I wasnt sure where to post this, but from what i gathered this seemed the best place..
I have a 95 Nissan Sentra XE 1.6L (only thing that came with the XE??) and i have to say i was a little disappointed with its perfromance. After learning to drive on a Mustang and Camaro i found myself wanting when i got a Sentra as my first car. I realised i needed an upgrade when my mom beat me off the light in her mini-van. I find it ironic that i have the slowest car in the house and i like to drive the fastest (part of the reason i got a 4-cyl). I have had it for a while and i am looking to upgrade it. I dont want anything to great out of it just something i can beat my friends in when i pull up next to them at a light on my way to school. The only thing is being a full time student i dont have a lot of cash to spend. Hopefully within the next week i will be working a part time job as well but thats beside the point.
I am looking for some parts that will give me a little bit of an edge without having to sell body parts. Can you help me?
buy an intake, HS header, and make a custom mandrel bent 2" exhaust in your driveway (if you have a welder) and call it a day.....:dunno:

I'm moving this thread to the GA16DE forum. You'll get lots of help there.
BTW: If you race your friends on the street, don't post anything about it on NissanForums. It's against the Rules
Liuspeed says his 1.6 is pretty fun to drive, so you might ask him what all he's done.
my stock GA16 is a blast to drive....but then again its in a 2200 pound stock sentra

Have to admit, I am very impressed on how well the 1.6 responded to something as
simple as a bump up in timing and being staunch 5.0 driver, this little 1.6 has gotten
me to peek over on the other side of the fence. Think I feel a (Nissan) fever coming
about..lol.
i got a 1.6..i put in a centerforce clutch,advanced timing,cai,2inch mandrel bend catback, agx struts and tein springs and im very happy with it now..but im still upgrading
