CL-S goes down hard!
Oh my gosh!! I am stock right now, since I sold my cone intake and havn't installed my CAI yet. But anyways, I had this CL-S come up next to me at a light, and the guy is next to me looking over (of course I looked), and he was reving his engine at me!! This CL-S had paper plates on the front! Only part I saw when he pulled up.. Well, I rev back to acknoledge lets run.
I had no idea what the outcome was going to be since this was off the line. But we lanched, I lanched her lightly and nailed the gas, car just pulled like a bat with the stock intake in!! I was surprised! 1st gear put half a car on that, hit 2nd hard, spun a little, and pulled about another 1/4 of a car, once I hit 3rd, I started to walk away. I let off when I was about 1 1/2 cars in front of him and this was around 90~!
Also since I did not see the badging, It was a CL-S. I saw the big wheels, and the spoiler on the rear.
See ya cl-s!

LOL! LET ME BE THE FIRST LMAO!
I am not going to jump on this guy or argue with you guys, but you have to admit tho, that was a funny a$$ story! 
I won't say no more..... 
One thing tho, alot of members have a clp and have put cls wheels on their cars. Check our boards. Another thing, what are you driving stock (auto or stick) that you could see a cls? pls say 6spd! Actually don't reply...I will leave you guys alone

Must be nice to put CL-S wheels on a car with black tags on it. Black tags means it still belongs to the dealer. So I know it wasn't a fake CL-S.

I guess with a new dealer car he just so happened to brake torque at the light. Thus, messing up the engine on a car he probally doesn't own. Moreless, if it's a dealer car, HE REALLY knew what he was doing huh?

I know russ is not liked on some boards but his story can easily be true ACLSLURKER. I live in canada and i have raced 2 cl-s and beat them. One on the highway droping to 3rd gear and another one on harwood from a standing start. The thing about manual cars is that you can always find a way to drive it better. That can explain the auto cl-s 14.7 to the manual max 15.1. Even though those were pro's driving they still don't get time to learn the sweet spots of the vq.
I know i can get a better time then 15.1 because i raced my boy's b16 swap in his 91 civic and he barley beat me he ran consistent 14.3-4's. This was from a start, i could always beat him on the highway though. Now i have mods< stillen y pipe stillen intake> and i'm noticably faster. Good kill russ

Most CL-S I've Raced have either kept right next to me, or have lost by a little bit, or vise versa. Its all the driver and Condition with my 2k2 vs. the CL-S. So Russ may have had a better day driving than the guy in the CL-S, to really know is to race that same guy many times.
So far my CL-S battle scores are:
Maxima CLS
6 - 2
both were K&N filter vs. CAI
I have access to CL-S racers, since we are in the same club.

well i guess the nav girls showed up after all. russ don't you know that if you have nav you are faster and there is no way you could ever beat a type s even though you have done it before and lots of other people have too. i haven't ran into one yet but i can't wait.

Hey! Does Maxima.org's membership jump everytime Russ makes one of these posts? Seems to be a lot of seepage from other boards when he does. All of these people come out of the woodwork...

Really, And i guess the 02 Maxima owners are NavWhores or NavWomen Anyway, if the guy beat the cls oh well. I just have a problem with B.S. races. The guy says he had temp (dealer) tags on the car and he's been driving his max for a minute. Yeah...ok...now really that's about as bad as me waiting for a fool to pull out of the nissan dealership with a brand new 6spd max and I pull up to a light and race him and walk him. I have had my cls for a year now, I pretty much know where and when to launch and to know if I need to gateshift or SS. Like I said in a previous post, my cousin owns a 5spd 00 SE Charcoal Max and we race everytime we go out. I just keep my car in 3rd and redline is not until 120, I walk him all the time. I guess he doesn't know how to drive huh? Get real, race experience drivers and then talk about who you walked or raced. Newbies or non-broken in cars don't mean $hit especially with temp tags. Good kill tho, I guess i will wait at the Nissan dealership and wait for the next victim to pull off from the showroom, so i can walk the 6spd too.

Now, for one, I have never raced a 6spd max and from my cousin's friends, they said they are an animal at highend power. My car is modded with headers, CAI, Pulleys, HKS Draggers...A guy from our site hit 14.2 w/ the same stuff I have using the gateshifter. I might not be able to beat a 6spd max but, I definetly would not let that driver walk me....or leave me a full car length.

one of our members hit 14.3 the first time with his six speed STOCK!!!.
YOU are talking 6spd do I see a cls with 6spd (not until march-april)NO! Why do you think i modded the cls? I have a automajic.....now, if this was a conversation in 2002 and i take the hit trading my 01 cls for the 03 model with 6spd 290hp then I will be arguing about you guys 6spd max. For now I give you guys your props, I like the car, I just don't like the b.s. races. We get on our members too, who talk b.s. races. Until i see one of you guys, on the road this cls and tls vs max crap will probally always go on. Just be careful if you go up against me....I am freaking modded road animal (no holdbars)!
