VQ35DE 1/8th Mile Times

[02 SunliTMaxima]

Hey the closes thing down where i am is the 1/8th mile track in savannah GA - unless i want to drive 4 hours from college to Atlanta for the 1/4 anyways my times for my completely stock 2002 maxima, except for the Injen Cold Air Intake <-- was a

9.56 @ 75mph
2.2 60ft time

60ft time could be better i think because you have to roll through a water pit and the way the track is you cant go around it ..

so anyways, is this a good time for an almost stock vq35de? and what would this equate to in the 1/4 about?

i thought it was pretty fun cause i hustled this GT out of 20 bucks because i purposefully ran a 10.3 against a gaylude ( who turned his hazards on when he "won" " and then i ran my 9.56 against the GT... i still like the streets better though

sounds like a great run to me stock. im guessing you would have done a 14.7 or 14.8 at 95 mph in a full 1/4 mph. some of the track specialists will be around sooner or later to figure that one out..

hey great run by the way and way to take down a stang !

14.7-14.8 @ 92-94 for an auto

Subaru WRX-------------------------5spd or auto?
03 Mustang GT ( 5spd )--------------not possible unless the guy couldnt drive worth sh!t
E36 M3------------------------------5spd or auto?
3.5 Altima---------------------------5spd or auto?
Acura TL-S--------------------------cool kill
Nissan 350z-------------------------5spd or auto?
Auto Camaro Z28 ( LT1 )------------interesting kill

- all of those kills were from a stop when i had my cut out installed before the cat which elimanted and was equivalent for the need of a catback/ypipe/muffler or race cat. This was on the street at a place that we race at and its equivalent to an 1/8th about - im getting all those races uploaded soon so you can see them soon.

WRX was a 5spd - and he knows how to launch well - he has a chip and an intake i pulled about a nose on him you would be surprised w/ the torque of the 3.5 - he only got me about a nose or so off the launch

03 Mustang GT - he was a 5 spd and he had been talking mad crap to my buddies LS1 all night but he had just gotten a new clutch and hadnt put the proper mileage on it he had upgraded exhaust, not to much done, and pulleys. i dont see why this wouldnt be a possible kill, i beat one in the 1/8 and he was a 5spd .. anyways he spun in first a little but i spun 1st like hell with this f4g wheel drive but i beat him by like 1.5 cars - we got that on tape

E36 M3 - im not sure what he had he was on the highway and we went from about a 60-100 mph roll, it was a black e36 and i had him by a good 1/2 a car - and also i beat my friends from a dig he has a stock boston green one

3.5 Altima - was a 5spd with intake and exhaust, im pretty sure he didnt know how to drive - this was from a dig

Acura TL-S -

350z - was an auto with a CAI

97ish Camaro z28 w/ LT1 engine - this thing was a peice .. i mean it didnt look bad but it was a crappy auto LT1 with no mods i dont think, i beat him so bad it was funny


^all the above on tape soon

and i REALLY have my doubts that an e36 240 hp car can run 13's in the 1/4 mile there is no way possible, neither can the mustang GT with 5 hp over us and not much torque - and the 350z ---> low 14's

Anyways im going to the 1/4 soon - with 100 shot of nitrous and slicks - which have been ordered so ill be in the 13's too

why rolleyes???


its a fact those cars can all do 13s with a manual.

whether or not people you have seen can drive is another story.

BTW ive heard of stock E36s dynoing 217 at the wheels...........so 240 is not what it actually is.

[02 SunliTMaxima]

yesi know that 240 is at the crank but with a stick they arent going to be hitting 13's STOCK unless the guy races profuel dragracing for a career, you might as well tell me that the 3.5 maxima can hit 13's stock with a stick... even though its fwd it has like 14 hp at the wheels over the m3

[Dave B]

Things like RWD, higher torque, and "power under the curve" is why the 99+ Mustang GT will own a 6 speed Maxima. 15hp isn't much, but factor in the extra 40rwtq and you'll see why the GT owns. I've beaten quite a few 99+ Mustangs at the track, but that sure as hell doesn't mean my Maxima is quicker. No way. Put me in that 99+ GT (auto or stick) and I'll own any stock Maxima of any generation.

As for the auto LT1 being crap, I take offence I use to own a 94 AUTO LT1. With just a catback it went 13.9@99mph. With intake, chip, modified MAF, and Y-pipe it went 13.4s@103mph. If I would have replaced the crap 2.73 gears with 3.42s, added a higher stall torque converter, and drag tires it would have been a 12-second car. Just because it's a auto, doesn't mean it's slow. When you've got a mountain of torque, having an auto or manual really doesn't matter in the 1/4 mile. The quickest (1/4 mile racers) F-Bodies are autos and the fastest (highway 110+mph) F-Bodies are 6 speeds.

yes i know LT1's are easily modified this was bonestock except for exhaust and i creamed it, maybe it was in poor condition - but i am a huge LS1 fan since my friend has a procharged 11 second trans-am... anyways video's soon
