Maxima vs 540i

dang that was hella fun. it was 730pm when i was almost home from school. there was a 6spd 540 to the right of me at the light(i saw how the car launched). i knew it would be a waste of maxima thrill to hand his *** from 1st - 2nd gear so we rolled...neither of us punched it until i was onto 3rd and he gunned it. the thing was that my lane merges onto his lane so this sucker didn't want me to pass him. then i gunned it at 3rd and he took me by 1 - 2 feet. all the way about 1/2 mile i kept up with him on 3rd. i looked over and the guy looked like a doctor/grandpa or sum bag. the moral was that i'm still bone stock and have yet to do a major mod and he was a 6spd V8. i think made him sweat. so much for $50,000

anybody know if i can swap in a 350Z ecu with the vq35?

They have around 282-290HP and 310TQ... Mind you BMW tends to underrate their engines... That car is fast as hell and the torque is gutwrenching...

What kind of Maxima do you have and what mods?

A stock 540i 6 speed would beat a 6 speed Maxima, if it was properly driven.
