Thread: 04 gtp vs maxima 3.5

this happend a few weeks ago but i figured i would post. ive been dieing to run one of these for a while cause stock they are pretty comparable. but i had a few goodies on him. intake and i just re gaped my plugs (had them wrong) and it was running a little stronger. from a rolling punch at about 10 or 15 my front bumper was about at his back tire and i gave him the hit. instantly i started pulling like nothing. gotta love torque from the roots style. and i gotta say there intakes sound pretty mean at full throttle. anyways i pull up even with him (1 car lenght) and contuie to put my back bumper almost at his front bumper just in first (1.75-2 car lenghts) then went into second and contuied to pull. shut down around 70 with me a full 2 car lenghts out. so pretty much that is 3 car lenghts from 10-70 with me giving him the hit. i was very impressed to say the least. now i just gotta find one of the new ones cause they have like 280bhp

haha thanks and we pretty much have the same mods except i dont have the t-stat so that should give you a good comparison

try run the altima ser there pretty quick one pulled me bye a fender

nice kill , yeah those altimas ser a pretty bad

i dident even know they had an ser. ill deff be on the look out tho!!

okay i just checked them out 260hp (10 more than stock) and a 6-speed. i think that would be a pretty good race.

yeah a while back a buddy of mine when he had his gtp slightly modded he raced a altima se-r ,but the guy in the altima told us it was a nismo edition i didnt know wut that meant not a nissan fan but looked it up comes with performance exhaust an air intakes an a few other things so yeah it moved bad

Good kill Blow.

Go get you a

Nismo Edition is all cosmetic the performance stays the same.
I.e: Exhaust "tips", front/rear lip... Things like that.
The Se-r's are pretty quick.
Should be a even race.

yea its like nissans performance thing. like a saleen for a mustang. i would think with intake and exhaust it would ride out pretty well tho. they seem like pretty healthy breathing cars to began with and put an intake and exhaust on that thing that motor is scraming

WRONG SVT is fords performance department not Saleen. Steve Saleen just uses ford bodies and adds his own stuff.

Kind of like Roush.... look at the Mach 1 (well the previous gen Stangs). Quite a few Roush parts in them.

the one i raced had exuast and cai it really only helped out on the top end thow

yea well thats were those motors really shine anyways. top end. and with a good intake and full exhaust with problew some suspension i figure it would roll out pretty well..plus the 6 speed to keep it in the power band..

Nice kill on the Maxi... did the autolite 104's really help (guessing with KR)? the only other mod I have different from yours is mufflers replaced with thrust 25 in glasspacks oh and the manual fan switch (really helps in traffic)

they gave it a little more pep. i dont know about with kr, i dont have a scanner

The pep you saw was prob. the result of lowered KR.... dont feel bad, I dont have a scanner either

i ran an altama the other day and well either the first one sucked or he was moded cause again i gave him the jump but only pulled half a car in first, had to switch to his lane (i started half a car up) then he pulled back just a little bit then by 80 i started to pull away and by 95 i might have had a car on him. it looked brand spankin new tho, maybe it was the newer ones with more power. the intake noise sounded the same and all, so either they both had intakes or they just sound mean as hell stock. either way it was a lot faster than the first one.

and i thought nismo would have atleast been cool and made it faster ??? i guess cool lookin cars sell better idk
