I have a problem, I think, with my Maxima. Whats the 0-60 MPH timing its supposed to have if its 1996 Maxima Se Automatic with 17 inch wheels??? I think my car is not performing as well as it should. (It also has a performance K&N Intake and a straight pipe instead of the catalytic converter).

for stock 1995 se its 6.6 seconds 0-60, I assume around the same for you if not a little faster cause of the test pipe

6.6 for 5 speed, and that's a car mag test number...if you brake torque it, you should be able to get to 60 a little under 7.5 seconds. btw, 17's didn't come on maxima's until 5th gen

my 17 inch wheels are not from stock, They're aftermarket wheels.

It may be your straight pipe. They are loud, unreliable, and just straight-up unnecesarry. It may be leaking air, or may not be installed correctly.

next time u time yourself shift 1an2 manualy becouse if u dont it wont go to the red line and remember to shut off your overdrive this will probably help your time a bit.

I checked the straight pipe. Its not leaking any air and the noise is almost unoticeable. And I also timed it running 1st and second manually with the overdrive off. Any other ideas??????????
