitely not discouraging the car I think it’s pretty cool but they’re asking way too much for a car that easily is outweighed.
Lil Pump I agree with you 100%!
Wow.... specs are weak. Rather spend the money on a low miles G37, 370z and still have money left for upgrades and rebuilds lol
Ernie C excellent point!😊👍🏻
Nissan is not what it was on the 90s Bring back the Silvias
I think Nissan could sell this better if they had a more dropped back look if you think like the stinger type body almost. The body is very bubble or rounded which even with nismo is hard to dress up. Bump up the horses to even 200/205 and this thing will sell. I get it though that it’s a business and this would take more resources. However there is a reason why the focus ST and civic Si sell! I do like the interior of this but those two changes I feel would really boost this in the market place. Nissan needs to realize there is a demand in between a GTR and their sedan/family cars for a 4 door sporty car.
I think you really hit the nail on the head! It's going to be interesting to see what Nissan does with their lineup in the next few years!
I believe this is using the same engine as the Nissan Juke was. I've been driving Nissan for about 18 years now ... I love it but there's so much better things out there. Good review sir.
BLUE I appreciate the compliment! I’m just confused how a Juke NISMO has more power then this car? You are right though, better options to be had.👍🏻
Showroom car. Their lot attendants couldnt clean the engine bay? 🤔
No Gusta I was shocked when I opened the hood!😮
Take a shot every time he said Nismo.
Bust!! The concept that came out was really exciting and was hearing that it would have about 240 hp which would've been perfect, but when it released it was depressing to see that it had 180hp.
But would definitely love to see a nismo altima/maxima, crazy they haven't since they put nismo on everything now haha.
Yeah, 240hp would of been great in this year. They are coming out with a Leaf NISMO!
Raiti's Rides that's crazy lol guess they don't want it to compete with their infiniti line
Mr Valenzuela that has to be but it’s NISMO for God’s sake!
Raiti's Rides yeah nismo is supposed to be top of the line wtf!
Mr Valenzuela what engine would have made 240hp?
They need to make a Nismo Maxima. AWD, V6, at least 300 hp. I'd buy one of those in a second.
kawasaki whip two AMEN!👍🏻
that would change the game.. especially if a 6 speed manual is an option
It would be a bad car cause the maxima itself in badass
@@tmobc.r.1boi870 I love the Maxima Tmob. it's always been my favorite Japanese import sport sedan. By going with their version of their Nismo version for their flagship sedan, I really think they could at least nearly compete with other higher end German sport sedans.
You sir that have to keep a manual!
LMFAO that is sad,like super fucking sad ,like KMS sad......188hp with a turbo HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Yeah it's really that bad! I don't know how Nissan has gone backwards.
Some constructive criticism on the reviews, don't act like you work for these companies, and try to sell everyone on every little aspect of the car. Just to give your honest opinion. You don't have to go into such detail. We are watching we can see with our own eyes.
I appreciate the feedback! Funny thing is many people say I don't give enough detail. I just have passion for cars ad tat is what you are picking up on. I will try some different things for upcoming reviews. Thank you for watching!
Raiti's Rides like the videos tho! Love your car too
I really appreciate that! You have a great car as well! Stay tuned! :-)
I have a ‘14 Sentra overall I love it not a fan of the cvt but if I can get my hands on a manual transmission version I would gladly buy another.
Jurrell Price thank you fir sharing your personal input. The manual is fun to drive.
Should be a 240hp with this price range lol..
បង ម៉ាប់ many people would totally agree with you!
Mine is
Spill the beans, what do you have done to it?
Boosted Nismo Must be awesome!!
It would have to be a blast!
