Cars i can beat in a race?

Ive got a 97 5sp SE with intake, cat back. I am wondering what cars I shouldn't be afraid of and which ones I shouldn't mess with. Im talking about cars in our same bracket. Like RSX type S, or hopefully not SVT focus. Im wondering. How would my car do against a sentra SER vspec. or a stock 300zx. Its alot of work to look at all of these cars and compare all of the stats. If any of you know any info, please.

It came on the car. It adds 0 HP. the guy bought it for looks. Should I mention springs or front strut bar. I guess the question is more about a slightly modded maxima vs. any other car that is comparible.

well for starters you should be able to handle a n/a 300zx, and beat a stock spec v by a little. not sure about the rsx, might be tough I cant remember if that car runs high 14's stock or not. think it does. im guessing its the fastest out of the 3.

really i thought a 300zx had 20 something more HP. Aren't those lighter than maximas too? Ive been able to catch an rsx pretty easy, but Im not sure if it was a type s.
