Tonight at an undisclosed location I had I run in with i think its "bijan gxe" or something like that. He has a 99 Maxima V6 5 speed with bolt ons and he "doesnt have spray." ;)

Well he didnt want to go from a dig so we went from like a 50 kick. Which isnt an awd turbo cars forte but hey.


My clutch slips on the highway for some reason, the higher the gear the more it slips. And I had a MBC on tonight at 10 pounds. I can run 20-21 max but its been to hot so I said fuck it and leave it on 10 until I can get it tuned for more down here. These aren't excuses this is just background.

So we line up twice and are pretty much dead even both times. He got the jump once and I got the jump once. I would say thats pretty even.

Anyway we both pulled about a half to one length on each other.

So all in all it was a close race. I was very impressed by the Maxima.

At 20 psi the car made 330s (before cams)so I must be making 250-260 whp probably at 10 psi so I dont know what the Maxima is putting down but probably about that or less since my car is heavier.

Good run man. Respect.

Which one? I know there is one in Northpoint and I stop by Buford and Pleasant Hill sometimes. I'll come out there pretty soon. I just need a tune down here to get my car up to spec boost again. Well and it needs to get colder.

Good thing I went to get my car. Otherward I would have gotten a verbal warning!

Also, do you have the videos?!

I think I saw the Galant running around tonight, (I was in the 69' Camaro at the QT light).

I was also there for the SE-R vs CRX match, which was entertaining to say the least.

When the galant is up to 20 pounds it is.

Yea that was some fun stuff.

It was pretty much my first time doing any good running.

I wouldn't say that.

They were all good races that were pretty close.

I'll post the hwy run later today, or you have time you can post it. I can't believe how bad my plugs melted, pieces of it broke off. I put some new plugs in it & it's still not running right, it's seems like it's misfiring but it's still drivable

Yea, looking at those plugs amazed me. They were completely gone. Did you ever really figure out that happened?

So out of the the vr4 - se-r - and auxillaries car(wrx?), the vr4 is the quickest? When its at its best?

HalfBaked

Auxiliarys WRX is back to stock.

I've never ran the GVR4, but I'd assume that when it is running 20psi it'd most definately be faster then the se-r.

Right now I'm just running 7lbs.

As soon as my clutch stops slipping I will be getting it tuned at Batlground and run 12 or 13 lbs daily.

LIES.....

I took off on him twice...he couldnt catch me - either A) severe clutch slipping or B) he wasnt pushing it or C) ??

Im more than willing to go from a dig next time...just gota find the right spot.
Your BOV made my left ear go deaf.

Good run man. Respect.

Stock maxima's don't make anything close to that kind of whp. I had a 97 5 speed, with CAI, Y-pipe and Exhaust and those mods usually only add up to like 180-190 whp, maybe 210 wtq.

this is a stock 4th gen Maxima dyno.

I can't remember for sure if Bijan said he had a y-pipe or not, but they add quite a bit of pep for a bolt on.

I dont know where you think I'm trash talking and its not like you pulled buses on me or something, its was a slow race.

My car has been a turd the past few weeks so I mean its not like you beat anything thats balls fast or something.

I shouldnt have run you because I guess you have a bad image of how my car runs. You wanted to run it for what it was then and you got to.

So whats the deal?

I dunno where youre talking either, I said 2 random ass people have come up to me saying I got beat, which isnt a big deal...we just gota run right.

I know I didnt pull buses, I was trying to roll from 40mph or so...like I said at the traffic light before we got on the other road.

Turn your boost up, get a clutch, whatever....I'll run from a dig


Dont think Im angry or anything :lmfao:- Goin to Barrett tonight?
