I ran an 03 IS300 the other day in my infiniti I30t, from a stop by the time i got to 70mph, i was already 1/2 a car length ahead and pulling. When we got to the next light he was very surprised but still gave me a thumbs up 
cool guy, hope to run him again someday, but he might have a turbo by then, and then i'd be

Don't leave us hanging...is there a wheel/tire combo that can shed that much weight?

Still though, I love those Lexi. Very sharp looking car and its a Lexus so you know its built real good.

So what is the best 4th gen 5spd 1/4 mile time stock?
What is the best 5th gen automagic 1/4 mile time stock?
How bout average times?
Street races don't prove a darn thing.

5thGen = 00 - 01 Year Model Maxima's
4thGen = 95 - 99 Year Model Maxima's
are both cars in the same mechanical conditions? are both injectors in the same condition? both fuel pumps same condition? both fuel filters? both spark plugs?
the fact of the matter is .. more 4thGen's walk more 5thGen's .. just because 1 or 2 isloated incidents doesn't mean that your car is faster than all 4thGen's.
and 4thGen's were walking 5thGen's before we got Variable Intakes, and now we do.. you 5thGen's have NO CHANCE WHATSOEVER
