2002 Maxima SE 0-60 times?
I just bought a new 2002 Maxima SE. Unfortunatley for me my wife can't drive stick shift, so I got the automatic. I can't believe how fast and smooth this car is. My other car is a 330 horsepower Pontiac Firehawk, so I know when a car has power. I was wondering if anyone knows what the 0-60 times are for the Maxima SE with the auto tranny. I know the commercial used to show 0-60 in 6.4 seconds. Thanks in advance.

I got a 6.46 0-60 using a gtech pro. But I have a six speed and I can't drive worth a sh**

...You should really only do this if you have an 02, with the gated shifter, because it has all the gears laid out 1-2-3-D so you can row through them with the 'slushbox' instead of the clutch, but at least it gives you a little more control as to when the car shifts. I think 6.6 0-60 is definitely attainable with a little practice.

Because it is very difficult to get from 1st to second, start in 2nd gear, and shift to 3rd and OD. Will this hurt the tranny? It just seems when you manually shift, it really does ni get to the next gear until the trans itself is ready to.

As for the 0-60 time, that commercial sounds right on. At the track, I consistently run about 15 flat which roughly equates to about a mid-6 0-60 time.

I did 1 run with my G-Tech and got a 14.97 quarter mile... I really don't remember my 0 to 60 time. I think it was in the mid 6's. I think with more runs and cooler weather (I live in deep South Texas..HOT!), I could improve those numbers a little.

I just did a search on my old thread... my correct quarter mile time was 14.99 and my 0 to 60 was 6.4 in my '02 Auto.

On manually shifting the 2002 auto, what do you guys think of this:
Because it is very difficult to get from 1st to second, start in 2nd gear, and shift to 3rd and OD. Will this hurt the tranny? It just seems when you manually shift, it really does ni get to the next gear until the trans itself is ready to.

I've found that for whatever reason (even under full throttle) the tranny shortchanges 1st and shifts into 2nd very early. If left alone (like in "D" or "3") the tranny will shift 2 -> 3 much better (closer to redline) than it will 1 -> 2.
Just be sure to give it a few 100 RPMs or you will hit the rev limiter.
