John M Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 ECU mods on a NA car don't do squat. That'd be the least of your worries. You've got only a little more power than he does but you can put it down better and make usable power (and torque) over a wider rpm range. I hate doing things like that on the street though. I prefer the track where you have printed proof of who won and by how much. That way it isn't up to "interpretation" later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 924 turbo and John M - Thank you both for the education. Now I understand why all I'm seeing is ECU-stuff paired with forced-induction "swaps/kits" on the Nissans. Similarly, it also explains why there's mention only of raised rev-limits and speed cut-outs. -A PS: Agreed w/John M on strip vs. street. Hey, after all, it's for a steak!

Kaptan Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 As previously stated ECU mods are worthless on the Altima. Here is the fastest timeslip for a 3rd gen altima (SE-R's included) on www.nissanclub.net (largest altima forum). It was an 03. Here is the info on the run. FYI, The guy who pulled this time is supposed to be a great driver. 2003 Nissan Altima 3.5SE ALL MOTOR Best ET: 13.62@102.9 with a 2.15 60 ft Run made at Sacramento Raceway 3/5/03 Engine mods: Stillen intake with custom midpipe Stillen crank pulley Stillen y pipe Apex N1 style y pipe back single exhuast Custom ground kit Suspension: STOCK Transmission: STOCK Tires: STOCK 21555R17's Weight removal: rear seats, front pass. seat, spare tire--85lbs Race weight: 3005#'s plus 180# driver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mblock66 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I hate all that taking out seats and stuff. I like to know what the car does for what it is. Ya know. I understand why people do it but once it is back in on the street you ain't running that same time you are bragging about haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 I am glad I posted this thread! I am still planning on racing him even on his terms (best 2 out of 3) Yes the vehicle does have a Stillen header back system (being a clever marketing guy, he initially told me it was a cat-back, Until I looked under his hood @ lunch and noticed it;) There will be no weight removal other than spare tire! Remember I am a non-limited 5EAT so my weight should be very close to his. (if indeed his weight is 3200-3300) There is a very rural 1 1/2 - 2 mile stretch of divided 4 lane road we will be running this on, we will have witnesses! I will try and have someone video. I guess it boils down to finding out if the 5EAT can be a 13.5 sec car;) Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaptan Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I guess it boils down to finding out if the 5EAT can be a 13.5 sec car;) It's not, but neither is that SE-R so it should be a good race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mblock66 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 It's not, but neither is that SE-R so it should be a good race. I bet it is! Get a good torque break launch and I bet you will have him no prob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eles1 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Do you know how good his driving skills are? If he's good at launching/shifting, this could be real close. If not, you own him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoa91 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Odds are 5-4 For the Legacy, just my opinion. Good Luck and represent for the subies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o- c-uTe Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 I have read a report that the Altima ser does a 0-100 in 14 something stock. That Altima is a very fast car when it is fixes up. I'm sorry but I would have to put my money on the Altima. I love lgt and I hope you kick his a**. Good Luck and represent the Legacy GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prod Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Sounds like a fun race. The 0-100 race shouldn't be a problem, just get a good launch. As far as the others, it's going to be close, just go for it and represent our Subies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tronix Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 From a roll.. he may edge you. from a standstill I think you'll take him. It will be much closer than most are giving credit for though .the wagon is like racing a sedan with a 250lb guy in the passenger seat.. hopefully its a cool day. I'd love to see it. -Tronix(wh0mp)GT for more pics and info... http://angevine.org/legacy/legacy.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 I'm going to cheat here a little, I am going to be driving my fathers 04 350z track model in the morning. He needs my car for carrying a few things;) The Z has to be quicker than a Altima, plus the Z should launch a whole lot better being RWD! The 350Z Track has 287HP, but I am sure it will weigh less than the Altima:) Rev limiter here I come Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthedeck Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 BOOOO!!!! Take the Wagon! TAKE THE WAGON!!!!! In any case...don't be too nervous, otherwise, you will lose. Oh, and watch out for the po-po! Later, i. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 Oh I am not nervous in the least, Before posting this thread I thought I would blow him out of the water! (thats why I laughed at him) I wanted to drive the Z anyway as I have not driven it since going to Stage II. At Stage I the cars felt about equal up to 80-90. By the way, I am not looking forward to the Kidney Jarring ride & Mega blindspots;) I do wish I had the track models brake package on the Leggy Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!!

rallispec Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 you at least need to do a follow up race in the wagon -- i'm really curious how the two car's compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melayout Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 D00d, major letdown but I won't hold it against it if you send me your UP,DP & AP, since you obviously have no use for them. On second thought, avoid the street and race at a drag strip, plus you've got 2 weeks to plan for it. I keed I keeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 I am not racing the Altima with the Z..... no way! I will only be in the office a half day on friday as I am going on vacation for 2 weeks (YAHOOOOOOO) Just driving the Z to work & lunch. I have not made my mind up yet if I should order & install the Perrin Int & TMIC before the race, maybe........ Even if I do purchase them I most likely will not install them before the race, I believe I will trounce him as is:) Goodnight All Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!!

PhilT Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 If it's any comparison, my stock LGT pulls away every time from a friends stock Maxima no matter how hard he tries. And he tries every chance he gets, and always has an excuse why he loses Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 I drove the Z in this morning 6MT....:lol: I will be trying to increase the wager today! The main reason why I wanted to drive this car, was to see what kind of speed I it would carry over the same stretches of street I drive every day. One stretch is after coming off an off ramp 35-40 and accelerating to around 80-85....No contest. A Z maybe a good race for a Stage I Leggy but no contest for Stage II. I am usually in the 80-85mph range this morning the best I could get was 75!(with the Z) Next the entrance to my office community is very straight 1/8-1/4 stretch of road (remember I come into work around 3:30-4:00am so the roads are DEAD) I really launched the Z hard from a stop (4k drop) Car hooked up quite well (much better than a FWD sedan will) it was even more of a difference with the amount of speed I was carrying. The grocery getter carries just over 10mph more in the same stretch, that is at a 2k launch in the Leggy:lol: I will say this, when you hit the Brembo's hard on the Z it is like you are caught in a web! One more thing the only mods on the Z is a Stillen Catback (it does sound good) The Z currently has just under 7k on the ODO The victim will be coming in at 9.....I will be requsting more than just Dinner for two @ Berns & some form of humiliation!
