Chariot Speedometer video - what is going on ?

man the vq has so much power the speedometer cant even keep up or figure out what is going on ? lol, just kidding, took off like i stole it, and was spinning tires, holding a camera and just having fun. these engines own all !

Neeeaaaaat.

I take it 90% of us drive around in our cars with the CEL on? I hope you were running to the nearest gas station at incredible speed, you're a bit low on the petrol.

How do you shift into second and the RPMS only go down to 6000?

I'm pretty sure he's got a JWT ecu which prob = CEL.


Nice vid. That looks like my car after I got my ES motor mounts installed. I drove it when it was like 50 degree's out and it just spun and spun. Now I got 225's on there and don't have that problem so much, maybe when it gets cooler out it will change.... awesome vid.

My SES/CEL has been on for quite a while, this weekend I'm finally having a bad o2 sensor replaced so hopefully I won't have to see the SES light on for a while

Good vid, Ceasar

actually he has a TS ECU and his Maxima is a 97, so I guess thats the reason for the CEL.

Can you tell us why yours is on as well in your sig?

Along with what seems to be a cold engine from the temp gauge which is free reving up past 7000 RPM's? That must do good things to the motor.

yeah, i run 98 octane at 6.00 dollars a gallon which explains why I ride around on empty, lol !
---------

yes, ceasarschariot.net or the cardomain site has the mods list

________

i love the vq30de, but am jealous of the vq35de

---------

i dont really know, i just tried to hold the camera steady, nudge my knee against the steering wheel a bit, punched the gas pedal, and shifted the best i could.

--------
it is sorta a backroad, and sorta not ? small population here

-------
im not going to try to spice up vids until after the drag meet in november, as for as the blasted check engine light, i have so many codes that when you do the check code thingy you really have to get into a rhythm to figure out what is what, i know all o2 sensors are shot, egr has something wrong, who knows the car runs. you know some guy said that nissan has a space station and they use peoples vin numbers to send a signal to set off cel's to get you to drop by and drop off some money for mechincal work, lol...joking

-----
yeah this wrong side of the road thing takes some getting used to. i swap from right hand drive to left hand drive all the time, and in one car im hitting the blinkers when im going for the wipers and vice versa. you also find yourself getting in cars on the wrong side and stuff.

---

the chariot is getting left behind by all these guys doing the 3.5 swap, but im going to hang in there with the 3.0 until she blows up, which will never happen.

His clutch is biting hard. It's just loosing traction. You can hear the tires spinning. Not only that but the 2-3 shift and 3-4 shift should tell you it's not slipping...

aaaaaa..... he has a 1995 automatic ecu in his 1997 manual 5 speed and the auto ecu is sending a signal to the auto tranny but tranny is saying hey im not who you think i am and check your mail box cause you got mail i mean you got codes. and any way the 95 maxima uses a 3 wire oxygen sensor and the 97 uses a 4 wire one . and i don't want no holla back girl
