These guys are claiming that they will whip up on 02/03's Maximas with 90-96 Z's most stock. They also say oh I beat 95-01's as well and what funny stock for stock the 95-01's put down better times than 90-96 N/A z's go figure.

Either way, they have a sports car and you've got a family sedan...

 

They need to update their message board. That thing looks ancient.

 

yup dont mess with the Z's we have 4 door sedans they have sports cars..

 

I can't believe nobody from here has posted on that Z forum yet. I thought about it, but I figured as long as they're bashing 5th gens I would stay out of it.

 

i wouldnt consider a N/A Z a sports car... more like a iron sled on wheels

 

I would completely agree on this. They may only have two doors but they have just as much if not more weight than the 00-01. I have run a 300ZX non turbo before any of my mods and I took it each time. He was 5spd and I am auto. He used to come into my old job and hassle me until we raced then I could not get him to come out anymore.

 

i beat N/A Zs like civics....the automatics are the worst.

 

One of the guys posted how he beat his friends '00 5 speed max at the strip everytime and posted the slips. His friend had a 60' of almost 2.5 sec! If he knew how to launch the thing, he would have beat him.

My co-worker had an '93 Z (auto) and I used to STOMP him.

 

man i was laughing at some of those posts.

"maybe it wasnt a v6"
"who would upgrade their headlights and tails to look newer"

oh boy if they only knew

 

Man, there are some seriously stupid morons over there at ZCar...4cyl Maxima!?!?! a Maxima GL? Damn they should all be shot....fools! Props to "TheBlue".
I just couldn't justify regestering to that sad web site; just to make fun of all the morons.

 

why does every other board think the 2k2s have 260hp????

those guys are idiots--- maxima gl? and to think they even drive a nissan.

 

our sites so pretty compared to theirs

 

Motor Trend, Road Test, June 1994

Ask us, and we'll tell you how the Maxima SE will whip the Nissan 300ZX, Integra GS-R and Taurus SHO in 0-60 mph and quarter-mile acceleration-and how it challenges or, in some cases, exceeds their handling marks, too."

"Our tester, a five-speed SE version of this fourth generation of Maxima, produced a blazing 6.6-second 0-60-mph time, a 15.2-second, 92.4-mph quarter-mile run, 0.83g skidpad cornering power and a 65.1-mph slalom run. That tops the Taurus SHO five-speed in every category. The new Maxima shows no mercy on its Nissan stablemates: It'll stomp the normally aspirated 300ZX, and drivers of automatic-transmissioned 300ZX Turbos best not be snoozing when the light goes green."

 

our sites so pretty compared to theirs

 

I think cars are similar to people--muscle weighs more than fat. When a small german car that's what, 15" shorter than a Max weighs hundreds of lbs more, is that good design or poor design. The former is seriously higher quality and tighter.

 

perfectly said.

 

I would go post but i hate that style of forum

 

I know it sucks. Maxima.org rules!

 

Cheston warned us about those Z owners...................

 

well some people like that style.. because it allows you to see the person's comment without opening up the post..

i know that Jeff92SE likes that style.. lots of senior org members like that style too.. i guess i am just so use to the new forums now

 

What about this people?


Can someone please explain the differences between the 2 model years please?






What a dope!

 

maybe thats 4 cyl version.

 

sleeping turbo auto 300zs

 

morons, all of them. "how do you know what condition the car was in???" i guess EVERY one ive ever raced/seen race has been in bad mechanicaly condition then.

damnit how come nissan couldnt give my 240 over 200 hp, if i had 220 id be running mid to low 14s
now im stuck running 15.3 on 155 hp

 

not to mention you have a truck engine, swap a SR20 in there!.......lmao sorry i had to, i just read your cardomain page......i love your front end, very intimidating.


Trevor

 

because if they did, it would out sell the 300zx....
and the z is pretty much god and nissan couldnt have a little ole 240 beatin up on their flagship sportscar in the twisties and the quarter could they?

 

Yeah and never be able to service it....but It's still well worth it!
I wann see the cardomain page, I love 240s!

 

i think id rather boost something with an iron block and just switch out the pistons and rods no replacement for displacement, how many sr20dets in 240s do u see pushing over 440hp, not many, how many KAs do u see, well only a few but u get the point!

 

do you need more than 440hp?

since your 15.5s now i would stick to 440 hp

 

15.3 yo! 440 sounds like a nice number to have before rear differentials start exploding and driveshafts break... oh wait i forgot u guys dont have those... damn you FWD!!

 

nice sig

 

lets see them race ethan's n/a family sedan that traps @ 101mph

 

I just posted there, what a bunch of fools..

 

i lost 5 braincells reading that crap, hmm....their egos must power their cars, or they cant come to grips that they DID NOT buy a TT. but if its a 300zx it much be fast regardless.

 

For some reason, mag numbers and comments are considered invalid on this site. I guess that's until they are in favor of the Max.

 

maybe they're just mcdonalds workers that wnats everyone to knwo that they own a sport car but can't afford a real one like mustang V6

 

thats what im saying...
they have that i went to look at a mustang but was turned down for a loan hint in their voices

 

those numbers are still higher than the fastest stock 4th gens......whats your point? i think he was referring to the quote itself.
