I don't know.. I have a 92 NX 2000 (for the guy asking, see
www.se-r.net for cars using the sr20de engine, including the NX).
Mine has 142K miles on it, and although it feels quick and is very fun to drive, I think mine must be running like crap. I didn't have a stopwatch, but I just counted, and 0-60 was like 14 seconds!! Nothing is jumping out at me, other than it was cutting off until it warmed up, but I think I solved that with a EGR cleaning, new O2 sensor and throttle body cleaning. Since it is still on the original clutch, that might have something to do with it. :-)
So.. the answer is, you might be able to take him if it isn't running full steam, or if it is at least not in top notch shape.
Now.. as soon as I do my swap for a SR20DET, my little NX will be able to take the mighty Max any day.
