Latest kills...

On my Stock Coupe:

Raced on Arvida PArkway (Weston) at 2:30 am in the morning from 0 to 110 vs a Sentra ty- R or SR or something and a Lexus GS 300. Beat the lexus by 3 cars and the other one by 2. was a tought race, but after 70 miles I owned, I had a really bad start I started 2 seconds after them and they took advantage on me.

Great kill, those Type R seem to be pretty fast for a Nissan.

When did Nissan not have fast cars? Did I miss a memo?

It was from 1982 to 1988. LOL
Nissan had no fast cars before 1969 either.
Consider yourself informed!

Yeah, I hear that Skyline is a real pig.

OK, they went through their off years, but the new cars do show promise.

If you gave a Sentra SE-R, especially a Spec V, a two second head start, you would never see anything but its taillights. It is over 700 lbs lighter, andthe Sentra SE-R's Quarter mile times are .3 to .4 second quicker than a six speed coupe.

Excuse my ignorance guys, but last time I drove a Nissan car, it was in Mexico, a Nissan Hykari, 2 dr, 4 cyl, nice but not exactly lightning fast. Back then at the begining of the 90's Chrysler Shadow was a quick car, it had a turbocharged 2.2 lt, 4 cyl engine, the car could do 0-60 mph in 7 sec, I could scratch tires 1st and 2nd gear, all the way to about 55 mph, that was pretty good for a 4 cyl.

I need to check that Sentra SE-R

It was a Sentra Type SE-R, after we went to a friends house and checked it out, it had 2000 miles, really nice car for a nissan, stick shift..

Sentra SE-R

The mags always love the Sentra's SE-R, but better yet is the 3.5 liter V6.

That is the Nissan motor that seems to always be one of Ward's top 10 motors.

It is available in the Altima, Maxima, G35 Infinity and the new Z-car. 270 or so HP, not bad.

Also, the Infinity G35 (auto) just bounced the 330i off the throne, .... too bad BMW.
