Got me a MAX!!
Well I finally did it..got rid of my '00 Toyota Celica..got me a brand new '03 Maxima Grey Lustre Titanium Edition..didnt get the 6spd though, livin in my city too much traffic was just too much of hassle with my 5spd Celica..theres soo much more room for me especially with my wife and 1yr old daughter and theres definitely more power..already got plans for a new front grill, bodykit, tint, springs, and maybe a new system..anyone got suggestions on what types I should get...

well then people must not know how to drive they 2k2 auto's because i out run them with a bone stock 99 over and over 
but then again.. when you race on the highway you don't run from a dead stop
FYI .. blu and Neal are trapping close to the same.. as a matter of fact.. Dave B is trapping with blu.. so you telling me faster means 1/4 mile times? or faster as in a race on the highway?
but then again.. when you race on the highway you don't run from a dead stop

1/4 times are where it matters(higher traps can indicate no traction), but I am not gonna argue, cause this is the web and we all know about your sig disclaimer, haha.
Its all good Sprite

If I had a family and child I would get a Auto too, Personally I don't think there is anything wrong with a Automatic Maxima.
Its got plenty of HP for everyday crusing, Its not like you are going to take your Wife and 2 year old Kids Racing.
If you did that, shame on you for risking their lifes
Congrats on Getting the Maxima

I don't think it was, "I'm glad that I don't have a 5spd!"

It took me an hour and a half to get home yesterday with all the wrecks, yet having a 5spd did not bother me.

So go plot some Dyno curves divided by pot hole mass then factor in cell phone use raised to the nth power and then see how good autos are, hehe
Its all in good fun

4th Gen 3.0 5MT: high-14's to low-15's @ 92-93
5th Gen 3.5 4AT: high-14's to low-15's @ 92-93
When you narrow it all the way down to Car A vs Car B then results may vary. But in the grand scheme of things the two cars perform very similarly both at the track and on the highways.

Traps are simular.. that means that the cars are simular..
blu you are getting 2.0 60fts.. hardly 5spd 4th Gen owners can pull that off.. so obviously your 1/4 mile times would be faster..
with 2.2 60fts you are running .4 secs slower.. which is basically 14.2/14.4 ..
anywhoo.. the cars are basically on par with each other from a dead stop.. and on the highway or from a roll the 5spd 4th Gen has the advantage

Untill you guys find some way to prove to me otherwise, I say A stock 2k2 Auto 0wn3s a stock 4th Gen 5 speed in the 1/4.
I watched Matt run a 14.66 with a low milege 100% stock auto. It wasn't rocket science. Any stock A32's doing this????

I'd get an Adire Audio Brahma, Better Audio D2 series or an Elemental Designs A series sub for a nice SQL Sub that can compare/exceed a W7 for a lot less.
