Who did you buy it off of? Was it nissanhawk? What size was the piping, 2.75 or 3 inch? Did you install it yourself? If so, was it pretty easy or hard? Can you feel a big difference?
'05 SE-R, Smoke, 6 spd, 15,000 kms, grounding kit, Tein springs (1.3" drop F/0.7" drop R), AEM CAI ($200 cheaper than Nismo, and it's the same unit but with a dry filter). I love this car, and am eagerly awaiting an LSD from Quaife so I can properly put the power down. EMAIL QUAIFE IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN AN LSD!!! They will do a production run if enuf people are interested! Took it to the track and surprised everyone. Short term list - strut brace, tint, ??? Winter tires are a must up here in the snow belt too - Tirerack.com is great!
I got a 2005 Nissan Altima SE-R in Code Red in September of '05. While I really wanted the 6 speed manual, I have the 5 speed Tiptronic auto because I was living in Los Angeles at the time I got it. Now I'm in Charleston and I really wish I had full control, but I still love it.
Before the SE-R I had a 1996 Maxima GLE, which I loved.
Has anyone looked at the 2007 Altima preview on Nissan's website? I'm jealous. It seems like the SE-R is no longer available in red. I'm kind of worried that Nissan is just going to vamp up the standard Altima and discontinue the SE-R in a few years, but who knows? Any thoughts?
I don't think it would necessarily be a bad thing to have the SER discontinued because it would keep the car RARE. A lot of people are starting to catch on to it and I don't want that because they'll be buying them left and right. At this point I see more Ferraris, and Porsches on the road than Altima SER's and I like that feeling.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I've only ever seen two others on the road/parked and one time a fellow Altima owner came up to admire my car for like 10 minutes at the car wash. It's pretty nice to have a rare car, but at the same time I hope they keep them around for another year or two so they can at least get some of the recognition they deserve.
Do you get annoyed when people confuse your car for being the standard Altima? That pisses me off!
I'm totally new to the Nissan world. I was hardcore GM, till I got my wife an 06 Altima 3.5SE. Now, I'm HOOKED on them. I'm selling my bike and my truck so I can get an SE-r. I'm just not sure if I want to get a brand new one, or try to get a good used one. A used one would cost me less and have less warranty so I could start modding it sooner. But it's hard to find used ones. If anyone knows of anyone selling one in the state of Florida, LET ME KNOW!! I'm losing sleep over this! I want one NOW!! LOL.
Hey guys I recently just joined this forum and this is my first post. I purchased my 2006 Nissan Altima SE-R about 3 days ago and I am picking it up tomorrow. I cannot wait, I have read so many good things about it, it looks great and I am so excited about it.
Just joined, I have a 06 Code Red SE-R Auto. that I bought in November. Sportlines, Injen CAI, AT grouding Kit, and 5% Tint all around/35% on windshield are the only mods. Ran a 14.3 @ 95 mph w/ a 2.1 60'.
New member to the team here. I've got an '06 Smoke SE-R, Blk/Gry Interior, 6-speed. So far I've only tinted it & installed a Nismo CAI. It's a beast @ 4500rpm. Looking at the Nismo Suspension & Stillen STB, but I heard you gotta do some mods so the bar don't hit the eng. I could use some opinions. I love this car, I find reason to drive everywhere. anybody has some feedback on fitting 245/40/18 series tires on the stock 18x8 rims
Brand new member here, bought a '06 silver SE-R in June, still loving it. A coworker has the red one and it looks nice. Anyone know if installing the NISMO CAI will void the factory warranty? I want to mildly mod it. Thanks.
I just bought an 05' (Code Red) - or red. I am a really big fan of it so far. If you can find one used its much cheaper. Does anyone know if its really worth it to put in a custom air intake? I also live in PA, so I am worried about the winter and the tires. Should I get a pair of winter wheels? I do have a warrenty for the wheels and tires - full replacement.
