I hate Altimas. They're nothing but piece of shits. Nearly every ricer has one where I live. A modded out V6 Altima tried passing me up, even while leading off on a red light, and my Camaro kicked it's ass. That driver was pulling little bitch tantrums after: tailgating and even going to the extreme of driving on the opposite side of the street to go in front of me and about 8 other cars. It was total meltdown, I was laughing. Don't fuck with muscle cars!!
@G3TLOOSHemi Hmm, I see cars racing in a straight line in the video, now you want to talk sports cars. And I can name a few but I'll stay with the GN for the moment. In its last year the GNX version was putting out in excess of 300 hp, only the factory knew for sure but they dynoed close to 400hp. Those Buicks still rule to this day at the drag strips. And tweaked GNX's routinely run in the 8's.
I have a red g8 gt with tune, magnaflows, and RAM air. I get a semi when I see a Hemi, cause I always win, all day. Along with everything else. BTW, no "poor man" is buying a G8 GT. It's not a poor mans anything...
Car was not stock and is a lot more to begin with and was to be expected. That thing got it's ass handed to it by an LS1 camaro about 10 minutes before we raced so it's all relative.
@dsm2xtreme G8GXP mind you...its essentially a Camaro. That said, he doesn't have Bose and he used more fuel and polluted more than your Altima did. But hey, I have a soft spot for the Altima SE-R so I'm biased.
@pcfxer - Actually - In reply to the pollution comment - the G8 GT 6.0l v8 has a very low emissions rating - likely not more than the altima when being run at the same performance levels. The G8 GT does have a bose subwoofer amp and speaker system - (which is the majority of stock and modded G8s (GXP too expensive for what it is, v6 isn't as easy to modify) ) My boss owns the CTS - he lovingligly calls my G8 GT the batmobile.
@originalRADMAN In that case...my mind is made up ;). For some reason I thought the GTs came with a six cylinder. "Big" V-8s are easy to make power on.
I can't believe how he walked out on me from a stop. I am pushing ~290 and 3200 lbs. My brothers LS1 TA with full intake/exhaust doesnt run what that car did. Craziness...
like i told the guy at the bmw dealership the other day when i was picking up my dad who had to drop his car off..... the guy goes "hey that g8 is alright looking FOR AN AMERICAN CAR" i go... "sir, with all due respect, that AMERICAN car will blow the doors off of 90 % of the cars you have in this lot"
he kept on saying he wanted to take out a m3 against it, i just made sure he knew you could buy two of my g8's for one of his m3.... (got my car with 9000 miles for 23400)
Because GM didn't know how to market the car. It has nothing to do with how good/bad it is. I would suggest you or whoever do a litle research before shooting off an ignorant question.
The LSx engine is a world class engine pal, for more than 10 years, lol. The Vq35 can't hold a candle to these engines. A poor mans CTS-V still smokes almost anything on the road. Don't try to school me on this. I have smoke G35s, G37s, from a roll and dig. M35s, 350Z, no competition. Sorry.
@MoCitysFinest1 I have beaten G35's in my stock 2010 Altima, they really are not that fast, especially the earlier models. The VQ engine itself is a quality build. Try and 370z, they put 350z's to shame.
@MoCitysFinest1 in terms of power yea sure. but in terms of who has a better engine. a VQ35DE is a better engine. thats why it was voted in the 10 ten best engines in the world for 8 years in a row the only engine to do so.
And? What does that have to do with anything? You think I don't know this? I bought the car for the power and price, not the brand. Can't beat a 4 door grocery getter that runs like a scalded ape.
@degaik - I hear that the g8 is "just" a rebadged Holden in a lot of the forums. The motor and tranny is what makes the "holden" a finished package. GM having controlling interest of Holden - makes Holden as much a GM product as any of the other vehicles. When the G8 was retired (ala Pontiac being retired) The remaining stock of G8 fascia was sold as a special edition in Australia - and they continued production as it was so popular! Just my 2 cents. I love my Pontiac Holden G8 :p
I just have an intake/exhaust/tune on my 08 G8 GT and it runs 8.50's@84 in the 1/8th mile. There is a very good chance that this guy was either stock or just had an intake or something.
He was running low 8.70's at 83-84mph. Now that time alone is one thing, but in relation to what others run out there. New Mustang GT's run 8.9-9.3 depending on the mods. Challenger SRT 8's run 8.8-9.0 at the same 83 mph. Saw a 90's viper run 8.65 @ 86 out there so that sort of tells you that he is not stock.
I don't know if that car was stock or what, but I am wondering cause it was insane off the line. He was pulling this well modded 300C SRT8 off the line too so I would suspect rear gears?? He was running 8.50's out there which seems REALLY quick for a stocker.
i have an 08 GT g8, just tuned and the only car i have tried to mess with that beat me was my uncle in his z06. i have taken a 05 GTO pretty well, we were on the freeway and would slow up in the middle two lanes to about 20-30 and then go and i beat him every run (his car sounded way better though hhaha)
07 srt 8 charger no mods, my buddy brought his dad's whip out to "beat me" after he tried to in his 99 svt stang didnt have such luck
