04 Nissan 350Z vs 01 Nissan Maxima GXE Turbo at NPR

[BmoreGT]

Love how people are bashing the Z. Its stock and still runs fairly close to the TURBO maxima. Put a turbo in the Z and watch it run low 12s/ high 11s compared to that tin can sedan.

[01maximaSE]

same company, both powerful, and both enjoyable... maximas are sport sedans, 350s are coupes.

[SatanicAngelofWAR]

well i have n 2000 maxima 5spd with cai and i shit on Z's and i have a 3.0 lol

[02max245]

Sure u do. And i have a GTR

[02max245]

Moe5193 shut the fuck up they are made by the same company and the z is a fucking coupe. Its was made to be fast. A maxima is quick for a sedan and will beat many cars stock. The z is obvious quicker stock for stock but if u put a vq35 in a 4th gen max it would rip you. And put a turbo in it and it runs 11's and low 12's thats how it is done.

[02max245]

No 350z's have the same engines with different inernals and stock performance parts. A 350z will rip any stock maxima. And maxima's rip hard, they are one of the fastest sedan's out for 30,000

[planeman223]

If you think that a stock Z will "rip" a stock maxima you obviously have never raced one.

[02max245]

Ur right but if u think a z is slower than a maxima then u obviously dont know shit.

[Tgrovez]

"moe5193" maximas don't look like shit.. you look like shit! So just shut the fuck up and quit talkin!!

[nmunmnm]

nice dude! runnin thirteens!!

[planeman223]

There is about 250 pounds difference in weight. And actually if you knew anything you would know that RWD cars lose much more power transferring it to the wheels... Will you just shut up already.

[moe5193]

RWD is much better than FWD...pushing is better than pulling im not going to argue anymore i dnt even own a z but i jus dnt like wen ppl tlk out thier ass and btw 250 is a lot if u know anything about cars

[02max245]

He is right RWD is better than FWD and AWD is the best when talking about trying to run the fastest times.

[moe5193]

may i remind u tht the pos maxima needs a turbo to beat a Z

[planeman223]

And the same goes for the Z my friend.

[moe5193]

wait r u for real z has 300 horses stock with way more torque than the maxima and ur gonna tell me a z needs a turbo to beat one? might wanaa rephrase that or somthing bc ur wrong jus bc u drive a maxima doesnt mean its the shit so please dont pull shit outta ur ass and post it here

[planeman223]

They both have the exact same engine. Your claims are bullshit, i have raced Z's. It's dead even.

[moe5193]

wht about the weight diffrence huh? not to mention that 350z are RWD while maximas are FWD. ur arguing with the wrong guy i kno a lot about cars and maximas not only perform bad but in my opinion they look like shit

[Streetracer96gtr]

That 350z is not stock.... the 04 models where vq35de that ran low 14s... he has a mod or two.

[mikescharger6983]

Sorry 1st gen 350z's (03-06) do mid 13's stock, ya i own one!

[Streetracer96gtr]

uhhh....no.... The Vq35de did low 14s... the vq35hr did mid 13s.... look it up. Unless you own some "factory freak"....

[mikescharger6983]

Mines an 03 retard all i had was intake and exhaust, not even anything special, did a 13.2 before i went turbo, so no, im sorry, go buy a z and race around in it before you talk your shit, its always the ones that dont own one that think they know everything about it, if u cant do even hi 13's in one, u cant drive, so go home!!!

[Streetracer96gtr]

WoW....do you realize how dumb you are? I said the VQ35DE Does low 14's stock and yes sometimes you can pull a high 13...... You saying that you have an intake and exhaust defeats the purpose of me arguing about this car being "stock" or not...

I own a turbo Z i know my shit...why be such a dick? Really how can a disagreement make me "talk shit"????

[mikescharger6983]

Go blow a dog dude, peace!!!

[ishqkapujari]

oh wow!! damn thats sad! lmao... i got a 01 maxima too!!! maxima forever baby!

[dineth]

ooooooooooo snaaapp!!! hahhaah grocery getter baby!!! lol i love maxima/i30/i35

[joosdawg]

man this was my favorite video back in the day but you still cant find me the music remember that?!

[AdmiralArcher]

OUCH! This grocery-getter is kickin' ass FAST.

[mikescharger6983]

ya notice 350z says STOCK and maxima has TURBO, ya, any turbo Z would THRASH a maxima, turn around, do cpr, bring it back to life, then kill it again before the finish line, i know, my Z's turbo, no maxima both n/a OR FI has ever beat me, not that a maxima is anything special anyway!!

[TheGuruStud]

STFU troll. If you knew anything you'd know a turbo maxima (3.5) would be as fast as yours

Quite a few 3.5 4th gen swaps that will embarass you. Same engine, so quit being a righteous dick. This is why people don't like Z owners.
