My old beast...

I used to own this Nissan Sentra SSS, and I am a huge fan of the potential that could be had from the base model, both in aesthetics and performance for the street.

Exterior: 17" Wheels ROH ZS, 205/40/17 Yokohama A520, Pulsar GTI-R hood, Ford Sierra Cosworth rear wing

Performance: Nismo racing clutch, custom 4-1 extractors, lowered with Pi spring kit, Teflana sports gas shocks, 2 1/2 exhaust tubing, free-flow muffler, 4" tip, TRD racing plugs, K&N free-flow custom-made air box, Cusco front strut brace bar, Oversized throttle body, 50bhp NOS kit

Looks: Momo Laser steering wheel, Momo Shadow Carbon gearknob

The Nissan SR20DE engine is one of the most successful engines made by Nissan and is used in over 15 Nissan models. It first appeared in Nissan's Bluebird in October 1989, and has migrated into many other models of cars since then, from sports cars, to family saloons and even people movers.

The breakdown of the engine code is as follows:

• SR - Engine Code
• 20 - 2.0 Litres
• D - Dual Overhead Cam
• E - Electronic Fuel Injection
• e - SR20DE LEV-version

The SR20DE is a 2.0 L DOHC (1998 cc) engine; it originally produced 134hp (100 kW). This later increased to 140hp (104kW), which eventually became 165 PS (163 hp/121 kW) through the use of Nissan's VTC variable valve timing system in the S14 and S15 Nissan Silvia. There was also a LEV-version with 125 hp (93 kW) and 132 hp (98 kW). It was built from 1990 through 2002. The bore and stroke are both 86 mm (3.4 in). It uses SEFI. The redline for the lowport SR20DE is 7200 rpm and for the highport SR20DE 7800 rpm. There was a special "Autech" version with 175 PS (N15) and 180 PS (P10). [+]

I was told when this was bought that it was an Australian-made version and lighter due to the original no frills contents of the base model, compared to the Japanese version which had some nice stuff, and was known as the Pulsar. Check out this page for more info on the N14 engine series. Sometimes car brands and models can get confusing, different countries around the world having slightly different variations, and worst of all, names. But we can at least know one thing, and that is what is under the hood.

Breast cancer show ever...

Wendy gets in trouble when she threatens to beat up Cartman after school. No matter how fired up Wendy is, all bets are on Cartman. Everybody knows a girl can’t fight a boy and win... [+]

I watched the last episode and it was just hilarious, even though there was far too many showings of Indiana Jones getting raped...

Canterbury make the finals!

Canterbury will play Wellington in the final of the Air New Zealand Cup next weekend after they beat Hawke’s Bay 31-21 at AMI Stadium tonight in the second semi-final.

Canterbury may not have been at its best for most of this match, although a superb five-minute period during the second half was enough for the Red and Blacks to ward off a spirited but ultimately less skilful Hawke’s Bay team.

The home side attacked immediately at the kick-off, Casey Laulala finding space down the outside. At the end of the wide-ranging movement, left winger James Paterson injured his left knee. As a result, the promising flyer was forced off, allowing Adam Whitelock onto the field... [+]

May 8th 2009 - New Star Trek

"The film explores the origins of James T. Kirk, Spock and the crew of the USS Enterprise from the original "Star Trek" series and how these iconic characters came together. According to rumors, the story involves an elder Spock (Nimoy) and a group of Romulans (led by Nero, played by Bana) being transplanted into the past where Spock must prevent the Romulans from irreparably damaging the timeline. To do so, he will have to enlist the assistance of his younger self (Quinto)."

Well, personally, as soon as I found out about this, I wasn't very interested, even with Nimoy in it (how many minutes does he get?). Anyway, this young crew is most likely geared for the new generation of course, to try and keep the dream alive. So they bring all these young stars so kids will be like, "Oh wow, it's Quinto!"

The only Star Trek I ever watched was with Shatner and Nimoy, the original crew.

Check out Spock on the left in the pilot episode of Star Trek and with the creator Gene smiling! Smiling, what a rare thing, heh heh...
