I am selling a real nice 1992 Nissan Sentra SE-R. I got this car as a partial trade on my G20 with a SR20VE that I just sold. I already have a B13 SE-R with a roll cage, Koni'e etc.. and really don't need another one. If I didn't buy a real nice Maxima SE 5-speed as a daily driver I would consider keeping this one because it is a very clean example of a rare car. Besides this is my 7th SE-R and my baby seat doesn't fit as well as in the Maxima.
Any ways back to the point. The car is a 5-speed obviously as you can see from the pictures. The interior is extremely clean, the only flaws I could find were the dash board bending up slightly in the front, the stitches are coming out on the passenger side of the shift knob and the headliner is starting to peel down in the front and on the sides a little. Other then these minor things the interior is about as good as it gets in a 1992.
The exterior of the car is also in great shape. Believe it or not but the paint is original. It has not been painted. Again it is about as good as it gets for a 1992. The only real flaw I could really find other then a few minor dings is a small spot of rust under the paint behind the drivers wheel well. I looked the rest of the car over and could not find any other rust at all. The under carrige is in great shape as well and shows no corrosion. The car is equipped with the increasingly rare OEM Mudflaps.
Mechanically it drives great, It doesn't pull to either side whether braking or accelerating. The LSD actually feels like it is still working (I wish I could say the same for my other B13) The transmission does not exhibit the infamous 5th gear pop out but it does grind on occasion going into 2nd. It doesn't do it all of the time but if I had to guess I would say that about 25 to 30% of the time sounds about right. The clutch feels a little soft but it still has some life left in it. You could get in the car and drive it anywhere in the country as it sits right now. The A/C is ice cold and it works on all of the speeds. The heater works perfectly as well. The power mirrors work but the sunroof does not go back, It tilts but does not slide back. I will include a perfectly working sunroof assembly with the car (my other car no longer needs it since the Kirk roll cage went in). The shocks feel good and the car fells suprisingly solid over all. The car is bone stock except for a Pop charger, a SSAC header and a 2.5 Inch Mandral bent exhaust. All of the performance parts were installed by the last owner who traded the car to me. He told me that they have been on the car less then 4000 miles. The car also comes with a perfectly functioning Sony 10 Disc CD changer, a Sony Cassette player and Sony Speakers in the rear. (I don't know what is in the front but they don't appear to be working.
Over all the car is in amazing shape for a 18 year old vehicle you would be hard pressed to find a nicer example at this price. I wish I could keep it but the wife is nice enough to put up with my other B13 (roll cage etc..) and the 1976 Bronco that I have been "restoring" for the past 2 years. If you are intrested please email me at williamjeremyr@yahoo.com or give me a call at 904-465-0458. The car is located at my house in Jacksonville Fl. I will ship it if the buyer pays for shipping and I will consider trades. I have lots more pictures if you need them...

Also in the picture of the engine there is some duct tape on the power steering line. It leaks but I have a new hose that I have not installed yet. It will be fixed before the car goes to its new home.

I replied to your email but it gave me an error. I am not sure if the email was correct
Just sent an Email to the address you listed in the ad from a known good account. Hopefully that fixes it.
wow, flashbacks to my '94, which was a very fun car but just too dang loud inside. it gave me headaches.
Nice car! Hard to find a non-beat-up B13 these days. Perfect blank canvas for someone looking for a nice car to make into a DD/toy.
This shouldn't last long, but if it does I might have to call.

I still have it as of right now, I have got quite a few calls about it but No one has come to look at it yet.

Seriously? I could have come to look at it today but you said someone else had the first shot at it.

I told him that I would give him until Thursday. He did not call by the time he was supposed to. So now it is available.
Payday's right around the corner

I had one person come to look at the car this morning and we discovered a few things that I was not aware of when I originally posted the car for sale. 1st of all the passenger side CV joint will need to be replaced. It does not click at all which is why I did not notice it before but when I replaced the power steering hose I realized that it was bad. The person who drove it also noticed that the clutch felt a bit wonky, I looked into it after he left and the previous owner did not have it adjusted correctly. It now feels much better and it helped with the grind into second gear. I still think it is eventually going to need a clutch but it is much better then it was before. The other thing we noticed is another spot of rust. Again this spot is on the drivers side and it is in front of the door on the lower part of the fender. I missed it the first time around because the previous owner had put some gray RTV over it to cover it up. The good news is that it appears to mostly be on the fender aside from one small surface spot near where the door closes, so it should be an easy fix. We also noticed that the other spot of rust (driver rear fender) and some areas under the hood have some sort of a clear coat on them, which is weird but does not really detract from anything. I have taken pictures of these spots now that it has finally stopped raining so if you would like to see them here is a link.

I also included a picture of the headliner so you can see how it is coming loose at the edges. The link has an extra 15 pictures or so over the ones that are already up. Just use the little arrow to scroll through them. The pictures to the right are of a different car (you will see what I am talking about if you hit the link)
Please feel free to call me or shoot me an email if you have any further questions. On a positive note we discovered that the front two shocks are KYB's :)

Whoever got it, got a minty ride. Good work keeping it that nice, hopefully the new owner keeps it as nice as you did.
