I sold a kit to a gentleman in the UK a few months ago. He owns a 2001 Almera with the QG18DE. I sold him the complete T3 kit, he had both manifold and turbo coated, got injectors, SAFC, and a fuel rail as well as clutch kit....

He was very methodical in searching for information, and he paid to have a shop install it and tune it. They're still working out a bug which I think has to do with the recirculating (i think they aimed it towards the MAF and it's tripping the MAF out...not a biggie but I can't be there to help, lol)

Anyways, down to the good stuff:

He emailed me today and said he put down 200.2bhp and 208tq!!!

He'll be sending pics soon, as I've been asking for them for a long time now, hahaha.

Anyways............results from Mike's turbo kit, which you too can purchase!

Sweet numbers man!

 

[chillboy]

Meant to ask how that went for your customer last time we spoke. Great news!

 

[chimmike]

here are some pics of the car he sent me a while back...non-turbo

 

[Amplified2000]

Someone needs to call him and tell him he installed the steering wheel on the wrong side...

Seriously tho I bet that thing hauls ballz, that kinda hp in that size car should be pretty peppy.

dyno chart???
Nice ##

Bah, who cares

 

[taleus1]

hmm, ive never seen or heard of that car, looks kinda civicky(is that a word?)

and please tell me thats not one of those l.e.d exhaust tips

its pretty styling though, i like it. looks like with some nice tuning it would fly being such a small car.

 

[bigjerm]

the almera is everywhere except in the US. it is pretty close to being the sentra equivalent. they are cool lookin cars though, especially in person

 

[diwun67]

Wow even the interior looks like a reversed one from a B15 That thing must be pretty quick now

I'm working on it! we correspond via email because it's a tad bit expensive to call the UK........and he's a little slow responding to emails, lol

 

[chimmike]

Ok he replied today, he's running 10psi. Apparently the shop didn't make it a recirculating setup, but he said it idles fine............................but he still has the MAF issue so I'm waiting to see if they made a flow thru setup on his car or what.

that car is my dream such a sucker for hatchbacks

 

[ai42]

Man I really like the Almeras if only the b16 Sentra took the stylings of the Almera.

 

[Trav4011]

wow... that car actually looks pretty damn good. I wish we had that here..

 

[silversurfer]

I agree. I love the look of the Almera. Sort of like the eg hatch...sort of. But its a nice 'canvas' to work with. And props to him on the qg18de-t. I hope he gets all the little bugs worked out.

 

[GT-R]

that car kinda reminds me of the Puegot if yall know what french car Iam talk'in about

 

[NatlCitySentra]

well if you guys like it, you should come to San Diego...I see people driving them all over the place here... I even know a guy in the military who went across the border and bought one and then brought it back over here.... that car would be sweet for a QR or sr20det swap too

 

[SUN_SPEC-V_04']

I Wouldnt Mind If The Next Sentra Looked Like That.

 

[DJLegacy2k1]

I hate hatchbacks...every car company is making them...why can't someone come up with a NEW idea and make a decent priced car that accually doesnt look like everything that's already been done EVERY year. The last couple years hatchbacks have been the "cool" thing. Now that goofy "sicon" looks exactly like a civic...Come on now, how about some creativity.

Not sayin his car looks bad, its accually pretty nice...But for all you hatchback lovers...I despise you =) muhahaha...
