I raced my friends stock GSR when I had my V6 accord (also stock). It was close, but I ended up being slightly ahead before we shut it down. Much of it depends on the driver of the GSR though....

you can take him

you should beat him easy if you have a 5 speed and you can drive...the type R is the real competition for the maxima...

GS-R's are dangerous

GS-R's run low 7's to 60 and mid-15's in the quarter, and if he has headers and a VTEC controller he'll be a little faster. I know Max 5spd's can run with a GS-R and I think you guys would probably have a slight edge (stock v stock), but then his mods might put him about even.

I think it would be a very close and even race and that it would come down to who's the better driver, IMHO.
