i apologize for the other supra owners but i give that maxima mad props for beating that supra!!

maximas are light so they can be quick...

i like maximas, almost got one.... VQ35 mm... nice engine

hey steve, thanks for showing me that vid..

 

 

I'm lost.. what vid..

 

Maxima's are really light and our engines are all aluminum (VQ, aluminum block and heads) so we have nice punch. The ONLY thing I hate about us is that we are FWD. Your supra will get so much farther on mods simply becuase of the drivetrain...the Maxima is a wolf in sheeps clothing.

BTW, almostki, I sent you a private message.

think that just about covers it all.... oh wait

Ferrari 550 maranello mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

*denotes vehicles i currently own

2 down 5 to go

 

haha i feel the same way man, i want a R34 GTR

no problems with traction with that RB26DETT.. thats a dream

 

yea that would be sweet... but not worth the money they want what 80-90k to motorex one over here? no way! think what you could do to your supra or the vette with that much cash... a stock z06 fully loaded is 52ish so like you have almost 30k to play with!!!!!

 

true.. but the vette u get a chevy interior i dont like vettes but thats my opinion, i like the idea of getting more power out of smaller engines(RB26dett, 2.6L revs to 8k rpms for an inline-6)
i would pay 80k for a skyline, no doubt.

 

A Porche 996 TT for me please, or was that a Ferrari 360? Decisions, decisions.

 

Sx7r OWNS hahaha...

 

wanna trade supra for my max

 

actually the z06 gets a RECARO interior the whole thing was designed and handcrafted by them in each one... only vette i would ever buy.... hell the ONLY CHEVY!!!

as far as engines.... i like big and small... my truck has a mustang 302 with a hot cam and some other fun stuff... pushing 350 or so easy... lets just say i can light up my 35" tires and still beat down on most normal cars! hehe

and my bro has a sister truck with a 351m/400 pushing close to 450/550 and on his 33" will give my car a good run... i still win but he is only like a car length or so behind... and i am running about 14.9-15.0 or so....

then my bro's roommate just bought a wrx and we have having fun modding the **** out of that... and my 3.0 v6 is fun too but not many upgrades that don't include FI i prefer NA power... to me it is more real... though i still love turbo and S/C and i might do a custom one for my bro's truck... that would be INSANE we are thinking 750/900 should be easy! hehehe!!!

 

can i have your supra?

 

Tell me about it! He ran a 10 in the quarter mile in that thing! Simply amazing...

 

Damn thats a phat supra, guy!

 

wow....10 seconds....

 

screw your supra.. let me get your accord

just kidding

 

Damn what does SX7R have done to his car?

 

same thing i have done to mine

 

No turbo, right?

 

Here is another one to add to the mix

 

i have no pics so i have no turbo

no he only has 100 shot

 

Sorry Craig. But maximas are NOT particularly light, the aluminum block/heads have nothing to do w/ the power and there are FWDs in the 12's, 11's, 10's, 9's. Although rwd would be better, WEIGHT is a drag racer's greatest enemy.

 

Well we are roughly 400 pounds lighter then supra's jeffrey

<--- That is cute

 

i heard the bouncy rear supension saves some weight too.

 

Well you didn't say maximas are LIGHTER. You just said they were light. When in fact they are not.

Of course no comment on the rest
