i have just about evry bolt on :cat back ,high flow cat, y pipe , and short ram which other mods will make my car fast and where can i find them?

 

5 speed swap modd...

 

laylow you took the words right out of my mouth! lol

 

lol yea i know a 5 speed is what i need but the truth is i have an automatic and i just have to work with it anything else besides the swap?

 

u can get a valve body transcooler and spray some nitrous.

 

variable intake, ECU, headers, underdrive pulley, valvebody mod, nitrous, FI, bullet proof tranny, weight reduction....

 

Don't listen to the manual trans guys, they are just jealous because they know that we are going to be faster. Just wait.

 

i'm listening do tell...

 

NAWZZZZZZ

just ask jime

 

variable intake, ECU, headers, underdrive pulley, valvebody mod, nitrous, FI, bullet proof tranny, weight reduction....

Where can i find these for a good price????

 

any of you guys have any idea what diameter a stock exhaust pipe on a 1998 Maxima GXE is?

 

variable intake--mevi or oovi go to classified forum and go to 4th gen for sale items.

ecu-- jim wolf technology http://www.jimwolftechnology.com/

headers--cattman but maybe sold out try custom enterprise for the cattman they maybe sold out to just get a y-pipe or if you already have one don't worry about the 3-5 hp gains from the headers.

underdrive pulley-go to group deal forum and get the motostrom pulley

valve body--i forgot now the i have a manual i definatly forgot..

 

2.25"

10chars

 

VI ~ $500
ECu ~$500
Headers ~$700
Y-Pipe ~$200
UDP ~$80
Valve Body ~ . . . I dont know, I'm a manual too but seriously I dont remember a price but I'd guess atleast $300
Boost Atleast $3K
Nitrous: Dont know atleast $300
BUllet proof: not sure atleast $700

 

if you have the money just force yourself into the best of both worlds. Spray some nitrous, or go FI.. and then when you're auto tranny breaks.. which might not take too long.. you'll have the excuse to go manual.

 

hahahaha thats true, the tranny wont last that long once u do that.

 

aight thanks for the help guys

Put your stock intake back on for starters...

 

yea it seems ive lsot a lot of low end torque/hp is that due to the short ram?

 

I'm with Jime on this one... I don't know why or how yet, but I am!

 

manuals are jelous because us autos don't lose boost between shifts

 

next on your list should be 00vi and ECU or maybe a vavle body mod. you can throw in a UDP. and yea thats about all i can recall.

 

werd we could blow past them and and throw up the finger the same time lol jk

if i were you i would get the ecu

 

first and foremost make sure ur maintenance is straight....


oh btw, this is way off topic, but just curious didnt know where to post this, where do people be gettin them crazy sigs at? like the "attempting to give a damn" etc?? just wonderin, and bored

 

Autos also don't get the wayy cool BOV sound in between shifts. Vroooom, PSSSST!!!

In addition to what's been said, you can also get lightweight wheels (15lbs or less) and stickier tires.

 

yeh u can. just let off the gas before the tranny shifts or heck, shift it from 1,2, DRIVEEE

 

bout time we start loving our slushboxes in public!

 

been there done that.

Don't get a tranny cooler that is too big.

 

you will go through all that bs and get every single bolt on and tune and race a 5spd one day and lose to it theeeeeeeeeen you're going to do the swap that's what happened to me anyways now i'm stumping mother****ers all the time they have to stop me when i say no i don't have nitrous to check for themselves good luck

 

yeah...but personally...i love my auto tranny...not everything is about speed...

wait til u run into a sleeper civic that'll make u cry like someone shoved an onion up your nose.

 

I have over 300 runs at the track on my stock tranny. Still going strong.

 

Do like Jime. 3.5 swap and headers. The thing with the auto 3.0 is that at those power levels there really is a big difference between auto and 5-speed, but as you get more power, the auto slowly catches up and eventually passes the manual. You gotta run 12s or 11s to get there though.

Just look at auto 3.5's, they aren't much slower than the 6-speed 3.5, while the auto 3.0 is certainly a bunch slower than the manual with the same engine.

I'm sticking with the 5-speed though, I'm adicted to the gearing

 

 

All you little wieners who think a stick is vastly superior (in drag racing) have a lot to learn. For low horsepower engines a stick wastes less power(this applies to you little ricer boys). In high horepower vehicles (a la Jime) an auto will be better because it can be modified to shift gears in thousands of a second. Since drag racing is a race against time, the auto is superior (it wastes less time being disconnected form the engine). Our Maxima auto is a pretty slow shifter, but it can be tweaked to shift faster.

For other types of racing a stick is better.

And if you think an auto is a weak tranny, your dead wrong. Do some research before you embarras yourselves.

 

what is the bullet proof tranny? Sounds like something I want.

 

Ugh! Just like that stupid turbo'ed Honda that drives past my house now and then.

 

does anyone know if the jim wolf 3 mode trans comp upgrade is any good?

 

If you want to drive faster, sign up for some high performance Driver's Education classes put on by your local Porsche or BMW clubs. You will learn tons of correct technique, and have a ball doing it. You will be a much safer and confident driver, too.
