My buddies Delsol got beat by a auto maxima with 2 guys and 2 girls in the car . with a clutch advanced timing intake ,exhaust and its a 5 speed runs prob a 16.3 . A maxima runs like a 15 something .. Sure u might of beat him but he let off the gas for the courner...Jon

 

Sorry I'm late. I'm at home for winter break and I try to stay away from using this shitty computer, but here it goes.



The last time I went to the dyno there was a '93 Max. After all those years, he was still able to get 150hp to the wheel. And I know Nissan increase every other year in hp rating. I've raced a Maxima with a car load of ppl and have gotten whipped.

 

I don't think the Maxima was really racing.

Click on the link to look at the specs of the Maxima and you decide

 

I'm assuming that Max has a mod or two done, because the stock VE engine (pre '95 models) was 160hp stock at the crank. BTW, your 3 bs flags made up for late arrival, hehehe...

 

Yeah, he had an intake, exhaust, and maybe headers.

 

No actually thats not true, 93-94 had the optional SE model that came with the 190HP VE engine My friend had a 94' SE auto and i can honistly say its the fastest family sedan ive been in. No rev limiter on the SE's so we've actaully done 145MPH BONE STOCK ....hehehe

 

Thanks for adding more info. Maximas are definitely the BEST sport sedan, no contest.

 

i still beat that maxima
anyone from northwest illinois on this forum?

 

No you didn't.

Damn... first day in the club, and already I find a Max-hater!

 

My wife's 95 Altima GXE automatic would wax his butt.More less a Maxi.BS

 

Welcome to the club. And sweet Maxima too.


I won't believe that you (tenorman) beat a Maxima till I see. Even then I probably still won't believe you. lol
Video tape it or something. Get some proof in here. You have a 1.5l 4cylinder vs a BIGV6. I have a 1.6l with the same mods you have and have gotten whopped by a Maxima with a carload of ppl in it. Another reason why I don't believe you is because my friend has a '97 1.5l pro with intake & exhaust. When my car was fully stock I could still beat him. Well, until he got his Venom performance modular, now he beats me all the time, but not by too much.

 

Those altimas are nothing remotely close to a maxima. They use some sort of K series 4cyl engines producing around 140hp? The new altimas are much more similar to the maximas, but the older altimas have about nothing in common in terms of drivetrain.

 

Bwahaha, that's funny cause I've smoked my friend's 1998 5-speed Altima GXE and my other friend's 1997 5-speed Altima GXE. Those Altimas put out 150 hp but weigh like 3000 lbs.
Their gears are really long too. I call BS on you.

Oh yeah and these older altimas suck at the twisties.

 

You think huh.what kinda 1/4 et have you ran.That BS Altima runs 15.2 and thats no BS

 

good kill!
