Yeah well he said it ran in the 11's. Proving the car even existed may be difficult though. When I get $10k to spend on some mods I may have to see if he can't help me out on the whole sending the car to Japan to get "tweaked" similar to his.

Man I gotta see one of these Maxima meets for myself someday. They sound great.

Check out the Pike teaser vid in the NE Forum.

ya and dons car is still a trailer queen.

Now I see his car dressed in drag.

steve, we had a close call? i didnt really notice really, you know me, i b1tched and moaned when we were close to the limits of your car... but i dont recall actually HAVING a close call... oh well.

ya, that's what i thought. if we did actually have TWO close calls like they thought i figured one of us would remember, maybe it looked different from outside the car.

im thinkin bout gettin rid of my car and gettin a 5-sp

1998 Infiniti I30t aka The IceBerg

Softies.

Don't meant to sound like a skeptic but I bet that most of the autos have stock size wheels and the 5 speeds have bigger wheels. No?? At least that's what I observed when there were sigs and pics. Maybe that "levelled" the palying field somewhat between 5 speed and autos.

Auto's:

Hogan has 17 inch wheels
MedicSonic has 17 inch wheels
Deezo has stock 15 Steel wheels.. which are heavier than all the aftermarket wheels that were at the pike...

plus at high speeds.. wheels don't matter much

Let's just say ALL Maxima's are quick, damn quick (relatively).

actually i think i was the only one on larger wheels.. everyone else was on stock nissan wheels

Well then, I stand corrected

DW

Yup, because my tires are still rated at 130 and could have gotten a higher rating too.

Yep.

Sprint - 18
Deezo - 15
Medic - 17
Quansung - 17
Toylet - 16
Yo its ok - 17
DMB - 17?

Ya' all would have left me in the dust !

I Just took another ride in my friends '95 5spd today...

Automagics = SLOW

Manuals = FAST and Torquey! :

You got that wrong. Automatics are a bit slower than 5 speeds. Autos are not slow.

Maybe Craig's car is slow.

my automatic was slow

I know our autos arent slow.

here is some math...

auto < manual transmission

simple as that.

- matt

SO is that what your leaning in HS?

after having both, this is true.

Having an additional 65-70hp & 2 extra gears helps too.

well that too

I have a '95 SE w/57k miles....

Let me rephrase what I said earlier.

Automagic Maxima's are slow compared to manuals. (Stock for stock at least, you can't deny it)

We a-magics are, however, faster than TONS of cars on the road. Either way the maxima is a sleeper.

To anyone who has ridden in a fairly stock automagic back to back with a fairly stock manual can back me up.

But with automatics you can cruise around and not have to worry about shifting all the time.

Ahh, how a dual transmission would be nice...

You will be proud of me.

yours. not mine.

Fine, I will just PM you fockers then.

We can tell gangstarr doesn't know anything about Maximas. Which Max has 240 HP?

Yea bro. And you know what really ****es me off ? Is most people are like this. They assume false **** and assume the Max is slow.

No respect, no respect.

Well, they'll feel the wrath when one pulls up next to em.

but how much fun are automagics to drive?
