How did I answer my own question? Magazines said the Sevilles are faster than Maximas, but my Maxima beat two Sevilles. You said we were beating cars that had resources 2 seconds faster than ours and were wondering how Maximas beat Z-28s. That was my point, magazines get better acceleration times for other cars, but in races Maximas usually can stay with or beat cars that had better magazine numbers. You cant see a Maxima keeping up with a Trans Am because you know nothing about what a Maxima can do.. MotorWeek.org has 14.4@100 mph for a 5 speed 02 Altima. Motor Trend last 3.5 SE Altima they tested was 14.4@98mph. Unless your LT1 is modded you couldnt pass a 02 03 Maxima or Altima with 5 or six speeds. |

I figured you might be able to figure it out for yourself but you cant.
We have been talking about racing from 30 mhp and on. You should read some of your posts, you dont know anything about our cars so I dont even know why you came in here, LEARN HOW TO SPELL since you think your so smart.. |

Re: Cars I RAPED!!!
The GM 3400 AND 3800 are slow, in every car. Only the FI 3800 can beat a max.

Re: Cars I RAPED!!!
yeah, and don't get me started on the 3100 series. like the z26 beretta(i've had a few try to get the best of me...ha) and chevy lumina.
and the FI 3800 can beat a max given certain conditions. i've beaten a stock GTP in my car. when he reduced the size of his S/C pulley, it was a different story.

Re: Cars I RAPED!!!

First off who the fuck magazine races?
There are plenty of guys in a 5 speed Maxima STOCK that pulled 14.8 through the 1/4 mile. Just because a magazine got 15.5 doesn't mean that, that was the best possible time out of that car. The V6 Camaros, Firebirds, and Mustangs are SLOW. I respect the pony cars, except for Mustangs, I love Z28s and Trans Ams. I got raped by a WS6 6spd, and I loved every moment of getting killed by it. Sounded so bad ass. I have an automatic Max with intake and ypipe. That WS6 was definetly a LS1, didn't understand why he was picking on me. I guess cause everybody in the car just glanced over. But the V6 pony cars are a walk in the park for the Max. It all comes down to driver really, but if you magainze race, I don't know what to say... |

The people who test import cars don't really push the ride or something, but when it comes to domestic cars they place faster times. They are very biased; that's how I see it.

Re: Cars I RAPED!!!
All I can say is don't race a Northstar V8 from the roll, they will murder you.
They are heavy but get off the line pretty well for their weight but the 2nd gear in the Max is hell for them because of the lighter weight of our cars, so we say goodbye to them from 0-60, I don't care what a Magazine says. I raced one of my employees Cadillac STS and he murdered me from the roll from about 40-100 but when we went from a standing start to 100, he was eating Maxima fumes, in fact he pretty much gave up after 35 mph because he knew that it was over and that he wouldn't catch me. He even told me that last part after the race was over. Oh, btw that was in my 2k Max, so I wonder if he'd want to try it against my 2k3 Max.
