I DRIVE A 1995 pontaic GTP with a B&M shift kit magnaflow exhaust, K&N intake, hypertech chip, new struts all the way around and a new set of potenza's im not gonna say ne thing bad about nissan im just loyal to domestics so i drive a GTP but i wanna race a Maxima and see how well i fare against one, i have a auto but like i sait its got a shift kit and at 5500 to 6000 rpm ill walk away from alot of cars, as for mustangs ill agree with every one that doesnt like em i hate ford period, smoked a 2000 firebird same 3.4 liter as me auto and a 2000 monte carlo, after 5500 rmp they were standing still. Ne one think id be a good match for a maxima or should i just leave em alone.

Re: Cars I RAPED!!!
Ogparjay, I feel you on the overall performance. Right now in my mind, the EVO 8 and STI are leaderes in bang for the buck in overall performance. Does that mean they can't be beat? No. They combine the overall package when it comes to all-around performers, for basically a little amount of money. It just depends on what you are looking for in the car you want to drive. If I want to rule the drag strip, then I'm going to buy an domestic. If I want to rule the autox, we'll there are many different opinon's and not absolute's on that. If your are a drifter, well, it seems the 240 has that on lock. Personally, I like ground pounders, but I respect everybody's thrill seeking when it comes to their rides. No hate here for imports, I just got my prefences like you have yours. Late.

shown his tailights easily. He didnt say he beat the Z-28, he stayed right beside him. I did the same thing in 96 with my 96 Maxima 5 speed, raced a 95 Trans Am, from about 40 to 100 and stayed right beside him. Also there is no way a 3.8 Camaro or Firebird can beat a 95 Maxima 5 speed either. What a joke.. Also dont toy with 2002 - 03 Altimas and Maximas with 5 and six speeds cause youll be in for a toyin.. |

i respect you dawg... giving good feedback and well opinions... i "personally" would rather see a car that can do it all and a driver that can drive on twisty tracks.... because those who have the most money usually win on the drag... and those who can win with pure driving skills they get my props....

It was a late 80's early 90's camaro. it may have been an Iroc with Z badges but it most certainly wasn't a 3800 6 cylinder, i'll shit on one of them any day of the week. look at how much a z28 weighs, 3400 lbs. that's a 500 lbs difference at least! considering it only makes 230 hp factor in the old rule of thumb-10hp per 100 lbs and you can either say that maxima rates at 240 hp or that the z28 rates at 180(for this comparo only). this is in a 4th gen 190 hp max weighing 2895 lbs. and 6 speed maxima's and 3.5 altima's are not runnin high 14's- low 15's more like mid-low 14's. There's a kid on forums.maxima.org runnin a 14.4 with just a CAI, and that's in an automatic. mustang GT's are said to be so much faster than our cars and look what ceaser did to that mustang...3 consecutive times. as far as i know he's all just bolt-ons and relatively minor ones at that. Don't sleep on the maxima's. it's got a de-tuned 350z engine and 350's run high 13's.

2. Using your table as a reference if I build a 1000 Lb Car with 10 Horsepower I can race people with 210 Horsepower and 3000 LB car's. I ve seen this table before but's its unrealistic also anyone who know's anything about cars here will back me up on this Horsepower is a figure based on torque and rpm's (a dyno doesn't actually even measure horsepower it measure's torque) and while you may have a very impressive peak horsepower figure . sports cars like the 350Z , Vette's , Mustang's . Have a wider powerband which means they have more low end torque to get the jump off the line and create a massive jump upto 5500 -6000 rpm's usually. 3. 350z's is not just a engine its a different drivetrain, suspension, it has different tires, they are more aerodynamic. Its like in 92 - 96 Vettes they used the LT1 engine making 300 Horsepower and the Impala's got a detuned version of the same engine. Now everyone answer all at once here are the the stock Impala's making passes down the quarter mile at within a second of 13.7 - 13.9 ? NO 4. 350Z cool sport's car would totally race one but I have yet to see anyone publish data showing 2003 Maxima run mid 14's , Every where I look , Like road & track , motortrend and car & driver said that they did between high 14's to low 15's. I'm not putting then down I'm just saying they are not sports car's and shouldn't be compared to them.

numbers, I also have a 98 Maxima with a auto. I raced two Cadillac Sevilles with my Maxima. The numbers for the Northstars were from 0 to 60 in 6.5 to 6.7 I have read in magazines. Numbers for 95 to 99 Maximas with autos are from 0 to 60 7.3 to 8.0. I have raced two Northstar Sevilles, and beat them both times 0 to 100 with my auto Maxima by a car lenth. I know the LS1 engine was put into the Z-28 in 98, and that just about every magazine said it to be faster than the LT1 engine. Six speeds getting 0 to 60 in 5.2 or so. ( C&D ). But in 93 C&D also got a LT1 6 speed Z-28 to 0 to 60 in 5.1 or 5.2. I do agree that they are fast cars, that they have more top speed than a 95 Maxima, but I wasnt comparing top speed, only what I did when I raced my Maxima with the Trans AM. The guy who said he beat a Z-28, I dunno if he did or not, but he could of easily beat older Mustangs with his Maxima. I whipped on GT's every race with my 96 5 speed Maxima easily.. BTW, your said Lt1's are running high 13's to low 14's. 02 - 03 Maximas and Altimas with 5 and six speeds are running 14.0 14.2 s stock. |
