A little something for the gearheads...

Being somewhat of an old school street racer (in other words - there's no replacement for displacement) I just had to LMAO when I ran across the attached thread that dealt with how to get more 1/4 mile trap speed out of a Nissan Sentra.

For those of you that took auto shop in High School, the article will give new meaning to the theory "power to weight ratio."

So sit back, suck down a few cold ones , and be prepared to laugh -

I'd almost say that should go in BF, but it is about a Japanese car.

before
Curb Weight: 2,762 lbs
1/4 Mile:16.3 @ 84.0 mph
60-foot:2.9 sec.
0-60 mph:8.6 sec.

after
Curb Weight:1,674 lbs
1/4 Mile:14.3 @ 93.2 mph
60-foot:2.6 sec.
0-60 mph:5.8 sec.

Those dudes sure do know their car mods!
