First off, this will get locked soon. Second, what model celica, and by "those turbo neons", I'm assuming you mean the SRT-4's, and also, a modded maxima would obviously do better than a stock maxima... be more specific.

in before the lock

anyways, it's faster than the celica, slower than the evo and srt-4 by a long shot. With a Ypipe it's still the same thing, faster than the celica, slower than the evo and srt-4 by a long shot.

well think of it this way..
the srt-4 is the fastest fwd production car
the max with a y-pipe is no where near the srt-4 or evo

how about putting a 00vi and y pipe on?
besides the above options, the only thing left is FI, i guess for good power boosts.

don't worry about it. You don't own a 285HP, all wheel drive, ralley car gone street... (evo > SRT-4)

well if you are trying to understand what I meant here is in simple:
if stock it won't hold up at all.
if heavely moddified it will hold up really well, and even beat most of them...

I wasn't being a A** or anything. I was being honest.
Srts will always be faster (their 2nd gear is very good)
Evo don't know
I believe the low end power we make won't matter the slightest agains these two cars. they are in over all faster cars. then again, I'm talking out of my A**

if you go to the time slips section you will find some 00VI cars at the track and you can see how fast they run... which is close to that these cars make (even better I think)
then again... you will need the all mighty VLSD

You aren't going to hang with an EVO or SRT-4 without full boltons basically. A mod or two isn't going to cut it, end of story. You will need at least Ypipe, ECU, and VI to have a prayer, and that is only if you are racing like, the worst SRT-4 or EVO driver in history. Bad SRT-4 or Evo driver would be in the low 14s, good maxima driver with most boltons will likely be in the low 14s.

You don't have a chance unless you spend some significant money.

SRT 4 are FAST but i was able to keep up with my CAI, Y pipe, and exhaust system. ON the starts they will be ahead of you, but usually around 3rd gear the max pulls hard and on the highway i was head to head we raced for about an hour in the Montreal area on the highway. Dont bother with the other cars u listed hehe there not worth your gas $$$$ LOL

what is this crap? they aren't in the same league. it's not that hard to realize how they would compare. experiences aren't necessary, numbers should be enough. a rally-bred car with racing background versus a 4-door family sedan... on any normal day, not gonna happen.

Stop with the retarded questions. Do some research for yourself instead of starting a ridiculous thread.

no dude. no max without FI is going to beat an SRT or an Evo. those cars are WAY faster.

youre talking 285hp all wheel vs 190 at the crank. with an 00vi and a ypipe youll pull like 180hp max.

do the math. the evo has close to 100hp more. no matter how you spin that, you theres no chance you can hang with it.

as for the srt4's.. as much as i hate to admit it, those cars are D4MN fast. even stock an NA max doesnt have a chance.


now if we start talking about a turbo'd max with over 350hp.. now its a differant story.
