Late '90's Supra vs. Me, outcome?

[JMooney5115]

I know someone in the band that said they wanted to race me. He has a late 90's Supra, I think it's an Annaversary(spell?) Edition. It's an auto non-turbo with exhaust. I have a 96 Maxima with variable intake manifold, downpipe, and intake; it's a manual. I was wonderin if anyone knew what the outcome would be. I have found that the Supra has 220HP and 210TQ, but found no 1/4 mile times. I can run about mid 14's. Be worth putting money on it?

Sorry if street racing is not accepted here.

I think it would be a good race from a stop. I would probably put my money on the supra but I don't know how your car is and I've not had a chance to ride in a modified maxima. Should be fun ethier way, just be safe about it.

considering that the variable intake and downpipe are on there, you're probably making as much hp at the engine as the supra and more tq than the supra. i'd put money on the maxima.

a downpipe on a 4th gen adds lots of power and the variable intake will give significant gains on the top end, not to mention you're about 300 lbs lighter.

Your probably right. I'm one of those people that drives both cars and relizes what's faster. I've owned both non-turbo and twin turbo supras and I know how they do. I have not the slightest clue how your car reacts so I have no way of knowing anything about them. Just line them up and see what happens. Best of luck to both of you.

it'll be a good race. let us know what happens if you guys ever do race, and be safe about it.

[JMooney5115]

Thanks for the replys. I see him tonight so I will ask if he still wants to. I will be safe, I would be so mad if I killed my car.

I think the supra would take you, just my opinion though.

i think the deciding factor will be your manual tranny....it'll be tight but you should win with a decent launch and hitting your shifts....

i would have to go with the supra, i ahve a freind that has a maxima with all these little mods and he was talkin trash on my moms gs300 and i got the keys from my moms house and took him out to a country road and beat his fwd car but thats just me oh yeah and that lexus isnt light its pretty heavy so the race could go either ways but i say the supra will take it
