Some of you guys keep being down on the Potanzas...

I thought the general thought was that they have bad wet traction, and otherwise a nice tire?

I have them on my car... haven't had a problem really. Didnt give me huge confidence in wet otherwise... they seem fine to me

Would driving at an altitude of 6,000 feet affect my Max's 0-60 time? or should the computer automaticaly adjust to the altitude? Does anyone know?

Way to bump an ancient thread. We have a newbie thread for questions like this.It would GREATLY affect your 0-60 and hp. The ECU adjusts, but it doesn't make up for the loss of atmospheric pressure. I'm @ anywhere from 5600 - 7400, and see about 11.61 PSI of pressure at 7400 vs the standard 14.7 @ sea level.

Yeah and for the altitude thing, you're just a short google search away from enlightenment...

His bumping of this old thread = increased post counts for all involved, though. Is it really so bad?

Since it's a titanium edition I believe it's .1 faster because of the weight reduction.

Sterling Mist has some metal flake, so it may affect wind resistance slightly, so my $$'s on Black.

As someone else who's unfortunate enough to live over a mile above sea level I can tell you that oh yes, the high altitude KILLS performance! The computer can adjust everything it can and it doesn't matter.

I drove my Maxima down to LA last year. The power difference was night and day. My brother-in-law has a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8 with 420hp. My Maxima at sea level felt as fast as his Jeep does here. I'm so envious of the guys that live near sea level now.

Yes. A decent one is http://www.albeedigital.com/supercou...0-60times.html

It has 6.0 for 2002 Nissan Maxima SE. I think it's safe to assume that's for the 6spd. I think that quote comes from Car and Driver.

Yes, it is from Car and Driver. Here is the full review:

But yeah... that still doesn't answer the question about the automatic.

it should be about 6.2 with a good launch. my 2000 takes about 6.9-7.2 seconds so theres no way an 02 does it in anymore than 6.5
