    Just read about it from an advertorial in the motoring section of today's (11/28/2008) Philippine Star.

    I'll look at it again tomorrow for the details.

    All I can remember are:

    *only for GX m/t.
    *LPG kit is by an Italian firm.

    The alternative is to have your choice of sentra installed with your choice of auto-lpg kit and still have it's warranty intact. Nissan Balintawak can let you do this as mentioned in the other Sentra/Auto-LPG thread.

    Some more details from the article:

    *Sentra 1.3 GX M/t only

    *First in the market with a bi-fuel with factory-fitted and approved LPG-powered powertrain.

    *NMPI invested over Php 1 M in developing it. Over 1.5 + years in research and development.

    *Vehicle was developed in close cooperation with the Nissan Techinical Center South East Asia (NTC-SEA) and NMPI's Engineering and Manufacturing Group.

    *2 years (?) or 100,000 kms warranty.

    *Italian LPG conversion kit manufacturer Landi Renzo S.p.A is the official supplier of the power units.

    Sounds like a taxi operator's deal more than anything else.

    I'd rather buy the automatic version of the Sentra N16 1.3L ... er... wait, I think we did buy the automatic version Sentra 1.3L N16 a few months ago.
