civic Si in Cali wants a race... anyone?
 
This guy keeps saying his STOCK Civic Si can take a stock 2k/2k1 maxima. I explained he's wrong but he insists on posting bogus "races" as "proof" that he's faster... for example, one involves a 2k with a slipping clutch and another is against a 40 year old woman trying to merge, not really 'racing' him.

If you own a 2k/2k1 maxima and really want to get ****ed, read this thread:

http://ephatch.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=17000

Teaser quote:
"A 2002 Maxima (auto) or (stick) would woop *** on an Si all day (but) I can hang with if not walk a 2000 Maxima."
Another teaser:
"digging through some old car mags (had a) 2k Nissan Maxima SE (auto) (running) 15.9/88.0" and "I would assume their (magazine) assessment is largely more accurate than that of yours."

Anyway, I live in NH and he lives in Fair Oaks, California, so I can't do this myself. Is there someone out that way with a stock 2k/2k1 maxima who can meet this guy at a track (or a light :nervous:)? Please let me know... I'll even paypal you a few bucks for the gas you're about to waste.

Mods, if you want to move this to the Cali region, feel free.

Thanks for reading.

if its an older si against a 2k auto then its a drivers race. a 5 speed maxima can take it though. the new si is slower than the older si... and uglier.

I've only ever talked about 5-speed, and always completely stock.

My argument was 5-speeds are regularly below 15s and his car has NEVER gone below 15.5s (best time I've read STOCK is 15.6) in the 1/4m.

Idiot ricer. :chebosto:

I've taken out two GS-R's in my 99SE 5spd. And that was on the highway where they are stronger and I am weaker. I would not expect to have any problems whatsoever taking out an Si old or new. :)

Just look at best stock 1/4 mile times...

Any 95-01 5spd Maxima can get high-14's to low-15's stock.

What can a Civic Si do? Mid-15's at best? With insane driving? :p

i would hit him up. I live in s. cali in whittier. i have a stock 97 5-sp. Fast as hell for being stock. I've beaten a modified 2K-2K1(intake,exhaust,y-pipe), must have been auto cause i took him by 3-4 cars. I'm prett sure i can take out this guy.
