They don't make a 24" bias ply tire for a 16" wheel. I wanted to go with a 24.5" ET drag on a 15" wheel, but there is no way in hell a 15" wheel will fit. I had to grind the **** out of the brakes to fit a 16" wheel. haha
I'll bring it by on my Christmas break. I'm interested to see what this ****** makes. lol
No, this thing is slow as hell. Apparently my camaro was too fast for my own good though. lol

Sorry bro but I wanna see the time slips. My friend has a 2003 Maxima and is one helluva driver and my oldass LT1 that's on its last legs puts several car lengths on him. Given he has the 3.0 which is 30-40hp less than yours but so does my LT1 compared to LS1s.
You might say yours has "low end grunt" but so does my LT1. If low end grunt by itself could get a 13.3 I'd be doing that right now.

It was a '94 Z, automic with mid-length headers and full exhaust and in a great state of tune. That son of a bitch maxima surprises alot of people.

Also, I never said my car has "low end grunt"
Here is the slip and some pics of the car:
Time slip is hard to see, but I am in the right lane.
Here is the same slip with inverted colors, helps to see the numbers a little better on my monitor.
I've seen this maxima pull on my best friends old '94 z28 that was healthy as an ox on the freeway by 2 cars..and the lt1 wasn't gaining any of that ground back.

He has the 3.0. Maybe it's a lower model but I know for sure it's a 5th gen Maxima. He can drift that thing all day. He drives with one hand on steering wheel and the other on the hand brake. lol.
For what it is it's a quick car but it's hard to see how an extra 40 or so HP could possibly make it fast enough to be beating LS1s. Then again you have those bolt ons. It must've been pretty restricted to have gone that far with bolt ons though.
I take it your claim's legit but man that's pretty crazy. I remember when your generation of Maxima came out some car magazines while amazed at how fast it was complained it's no faster than the older one. I guess the 3.5 and 3.0 difference is day and night then.

AmirGTR, I have seen you post twice now in two different threads... Both times I wondered why you even posted.
A well driven ls1 with intake/exhaust/radials will be in the mid 12s. He is running barely faster than stock ls1s that are running street tires (spinning) and bone stock. If he put tires back on I would imagine he would be running very very high 13s... Take the other mods off and he is back in the 14s.
Before you post, think.
Nice times OP... That would **** a lot of people off.
