My friend ran 14.2 at 98MPH in a BONE stock 6spd, witnessed it. Reason they are
slow from the factory ? ECU needs to be reset for optimum performance. I never
seen a EVO run anything lower than 14.6 around this part of the country, bone
stock that is. Yes I heard of people runing low 13s in them stock- but thats
with a launch that sooner or later is going to break something. Evo drive
train is not bullet proof, nor is the STis. Now the fastest NA Max runs low
13s- now I said NA. There are alot of TURBO Maximas out there, its something U
really don't wanna run. I have videos of 11 sec daily driven Maximas runing
cars like SS camaros w/NOS, huge T66 fed DSMs, T3/T4 SR20s, even the new
supercharged Cobras- and from a roll...... nothing beats a 500WHP stock
engine, stock injector, stock ECU, Max. People just don't realize what the VQ
engine can do.... AEBS claims that the VQ block is the new gen Supra block-
where it can withstand insane amounts of power. Yes its FWD, but like I
said... 30K bux for a new "Rally" car, or 10K for a used 00 SE 5spd Max throw
in bout 5K for an awesome turbo kit, and no "Rally" car with the harriest mods
will walk ya on the highway. I can afford an EVO, or a STI, but I know with MY
driving that car wouldn't last me more than a few months and something would
be broken- I abuse cars not drive em. My Maxima has lasted me a verrry long
time now, give me a free EVO or STI and I will turn around and sell it... not
a fan of em at all.
