omfg! fucking props maxima! what's done to it?

[03Gs430]

Chewy Chiming in. JWT ECU w/ 7.2k Rev Limit, MEVI, YPipe + 2.5 Catback, Frankencar Intake, Exedy Clutch and Bald ass tires. Untuned, No Emanage (Didn't want to spend too much on the Daily Driver). Only ran high 13's w/ 100ish trap speed (On slicks of course). No BS, but could put some more attention into making this thing faster.

That Lexus is obviously a GS300. Listen to the audio. Do you hear a V8? My '01 GS430 is stock but when it revs you can clearly tell it's a V8. Now look at the speedo and the time. It took them 19 seconds (from 3 to 22) and they didn't even hit 100 mph. In 19 seconds my 430 would be well above 100 mph. Tests have shown they run at least 98 mph in the 1/4 @ around 14.3 seconds. Maximas have always been quick. Respect that. But this race is obviously between two 6 cylinders.

Lexus is a 4.3 v8

@TrqLvr It's A V8 Look At The Other Vids !

I dnt believe that max stayed with a gs430

[jaymax06ny]

He must be spraying or have way more mods. Gs400s are low 14s stock. My friend has a gs400 with mods and he runs low to mid 13s. I raced him with my 06 max and he beat me by a car. And mine is auto. Maximas and lexas are great cars.

[08civicSI4dr]

Sorry but there is no way that maxima can beat a Lexus gs400 or a gs430 because I own a gs400. U have races many cars and especially a slow stock maxima doesn't stand a chance unless he is squeezing or done a lot of after market parts to it. I ran high 14's all day. That stock maxima (my friend has one stick shift which bolt ons) still can't barely get into the high 14's.

Stock suspension is weak and tires were pretty bald at the time but meh.  No need to spend much on the DD just enough to give it the extra kick it needs.

@2004svtterminator LOL. Idiots making idiotic assumptions crack me up. This was a DD ya moron. No granny car is ever going to be faster than a race/track prepped car.

[chewabacha]

@Toyota4Life Just a correction and points to be made. 1) Maxima's only come in V6 in the U.S. 2) Bad launch @ 2 seconds into the vid and caught traction @ 5 seconds into the vid. 3) Shifted into 3rd @ 10 sec (W/ extended rev limit was at 75 mph). Just stating the facts lol.

[wootness3000]

Whoa, get some coilovers on there.. nice nose dive. New suspension will help with traction off of the line too.
