Nissan vs Honda

i have a 95' Maxima (4th Gen.) .. my friend (who has a 89' Honda Civic Hatchback with an air intake) and I had a huge argument about which cars is better and of course i sided with my maxima, while he claims that his civic is a lot more powerful and has more speed than my maxima and can beat it like he was racing a bus.. i hate the way people underrate the maxima's and think that the crappy civic is better than the maxima.. what you guys think?

If he doesn't have a engine swap like a gsr or something then don't worry bout him. You will smoke him!

89 civic with an intake?!?!! Lmao haha *** on man there is no reason for you to even have a conversation with him about who is faster if he got stock engine with out a engine swap.... Plus like someone else said I would be on the street right now spanking his *** right now... But Honda civics are great cars to get and have fun beating the ish out of them... Me personally hoping I get my sis-in-laws 96 manual civic sedan.

based on the subject of this thread i think a 5 speed might be a disadvantage
