that maxima story reminded me of a race I had w/ a 96 or so about a month ago. I was headed to one of my buddy's houses to take him home about 2am one night when I pulled to this 95-97 maxima at a light. He had all these stickers, some gauges and exhaust, plus a couple of friends. While we sat at this light waiting for it to turn green, I could tell he was eyeing me to race, but I didn't think it was worth it. Well the light turned and curiousity got the better of me so after waiting to see if he'd take off(and he did) I followed suit. I'd say he had about a ca length and a half when I launched, well it wasn't very spectacular. About the end of second thru the start of third, i pulled in on him hard and was wrapping out third fixing to pass and lose him when I saw a cop leaving a neighborhood street in front of us(i think we were about 60 mph). Knowing I had him beat, I just braked, slowed and turned off(not wanting to get a ticketed). He on the other hand still thought we were racing or just didn't see the cop and sped off. I never saw what happened after that, but needless to say I wasn't very impressed. This was when the FC was still NA and with 125K-130K no mods and the engine blew on me at 137K. Like I said I wasn't very impressed. Anyway just thought I'd share. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

well they are slow, but good job, u still wasted him with no mods too. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Personally, I think he was dumb to race with that many people in his car. I also think all his "mods" weren't worth the effort he took putting on his car..LOL

coffee can exhaust...

extra horsepower stickers

aftermarket gauges.... to see how much horsepower he didn't have...

Well, maybe I wasn't too honest. I did remove my three cats in exchange for a hi-flow cat. I also removed my stock airbox. How much difference could that have possibly made?



By the way if u couldn't tell I'm trying to get my posts up:)
