nice, I actually found some old pics of my 92SE.

Here are the rims I plan to put on my 02 SE once I get my next paycheck.

I've been hearing a lot about a small lag with the drive by wire, and the more I drive the car the more I get used to the delay.

I just threw out the oil burner with the timing chain rattle outa my 02 along with the crunchy old tranny. Feels like a different car.

A cleaning and a midpipe may take care of it. If not, maf strikes again!

Looks hella clean, I'm jealous! Definitely buy it.

Since this post is still being bumped around thought I would let everyone know that my ECM was the effected model. I took it down to Nissan and paid them 100 bucks to flash it. The car has been very responsive ever since. I am also about to install a stock airbox pretty soon as well. Thanks again for all the help

I also have a stock navi in my 02 se. With the a/c and heater controls in the screen. What do we do if the screen ever goes out, anyone know if there is a way to use the controls without the screen. It's only a matter of time. I think we are screwed if we keep our cars for a long time, like I hope to do, only 55k . Maybe I worry for no reason. I'll have to work on that.

Sweet find wish i had the navi. I love my 6 speed too. Don't have hesitation problem but I think the MAF on these cars die over time and cause power loss. I have 78000 mile on my 03 now and I plan on replacing the MAF for the hell of it.
