Talking New Nissan enthusiast on the block!

Hi there!

My name is Zaine Louw and I am the chairman of Team Dragon - a car club in Cape Town South Africa.

You can check us out at www.teamdragon.co.za

I drive a 2001 model Nissan Sentra 140i. Ive done quite a few mods on my car so far - but mainly exterior. Next step is to Turbo her - hopefully you guys can help me a bit there - but lets leave that for another post.

Here is a pic or two of my baby. Comments welcome!

I have noticed that our Sentra shapes are way different from the ones available most other places...

Welcome to the Forum Zaine, I'm liking the difference in the looks of your sentra from ours here. It's always nice to see something new and different. I have the first question for you. I am looking at your engine, which engine is that, and what type of injection does it use ? the intake almost makes it look as though it is a throttle body injection type system ?

Thanks!

Yeah - thats my engine bay (well the cars at least) It is a GA14 motor as far as I can determine. It is 1400cc and uses the 16 Valve Double overhead cam cross flow fuel injection. So I assume it is a throttle body system - but nothing as fancy as individual throttle body's.

She currently does 64KW on the wheels (85 HP) - not too bad for now for a 1400 But I want to turbo her to get her to 134HP (100KW)
