While I am one of Fords biggest detrators, I don't think crowing about a minor handling advantage to the Maxima or M3 is called for. None of us drive our cars to the edge of their traction. We do however quite often move off the line as fast as it'll go.

I have a 87LX, that will pull over 73mph in a slalom, and pull 1g on the skid pad.

I have coilovers, panhard bar, torque arm, front springs are 400lbs, and rear are 350, and caster and camber plates. All parts are from Maximum Motorsports.

I also own a GTR, if I go racing guess which one will win

Bad cornering?... Guess you missed out on the last 35 years of the F-Body and still the Mustang... Both are very fast cars. And both can turn corners like nobodies business. Lets not even get started on the whole 'Vette and Viper handling thing... those cars just Own most anything in stock form.

For Pete's sake man... its Ferrari!
well maybe i should look at some american muscle then. Like i said I CANT SPELL. i am a

German shit With narrow minded statements like that I think I speak for everyone when I say your not welcome here.

Second unless that GT was modified I have to throw up the flag. Your trying to get us to beleave that you beat a 13sec car in a 15sec one Now I am not saying it couldnt happen, maybe he missed a shift or something, but dont act like its norm for GT's to beat M3's. Sounds to me like you just got pissed off because you felt your car company was being attacked so you just tried to get back at the person by saying you beat a car the same kind and year as theres. Please people grow up

damn...i missed a lot...ah well...

1st, the 2000 GT isn't a 15 second car, more like a 14.0 car. the late 90's m3's pull low 14's all day as well, so it'd be a very close race. i understand u want him to be more open minded, but plz, have accurate times atleast in ur arguement.

Come on now..You think I baught the M3 for stictly racing purposes?..Hell no..If I wanted a "racing M3" I would have gotten a Super lightweight M3 as compared to the bulky standard E36 M3....yeah I'll race it from time to time, but from day 1 I had no intention of going all out on it....That's what the Rx-7 and Civic are for..

Hmm ok then... But by the looks of things... It seems like your M3 would still be as fast if not a bit faster than your Civic and Rx-7.

Any clue as to what your play cars run?

i'd say his vic is around low 14's...MAYBE high 13's.

so his "built" car isn't' much quicker than his M3 if at all...

Actually i'd assume it ran faster than High 13's..simply because the car ran 14.4@99.3 when the engine was in "purchased condition"....With the stock honda torsen LSD, lightened flywheel(done by the installers before purchase)...And my car is of course gutted(Not to the extreme, I still have door cards...but, no carpet sparco corsa's no center console no deadener no spare and lexan side windows(still glass windsheild and hatch due to legality)...but since the modifications i havn't been able to run it...I need new axles, and a new rear quarter to my Transmission case.......DAMN CHEAPLY MADE JAPANESE CARS..but..I love it.....
I don't know the Rx-7 at all..I havn't driven it "hardcore" yet..I've been mainly toying around with drifting and what not...Pretty advantageous when it comes to learning balance.

I've seen late 90s M3's run high 13's but maybe im thinking of the newer ones, my bad However are you sure about the GT from what I have seen and heard their not that fast stock. I mean if they were 14sec cars I think we would all be hearing more good things about them. Where did you get your numbers?
