I've been wondering this for a while too. But the 2.5s. I know the 3.5s will kill me, but what about the new 2.5 Maximas? That's all I see around here, I forgot there was even a 3.5. It's usually gangsters with 20s but sometimes I see a few with coffee can exhaust and I wonder....

I hope you're confusing the Maxima with the Altima.

This isn't even a close race...Maxima in a landslide  I don't care if the CSVT has a couple "mods" to it, that Maxima has 265 hp and even the ATX would crush us

I was just looking at maximas last night. 2004's weigh ~3400 lb., have a 3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve V6 engine with 265 hp @ 5,800 rpm and 255 lb-ft of torque @ 4,400 rpm, optional helical(?) LSD, 6 spd manual, HIDs... I think this would leave a CSVT in the dust and I think I want one.

I'm a firm believer in driver skill over horsepower (to a degree)...my buddy has a 03 Altima which i know is faster than my grand am...but he cant drive worth sh&t..so when we play at the "track" i almost always take him off the line and maintain a lead close to the end of third....my grand am used to run 15.4 all day long...now if his brother drives it..i'm taken off the line and at the end of the 1/4 am about a lil ova a car length behind...that teaches me to neva be intimidated by a cars "reported" horsepower..just like auto reviews they all get diff times..so many factors to be determined IMO
