Maxima VS. RSX

[Buc4019]

Can my 96 Maxima SE 5sp beat a stock manual Acura RSX?

You will burn a base RSX, a Type-S will be a damn close race, and will probably come down to driver skill. Shift hard and kick some ass.

check out carstats.com, yo'r year Max doesn't show up, but at best he will probably beat u off da line & N da quarta, but da margin of victory is narrow & will come down 2 da driver'z skillz or lack thereof just like Thrasher said N da 1st reply.

Acura RSX Type S 0-60=6.1 1/4=14.8 Trapspeed=95

Max 96 0-60=6.6 1/4=15.2 Trapspeed=92

Max 97 0-60=7.1 1/4=15.5 Trapspeed=90

hope diz helpz.:flash:

I raced one, but I think he was stock and I had CAI and exaust only......... I won, but I was mad I didn't beat him more

don't feel bad if you don't beat or beat enough a integra or rsx. especially if you have the old 3rd gens that are only 160hp and youre going up against a higher model integ or rsx. Think of the weight difference. maybe itd be more fair if you were alone and they crammed like 6 more people in the other car!

Yeah, I felt the same way when I pulled up next to this Tiburon V6 and Mustang at a light in Fayettenam (Fayetteville, NC), he was so busy looking to race the Rustang he just looked over at me with 3 other people in the car and kinda blew me off like he ain't no threat. I pulled up to where the front of my car was even with his rear seat that way he figured I wasn't going to race. He rolled down his window and said something to the guy driving the Rustang, the light went green and I nailed it and him and the Rustang too. When he finally got to the next light I yelled out the window "Family Sedan" and one of his passengers was laughing at him.
My point being don't ever feel bad about whippin on one of these so called sportscoupes or sportcars, even if he beat you, he will still be surprised to see how fast your max is.:flash:

Good point, these guys in their little integra's and crx's think they can take me no problem, but I always give them a run for their money and I either win big, or lose within inches. They're always surprised your "family sedan" can run a 15 sec 1/4 mile :smoker:

Hey P, what's up? Just wondering, what kind of mods you got under the hood of that bada$$ 95 SE?:bandit:

[Paonessa]

it's pretty close to stock.
i have a Stillen cat-back exhaust system, a weapon-R carbon fiber ram air intake and a tornado fuel saver dealy.
i have a video with sound of me running a 1/8 mile strip i can send you if you wanna hear it.
