Please post your 1/4 times!!
Please post your best 1/4 mile times (ET/60 foot/mph). I want to see how I compare tomorrow when I take my 2000 GXE 5 speed to the track tomorrow.
Please list if you have a manual or auto and any mods.
Thanks

I hit 15.1 stock on stock 17's potenza's, with my body kit.
So you should be able to hit a good 14.9 or 15.0. stock.
Good luck remember it's all in the launch

15.81 @ 87.1 (if you believe in it - corrected to standard conditions -> 15.7 @ 88)
They key to maxima's seems to be the launch, which is a bit easier for you 5spd guys than us autos. I'm completely and utterly stock on 16" toyo's.
Now, mr. 15.3, how in the h*ll did you do that? what technique did you use to launch? what tire pressure? etc.

What do you guys think about cold air effects on the performance of the engine ? I mean real cold air like -10 to -20, I am wondering if that could make a difference compare to if you run in the low 70's( I think I know the answer but any how I'd like to get more info about it ).
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers to all of you.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Please post your 1/4 times!!
Um, Okay, that's cool. I don't doubt your times...I'm just wondering how that was timed.
I raced at Rock Falls Raceway, Wisconsin on 5/12/2001.
Car was stock normal 2000 automatic except for OSCAI. Tank was 1/4 full, and spare tire was left in the trunk. Weather was mid 80's and pretty humid. Races were electronically timed on the measured 1/4 mile track.
Launch method was torque brake at 2000 rpm, pedal to the metal, shifts occurred @ redline. Shifting and launch could not get any better.
R/T - 0.745
60' - 2.529
330 - 6.810
1/8 - 10.311
1/4 - 15.785
MPH - 89.11

Stock 00' 5spd (CALI SPEC) with OSCAI:
60' 2.43
1/4 15.54
mph 90.66
Temp 90+ degrees
** I was only at the track for just over an hour, so the car never got a chance to cool down. All of my runs were made at regular operating tempature, and my tire pressure was normal as well.

Thats light mods, considering my cousin has a decked out ///M3 motor in his 92 5 series(started out 525, til hydrolocked.)
As for what a 328i runs ? I beat one when I was almost bone stock, so who knows ?

Oh yeah, just to rub it in a little more... I finished ahead by 0.278!!!
I can't wait until it cools down here so I can get some good numbers. It's been at least 100F for quite some time now.

OK Guys, I am the one who started the thread here are my results:
Took the Maxima to the track for the first time today (2000 GXE 5 Speed). My Mustang Club had rented the track for 4 hours. I was able to run 8 times in the first 1.5 hours, but quit because I was so frustrated. Every time I raced, they set me up agaist an 11-12 second car. I couldn't hear my engine or tell if my tires where spinning. It sucked. I could have ran 15 more times if I wanted to.
Here is my best run:
r/t .546
60 2.396
330 6.57
1/8 9.978/71.9mph
1000 12.91
1/4 15.37 / 93.42 mph.
The mph seems good, but I am very disapointed in the times. My 60ft sucks. I can't drive for ****. I was really hoping for 14.9's. It was supposed to be in the low 70's today, but the cold front did not come through. It was probably close to 90 when I was racing, and the track is at 700ft above sea level.
I never powershifted and tried leaving the line at 3000 rpms. I spun badly on every launch, or bogged terrible. I wish this thing had some better low end torque, it would make it much easier to pull out.
Just for comparison's sake, I had the g-tech hooked up while I did my runs. On this particular run, it recorded:
14.9 @ 99.1 mph.
It was consistently off by this same amount.

Actually, I just haven't had the time or money to get it installed. I hope to get it done in the next weekend or so.
