your left leg is going to be huge.

 

Go for it, just stay out of rush hour traffic.

 

wow I love it.

 

dam that looks hot, a stock looking maxima keeping up with a drag car

 

hey mardi i sent you an email through the forums since im not a member yet and can't pm. just letting you know incase you didn't check it often or something. might help you with your clutch problems if you haven't already come to a decision/way to fix it.



oh ill donate someday... maybe when i find a better job... all my money goes to rent for now. stupid college....

 

How go things, Mardi?

 

Great and you?

Smart@$$
Nice video Now where are the low 11 sec. runs?

 

Hah that video was sweet. I especially liked the first part where the announcer was talking about your car! The only thing I ever heard an announcer say about my car was "I think this guy brought his grandma's Maxima to the track" lol.

 

sweet vid dude, me likey, you get that clutch thing worked out? what did you end up going with or did i miss that further up?

 

sweet videos but one question we all are wondering but afraid to ask...when are you going to beat your old personal best of 11.50?

 

Waiting on a clutch. Corey at www.RedlineMax.com is working on a sponsorship for me. They can make a one off Max Extreme PP with 3200lbs of pressure that is good to 667ftlbs at the crank, that should do the trick. Im doing the braided clutch line and a new clutch slave cylinder to help with the extra high pressure.

My next target track event is Import VS Domestic at MIR on November 6th.

 

Yes, I can't wait for that vid.

 

Good luck Mardi!

 

If you dont mind me asking, how much would that cost someone who wanted to try to follow in your footsteps?

 

i try downloading the video, but it said error downloading, i could only get audio and no video!! i wish it was the other way around..

 

Download and install FFDShow.

Hard luck...

The compressor blades on my 60-1 are trashed, they have one big chip and a few little ones, that might explain a few things!

Soooo I found a used T66

The ACT Max Xtreme Clutch kit is on its way too! Thanks RedlineMax.com

 

O-M-G..

 

Yeah that about sums it up...

 

Nice, that might explain the lower than expected trap speeds/et's.

 

What do you think we can expect with the T66?

 

T-66, the terminator

 

is that a ball bearing turbo?

 

What are the specs on the T66 you got?

 

well, its a T66 compressor P trim I will put my .82 hot side on it. non BB,

I picked it up from a supra owner who dynoed 600whp wih it. Its comming with the .69 housing aon if its too laggy I might go with that.

 

How soon is it going on?

 

Wow.....................

I've just spent a good 30 minutes reading all 17 pages of this forum post and loved every minute of it. How could I not know that this sick a$$ maxima existed?

All i can say is..... wow.....

I cannot wait to see what kind of times you will run with a new clutch, slicks, and a the new T66.

One question..... Through all the pages of reading; I didn't notice any mention of an LSD. I'm assuming you have an LSD tranny or some kind of LSD to help with traction right? If you don't have an LSD, why not?

 

yeah...cryoed gears too. matts got everything on this car. he is to the 4th gen maxima what joe montana is to football. well...maybe not joe montana but at least jake plummer!

 

I think he has a Quaife (best diffy available for our cars).

 

only bad thing is it isn't a production diff. anymore.

 

I thought LSD's don't do anything for off the line traction

 

if you run slicks an LSD is not as important

 

An LSD on a low hp BPU NA maxima with slicks is not important because one slick is all you need anyway. With really high HP the LSD is a must so both slicks can hold the power evenly.

 

So I'm assuming you have the Quaife LSD since you're gonna be making around 500+ fwhp with your max.

 

I'll gladly be your parts b!tch for the day!

Seriously though, if you ever want a hand doing any work on your car, PM me. I'll gladly help out for free just to see what you've done to your VQ!

 

have Quaife.

Oh ****, I got your PM, will call you soon GB

 

i'd like to say that i just read all 17.5 pgs of this and it was one of the best if not the best thread i've ever read on here. i learned more just reading this stuff than anywhere else. good luck to mardi and its awesome to see this kind of stuff going forward with the VQ and the maxima! makes me wish i had the money and experience to do it myself
