Also will someone please give me a link to a website or online magazine where the Altima or Maxima does 14. -14.2 I keep hearing this but have yet to see the facts (also please no site's of people who own these cars)

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.
