Recently i went for some fun runs in mexico

i have an 04 nissan maxima

i ran a few friends and i have this issue

i pull on them slowly inching away say from a 40 roll

but as soon as i hit say 100 in 4th they start catching back upto me not just the same guy but a few cars in general .. i will be beating them and in 4th it just dies ..

i just ordered the pre cats
my mods so far

racing line y pipe
Ported Elbow
Exhaust
Basic cheapo Short ram air intake
NWP block off plate
NWP im spacers
1 step colder plugs ( ill be on nitrous soon )

 

04 SL = 4AT? What tranny do you have?

I think the general public would rather you play on the track or dyno ...

 

it was 4 am in the morning in an empty road in mexico

i never run in a busy road

it was empty as they caught upto me you can see i breaked cause i saw a car

i stop a good distance before i see any cars

its a 5AT

both the other cars were modded specially the si and wanted to see how i would do since i just recently fixed my knock sensor

 

5AT isn't very good @ ~ 100 MPH, flat/dead spot/low RPM.

 

you think its possible a underdrive crank pulley would help ?

i already bought one and plan on putting it on with the pre cats

also could it be because my cats might be clogged ? .. i have a clogged cats light and im at a 120,000 miles ( i drive alot lol )

 

.

I'd say an extended rev limiter and supporting mods. And if you do have any question, hit up a dyno.

 

4th gear = overdrive gear. If you want acceleration in 4th gear, go get a Corvette or any other LS1 powered vehicle.

 

The red line represents the 5AT from 3rd to 4th. Not very good in that speed range.

 

Nice VID but

 

ah yes extended rev limiter .. thank you so much .. idk why that didn't come to my mind

how do i go by getting a extended rev limiter for an 04 maxima ?

i read someone having it for 7100 and it working pretty well

 

what vid
my questions have been answered thanks alot NMEmax

 

You the man! NMEmax is a plethora of knowledge.
