Hmmmmm VR4????????
I want to ask how fast is a Galant VR4? I know how fast a 3000GT VR4 is because my friend had one. Is the Galant VR4 as fast or faster than the 3000GT VR4? Interesting...I do have to say the 3000GT VR4 looks better though.

umm...i dont know anything about the galant vr-4, but i would definitely have to say it is slower than the 3000gt vr-4 is

My 1995 Honda Civic EX (125 hp and 106 tq) trapped 85.06 on 17" wheels that weighed 23lbs a piece, my first time ever at the track, not knowing how to drive at the track. Assuming you aren't in colorado, there is something majorly wrong with your car.

Low 14s with a stock Galent VR-4? I think not. The Galant is no better a performer than the Talon TSi AWD of that year. High 14s/low 15s is the norm, assuming a pretty hard launch. If you launch at 2000-3000, you'll be stuck in the mid 15s.

I was about to say the same thing, but I didn't know if they were talking about Galant VR4 or 3000GT VR4 at that point. There's no possible way a GVR4 is running a low 14 bone stock, they have the same drivetrain as the 1st gen DSM (low 15-high 14 stock) AND an extra 200-300 lbs to lug around. A manual boost controller can change this, but as they come BONE STOCK FROM THE FACTORY, they will never see low 14s.

Si vs 5-speed...i would say the 5 speed, that is assuming both cars have bolt ons. i know Si and stock autos can hang so it would be a good race to see.

at my track here in Washington St, i've seen a '91 or something around there Plymouth Lazer, which is essentially an Eclipse or Talon, with only front wheel drive tick off a 13.999 on stock equipment. he averages 14.2s with occasional 14.1s and 14.0x i don't doubt for a second a VR-4 can run a low 14 if it has been maintained.

Re: 4th gen Maximas vs Si.
well i don't wanna say this, last week after i picked up my sister and her friends from the airport(4 people in my car), there was a civic si trying to race me off the line, there's no way he can keep up with me, just hate those civics thinking they have 250hp and $hit like that with those altezza tailights, and one more thing is i drive an AUTOMATIC!!!!!

I ran my car in the quartermile, and I'm a lot faster than 15.7, that's all I'm gonna say about that.
So any NA Maxes want to step up to the plate?

CIVIC SI kill
With my 96 automatic GXE, I ran a 99 Civic SI. Funny part about it, the SI would not give me an even break. I would cruise at 60, and he would come up from behind me, not slowing down. Shoot, make me catch his @ss. Anyway, i'm doing 60, and passes me about 80 - I had the maxi in 3rd, caught up to him at about 95, then hit 4th gear - That's when I left him, and that when I found out that I have a F@@@@@ governer on the car that won't allow me to go past 115.

Yo,
I'm a 5 speed with some stuff. I'm in the NYC area, too. Let's hook up and see what the real deal is

PLEASE!!
HON-DUHH CiViCs AiN'T SH*T....a civic is still a civis no matter what you do..LoL..PUHAHHAHAHHA

All the smack talking doesn't amount to much by either side. Some Honda civis Si's do go into the 14's but are NOT stock. You guys wanna see what happens to a Honda Civic Si w/turbo kit vs. a modded Max? Go see the video in this thread.
