Flashback in yellow

I found the below while looking through some photos and thought I'd post them for your amusement.  In 2005 I was looking for a new car and fell in love with a bright yellow Sentra SE-R SpecV.  It was a quick little car and handled really well.  After clocking about 15k miles I decided to add a few bits to make it more fun.  Bits like a cold-air intake, headers, cat-back exhaust, stiffer springs and, of course, a nitrous injection kit.  Not only was planning and installing these upgrades a blast, but the car itself was fun to drive.  Ultimately the G37 took its place, but I'll always hold fond memories of this Sentra.

You can see the fuel and nitrous solenoids above the strut tower brace.  The mixture was injected via a nozzle tapped into the rear of the cold air intake tube just before the throttle body.  Note the painted engine cover!

The nitrous bottle and heater were stowed in the trunk next to the factory Rockford Fosgate subwoofer.

The bottle heater, purge button, and master arming switch were hidden inside the console pocket.  Note the air/fuel mixture meter inside this storage area as well.

The window switch that only allowed the nitrous to inject within a set RPM range.  Injecting nitrous at too low of an RPM or while bouncing off the rev limiter can damage the engine.

To top it all off I had a laptop mount with software that could display vital engine statistics fed from the ODBII port.  This was high-tech for 2005!
